As a dog trainer/behavior consultant myself, I really appreciate Meaghan’s skill, compassion, and overall work with clients & their dogs. I highly recommend them for group classes and puppy/adolescent socials!
Ray worked with us to help curb our dogs disobedient and guarding behavior. He provided us with the material and techniques so we can continue our training. Ray really knows how to communicate with your dog and customize training to suit your needs. Highly recommend!

As a giant breed dog owner, I know firsthand how critical it is to have a strong training foundation that begins at puppyhood. Mae has worked with 4 of my Mastiffs over the years both through classes, socialization groups and private training, and has transformed them from shy, nervous puppies into confident, well-adjusted adults that thrive both at home and in public. They are a confident, personable and extremely knowledgeable trainer who has years of experience with every size and breed of dog you can think of. What I like most about dogflower is Mae’s ability to communicate complex ideas (behavior, science behind things) in a way that is easy for anyone to understand. No matter the issue, Mae has always been there ready to help! Would 100% recommend.

I cannot recommend Meaghan with dog flower enough! She has helped me tremendously with my dog’s resource guarding issues, and the progress we’ve made is truly amazing. Her approach is calm, patient, and incredibly effective. She takes the time to explain everything clearly and always makes sure both my dog and I feel comfortable and confident. Not only is she knowledgeable and skilled, but she is also kind, understanding, and genuinely invested in our success. My dog absolutely adores her, which speaks volumes about her natural connection with animals. Now that she’s starting out in her new location, I’m thrilled to continue working with her and support her growth. Anyone looking for a compassionate, competent, and trustworthy trainer will be in excellent hands with her. Five stars all around! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
