Family Pupz helped us to create a Puppy Yoga event for our residents. Tanya coordinated with rescue organizations that would provide the puppies, created an Eventbrite link, brought a yoga teacher to lead the class, and even created marketing materials for the event for us! It was hands down one of the absolute best events we have ever held for residents. Even better was the fact that because of Tanya, we were able to help out puppies in need.
Her compassion for the animals is evident and infectious! She handled the puppies with knowledge and compassion during the event, and did a wonderful job at leading the whole thing. We would be more than happy to welcome Family Pupz back to our community. It was an absolute pleasure to work with them professionally as well as during our puppy yoga event!

Tanya helped working with my little puppy on some of the basic manners. We were able to get him to improve greatly on jumping and loose leash walking and have continued with the training given on our own to further his skills. One thing that was very helpful is she provided handouts that contained a summary of all the information we learned so that we could continue the training in between sessions. Secondly, she was very good at following up with us and offered other sessions such as cheaper group classes.

Tanya is a WONDERFUL dog trainer. She is polite, courteous, and flexible with her scheduling. She was very helpful in teaching us about canine behavior in general and the idiosyncrasies of our sweet puppy, Luci. I would recommend her services to anyone seeking canine behavioral training!

Tanya was fantastic! My wife and I got a new puppy, and were in need of training. We reached out to Tanya at Family Pupz (through a good friend/happy referral), and we couldn't be more pleased! Lambeau has shown tremendous progress over the past 8 weeks, and is now well trained and behaves like an angel :) I strongly recommend Tanya and Family Pupz for all your dog training needs!

Tanya is amazing! She has a very warm and calming personality which made my anxious little guy feel immediately comfortable with her. I really liked her style of training with the focus on positive reinforcement and learned a lot. Tanya is very passionate about her work and love that she volunteers some of her time to train shelter dogs with behavioral challenges to ensure they get adopted. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to close friends and family. Thank you!
