Zoe was amazing! Our dog Piper has learned new skills to help with anxiety and overexcitement! I would recommend her to anybody!

Misfits Dog Training has been an amazing support in training our mixed breed puppy. We started with a 4-session private puppy training package that helped us learn how to engage with Teddy and to begin working with him on crate training, house training, and loose leash walking. He recently finished a 3-week Board and Train Obedience program that has set the foundation for several basic commands, including place, sit-stay, down, and crate. He’s also developing with his threshold training and learning to wait until he is released to leave his crate or go through doorways and we’re also beginning the process of heel walking. It’s made such a huge difference in his behavior, reducing his leash pulling, jumping, and just general behavior. The follow up sessions since the Board and Train have been great for reinforcing and continuing his training. It’s great to know that at 6 months old, Teddy is well on his way to being a well-behaved member of our family who we can enjoy for years to come thanks to the help of Zoe and Christine at Misfits Dog Training!
Zoe and her team are THE best. After 3 dog trainers that didn’t help with my reactive dog I tried Misfits and I finally got the tools I need to keep my dog under control. They have been so patient with me and continue to support me with different questions. I wish I had found them first and really can’t speak highly enough about them! Worth every penny and more!!
John was the best money we could spend on our new family member. He is obedient and a great dog in and out the house now. Thank you!
