Lauren is amazing at understanding how dogs think and knows how to reinforce good behavior (not bad behavior) to elicit change. Owner education is a big part of her program. She wants everyone on board and gives you all the tools you need to be successful. It’s the best investment we made to have a well behaved dog. No more pulling on the leash, incessant barking, and jumping on guests. She loves her work, and it shows.

Third Coast Training gave me the techniques to make my walk with my dog enjoyable. TCT evaluated where my dog and I were at and asked what I wanted to get out of the training the tailored lessons to meet our needs. I Realized it was about changing my interactions with my dog and consistency. I would highly recommend TCT

Lauren is exactly what our dog Dudley needed. He had been to a trainer before who didn’t know how to handle his personality (he is very smart, but very stubborn). Lauren knew exactly what to do to get this little guy in line and is very talented at catering training toward a dogs specific needs. She spent a ton of time with us when we came to pick Dudley up to make sure we understood exactly how to be successful on our own and the first follow up appointment was extremely helpful as well. We’re two days in and already so impressed and happy with Dudley’s results. Thank you, Lauren!!

I am not the most strict dog owner, but the lessons and advice received from Third Coast are to thank for the quality of relationship I have with my dog today. I am grateful to have a trainer that loves my dog as much as I do!

Lauren is an excellent resource for all dog issues and for preventing any! I have worked with her and have had my adopted dog Nala training with her. She is very skilled and confident with challenging dogs… which mine is! She has helped me so much with my own confidence in handling my dog. I would highly recommend her and her business for any type of training.
