We had the best time at a group puppy class! We learned so much from Tanya in just one hour about how to positively train our puppy not to jump. We can't wait to take another class and work with Tanya again!

We had an amazing time at one of Tanya's puppy socialization courses this morning! She is wonderful! We appreciate her friendly approach to training, her patience, and her positive reinforcement style. Our pup is very high energy and needs a lot of obedience work (5 months old, lab mix) but Tanya was helping him make progress in a sorry time - even with the distraction of other dogs and people in a busy park. We can highly recommend her services and look forward to more training with Family Pupz!

My wife and I have two dogs; one was disobedient and one was fearful. Our dogs immediately fell in love with Tanya after our first meeting. Her calm, yet effective training style made a huge impact on our dogs’ behavior. Not only did Tanya’s training program reduce our dog’s fearfulness, but also made them much more obedient. I would definitely recommend Family Pupz to anyone looking for a great trainer. Thank you so much for everything Tanya.

We hired Family Pupz for their Doggy Doula service and we couldn't be more happy with our choice to do so! Tanya brought us much needed peace-of-mind as we prepared to welcome our first human baby to our family. Thank you, Tanya! Carlos and Tino adore you!

I was referred to Tanya by an overwhelming amount of recommendations from an online moms group. I had a new baby and my dog, Miah was almost impossible to walk on a leash due to excessive pulling and a mean squirrel obsession. I couldn’t even walk her on my own let alone with my other dog and a stroller until we met Tanya. We did a 9 session package, and by the end of the month I was able to put the baby in a carrier and walk both dogs confidently. We also worked with the stroller with the one dog and that is easy as well now. My dog would get so happy when Tanya got to the house knowing she was going to get a walk, some treats, and lots of attention. Our biggest concern was that we wanted a cruelty free dog trainer that could teach us how to handle our strong but friendly dog and we definitely found that with Tanya!
