I spoke with Mandy in a preliminary consultation about my dog, some concerns and potential training. We spoke for 30 minutes and determined my dog was just fine. He’s a bit spoiled and probably gets too much attention if that’s possible but he doesn’t need the training they offer. It’s clear Mandy’a focus is on what dogs need, not just about making a sale. I appreciate her honestly.
i cant say enough good about Clever Canine from the owner to staff. as long as you actually work your dog they will get your pup to the level you want out of them.

Response to the owner: This rating was left at 3:19 am because I was scarred from my experience with one of your trainers who abused my dog. So yeah, it's really not that "strange". You guys know exactly what happened. Years later and my dog struggles with severe anxiety and it was at the hands of one of your trainers. He may have been fired but you can't undue what has been done and your response to my HONEST review is shameful. Own it and take responsibility.

Our experience with Clever Canine Dog Training and specifically the owner Mandy has been EXCEPTIONAL!! We rescued our dog that came in as a stray to a shelter in Detroit. The one year old pup had never been socialized and was reactive to strangers and had other minor behavioral issues. We attempted to do some private at home training with a couple of well-known training companies - but they all ended badly, and my family getting really stressed out. That's when we approached Mandy. We cannot say enough good things about how AMAZING Mandy has been. She has a very keen understanding of dogs as well as people's psychology. We signed up for the "Great in 8" program. Mandy, very expertly, guided us and our pup through 8 weeks of training and several offline discussions on the phone and email. Today, our pup is EXTREMELY well behaved. Mandy and her team have a lot of compassion for dogs. She always advocates for the dog and taught us how to understand our pup's mindset and provide the best care for the dog. By the end of the training, we were much more closer to our pup, and he was much more integrated with our family. We went from being stressed out every day to being a joyful household within two months - it has been miraculous to say the least!! Their day training service (day care + training) is a very good supplement to the Great in Eight program and our pup LOVED going there! I would whole heartedly recommend anyone with any kind of dog behavioral issues (or who just need obedience training) to take their dog to Clever Canine Dog training - and experience the same amazing results that we have.
