We love working with Megha. She has done a great job showing us the best way to communicate clearly and effectively with our doggy so the training really sinks in. She is also great at giving advice on all things dog related that we appreciate as first time dog owners.

Our family loves Out of the Bark dog training. Mega has been fabulous getting our crazy pup settled down and we have learned so much. Millie is so much better behaved and Mega made the training fun. 🥰
Our pup just graduated kindergarten. It's amazing the progress he's made at the tutelate of Mega. It was a very well run class. She teaches us how to properly train our dogs. I was impressed by the number of times a small correction in my technique yielded massive results.

I’m a local veterinarian, and we came to Out of the Bark with our rescue dog after puppy classes and lots of socialization. Even with consistent obedience and training work, she was still reactive in certain situations, and it was clear we needed a different approach. Out of the Bark was exactly what we were looking for. Dan worked with our whole family and helped us shift how we relate to our dog—not just asking for better obedience, but adjusting boundaries, allowing the right kind of freedom, and using her natural instincts to help manage arousal. The focus on connection, check-ins, and using her own instincts made a real difference for all of us. This is much more than obedience training. It addresses the root of the behavior (and as a bonus, her obedience improved naturally along the way) We’re incredibly grateful for the guidance and would highly recommend Out of the Bark.
I highly recommend Dan, he is very down to earth and was great at communicating a language between me and my animals.
