Miri has been a wonderful adviser to my partner and me as we and our new dog have acclimated to one another. We got a rescue dog with a high prey drive and high activity level who was transitioning from a rural to a suburban/urban environment. Miri provided lots of great training on basic obedience, loose leash walking, recall, interaction with cats and dogs, and many other areas. She was great to work with: flexible, communicative, warm, funny. She also boarded our dog and continued training while we were out of town for a couple of weeks. We are so thankful we found Miri! Highly recommend!

Miri is a wonderful and effective dog trainer who makes sure that the owner thoroughly understands the logic behind behaviors and behavior modification and how to do it. She is realistic and also very positive and encouraging! My dog's behavior started changing positively after only one session. Highly recommended!

We're very thankgul for the job that Miri has done with our pug Max and us. We came to her because Max was lunging and barking at all dogs. The walks with him were very stressful; we couldn't take him to walks in the park because he will go crazy at the sight of any dog. Within a few sessions, Max was able to be around Miri's dogs without reacting, and within a few weeks, Max went to the dog park for the first time!!! He was off leash, around dogs, close to them big and small, and he didn't bark or lunge at them. This was a big moment for us because we thought this was never going to happen. He still has more work to do and progress, but the progress we seemed so far is amazing. Since the consultation, Miri has given us tools that we can use, and thanks to her we now feel more confident working with Max and take him places. In addition, Miri worked basic obedience commands, and also worked with us at home to deal with Max barking at cars that drive by it. Miri was very patient and accomodated the training sessions to our schedules and to what we wanted to get out of each session. - Mayra

We had the best experience with Miri and her board and train program! We recently adopted a new rescue pup and she took the best care of him while we were away on vacation and taught him some great manners/basic obedience. I loved knowing he was in her hands while we were gone- not only learning, but having fun too. She sent pics and updates along with training videos for us to watch once we took over. She clearly loves what she does and we can't wait to continue sessions with her!

We had a great in home consultation with Miri focused on our dog’s reactivity and barking. She had done a good amount of prep work beforehand, reading through all the notes I had shared in advance. She immediately demonstrated useful techniques for managing attention barking and we saw our dog adjust her behavior over the course of an hour. Miri left us with useful tips and methods for working on our dog’s reactivity on our own. She was also easy to communicate with and to coordinate with.
