Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
How well do you work with middle-age dogs? Our six year old rescue is pretty traumatized and would benefit from one-on-one!
Dogs of ALL ages are welcome in [most] classes and dogs of ANY age can benefit from one-on-one private sessions, if that's what you're looking for. We've helped MANY rescues with varying degrees of trauma over the years! Please feel free to stop in and discuss your needs with our team or give a call and let us talk you through the services we have to offer.

Amanda and her staff are top notch. Knowledgeable, competent, caring and available. I found their training methods and ability to teach them highly effective. I adopted a dog that at 5 months old had been in 3 homes and never worked with. Amanda and staff were lifesavers. Thank you.

So happy we went with Amanda Gagnon training for our pup! The puppy socials were critical in safely socializing our dog as a puppy. Additionally we had a few private sessions with Gwen, one of the trainers, where we worked on leash training in Central Park. Gwen was great, engaging, and really took the time to focus on our specific needs. We have the best dog EVER thanks to Amanda Gagnon Dog Training.
Amazing company! This place does fabulous work with dogs - 10/10 recommend them for both puppy training and all your more stubborn adult dog needs
Gwen is such an asset at Amanda Gangon Dog Training! Our dog, Sydney, participated in Gwen’s puppy kindergarten class. She was so patient with the dogs and the owners and shared so many extremely helpful tips and tricks. Gwen is very knowledgeable in dog training/behavior and is always willing to help, whether that’s in class or answering a quick question via text.
