I can't recommend FamilyPupz enough! Tanya came very highly recommended by my vet and I couldn't be happier. I signed up for her 9 week package for my new rescue puppy and she helped teach me how to train my dog on the basics of loose leash walking, sit, stay, come here, attention, recall, and other commands. I love the one on one instruction and how Tanya helped both with in home instruction and habits as well as sessions in local parks and dog parks.

Tanya is the best! Shortly after I adopted Koda he started showing signs of separation anxiety and leash reactivity. I purchased a 9 session package to focus on Koda’s separation anxiety. He use to bark and whine the second I stepped foot outside and would continue for hours. After working with Tanya, Koda’s separation anxiety improved significantly. He may whine once or twice when I leave, but he calms down quickly.
About a year later I purchased a 6 session package to focus on Koda’s leash reactivity. Koda’s leash reactivity is better, but there is there is still room for improvement. That being said, Tanya provided me with the tools I need to continue training myself. I’m confident that if I continue training myself his leash reactivity will continue to improve.

I took our puppy to a socializing class with Erin and we loved it. She was really nervous at first since it was her first time meeting other dogs, but she opened up really quickly and had an amazing time. We already signed up for the next class :)
