We needed help and we got it! Dan is so patient with the humans and insightful about dogs and was able to help us get two family dogs who did not get along, to get along. Our walks are also so much less stressful now that we know how to keep the reactive dogs better focused! Highly recommend, thanks Dan!

Megha and Dan are the best trainers for every stage of your dog’s life. Megha works with our Golden Retriever puppy, and at just four months old, he’s already well on his way to becoming the perfect dog. Dan works with our six-year-old Golden, who has struggled with behavioral issues, and the changes we’ve seen in him have been incredible. They offer excellent group classes as well, and the support extends far beyond training sessions. Honestly, we consider Megha and Dan part of our family now. Thank you, Megha and Dan, for everything you’ve done for our dogs and our family. I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Just had an amazing experience meeting with Megha. So very grateful for her help and support. Had gotten a very young puppy from a rescue. However, as an energetic older woman was concerned bc of his total lack of housebreaking which was hard bc I care for young grandkids at my home. She assessed my situation and basically spoke the truth very kindly to me and suggested that she would be happy to work with me and my doggie but given my situation I would be better off returning this puppy to the rescue while he was still young to give him a chance to be adopted by a younger family who had older kids. I realized immediately that she was a professional looking at my situation objectively and rationally much more so than I could. And I realized she is right. I highly recommend Megha. She takes a wholistic view of the family situation and is less concerned about making money than about doing the right thing for the dog and the family. And she is not afraid to speak the truth. She even offered to discuss her assessment with the rescue. Highly recommended and many thanks. I feel so grateful to have met her.
