FirstBarkMelanie is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled with her training technique. She was able to get my two reactive dogs (one significantly older) to be calm, on barkers and amazingly well behaved in public settings. She was a life changer for them. I highly recommend her.

Melanie is awesome. I came to her when I rescued my girl Mercy last spring. Mercy was very timid, anxious,and fearful rescue, but with Melanie's patience, calmness, and overall experience with rescue dogs, Mercy is more confident then ever. The studio was a great place to learn and as Mercy and I progressed in our training, Melanie met us at various stores to work Mercy and get her use to different environments. Melanie answered any and all of my questions. As long as you follow Melanie's recommendations and put in the work with your pet, you will see the results. Highly recommend!
Melanie has been amazing with our rescue dog, Ollie. As first-time rescue owners, we wanted him to feel comfortable and well-behaved in our home, and she understood his needs right away. Her patience, guidance, and kindness made such a difference. We’re so grateful for everything she’s done! Highly recommend her!
I highly recommend Melanie with Good Dawg Training! She is extremely knowledgeable and helped my puppy tremendously with his basic obedience. She had answers to all our questions. We were amazed how fast she taught our puppy new things. Besides being great at training, she is extremely kind. We’re so grateful for her and her expertise!

I highly recommend Melanie of Good Dawg NJ. We rescued Luna, a Lab/mix who had some discipline issues. Luna walked poorly on a leash and was reactive to most strangers. Luna quickly became attached to Melanie. Melanie has a special gift of being able to communicate with canines. I appreciated that the training sessions were individually tailored to my pet's needs. Melanie knew the exact approach to get Luna to focus and follow commands. Melanie is extremely professional and super caring. Thank- you Melanie, Luna is now a better version of herself.
