Tanya Lim is an amazing dog trainer and totally helped our little puppy become his best self. During the puppy training course we worked on all sorts of things from basic manners to loose leash walking to troubleshooting nipping issues. We also learned valuable tactics for recall, socialization, and how to calm the little guy when he's excited. Tanya was so kind and flexible with her scheduling coming to meet my husband and I with the pup in various places from our home to the park and around the neighborhood. Her hands-on approach made the experience so helpful so we could watch her and learn. With Tanya's help, I can confidently say we can enjoy our pup to the fullest as we've set him up for a good life where we exhibits desirable behaviors. I highly recommend Family Pups to anyone in the Denver area, no matter what stage your dog may be in.

Tanya is incredible! She is extremely knowledgable, skilled, and passionate in her work. She listened thoroughly to what our wants and needs were for our dog during the initial consultation and then recommended a custom training approach to help show us what working together would looks like (along with setting realistic expectations about our role in the process!). My partner and I are extremely happy with the progress our dog made and our own comfort levels in managing her anxiety triggers and better being able to communicate with her, which makes life easier for all of us. I can't recommend Family Pupz enough!

Working with Tanya was amazing! She is truly a dog whisperer and helped my dog with his human anxiety and barking tendencies. I would recommend Tanya to everyone. She helps you understand the basics of dog training as well and helps you build a solid foundation you can use going forward with any training issues you may encounter later on.

We’ve had several sessions with Tanya for our fearful dog and she’s amazing. Even during our consultation session I was left impressed with her knowledge and professionalism compared to other trainers we’ve worked with or talked to. Very happy we found her!
Puppy tax included. :)

Tanya was amazing helping me with Zeke! When we first met, she took the time to really get to know us and what I was looking to work on with him. She is very responsive and helped out when I had questions between sessions. Her style is very effective and it's clear that she cares a lot about her clients and their success! I would definitely recommend!
