Wolf Moon Dogs

Before we picked up our Border Collie puppy we knew we wanted Alana to help us train him so that we could provide the best life we could for him. I was referred to Alana from a mutual friend and I cannot say enough about how amazing this process has been for our lives especially for our puppy. We are no longer running around after him with his endless energy trying to tire him out with no success. Alana and her program have truly been life changing for us and I don’t say that lightly. I completely recommend Alana and we are so thankful to her. Wolfmoon Dogs is an amazing program run by an amazing trainer and person. Thank you Alana!!

Let me start by saying that before my husband and I got “our” first dog, we had already agreed that Alana would train him. Although we had both grown up with dogs, we agreed that a solid foundation and knowledge of commands was critical, and that we wanted to enlist the help of a professional. We had known Alana for years and several of our friends had their dogs trained by her, so this was a no brainer. We sent our 8 month old European Doberman to Alana to work on being a well-mannered young Dobe that would quite literally know his “place” in our home, go on walks without dragging you along, and just overall have a calmer state of mind. As a pushy and stubborn dog with a high drive, we knew that training was essential. Alana is not only wonderful throughout her time with the dog, but before and after as well! There was never a time that I felt judged or wrong for asking a question or her opinion on something dog related. Throughout Dollar’s time with Alana, it was wonderful to see her social media updates and see how he was progressing. After his training, Alana spent hours talking to us about his e-collar, commands, and walking Dollar up and down the street. She has also checked in to see how he is doing now that he is back home. We appreciate all the time, effort, and patience that Alana spent and used on our boy! Do not hesitate to send your dog for a board and train with her; there is no one better!

As a first time dog owner, I was pretty nervous about “getting it right”. I had adopted an amazing Pit mix who had been in a local shelter for a full year. (I’ve got three kiddos and a full time 24/7 on call job). Wolf Moon Dogs was highly recommended by several local pet agencies. We loved our new family member- but her energy was a lot to tame. After three weeks with Alana, we felt like we could really connect with Jazzy- she was her same lovable self, but with a whole new level of confidence in herself and in us! The importance of purposeful relaxation was significant (to the whole family;) I’m not sure who learned more- jazzy or me, but either way Alana is our teacher and I love the new relationship we’ve built as a whole family. We love boundaries ❤️

I can’t thank Alana enough for the foundation she has helped me build with my dog, Fig! Fig was nervous in every new situation and even in not so new situations, she just couldn’t relax unless she was right by my side. Alana helped Fig find a calmer state of mind and gave me the tools and knowledge to continue in this journey with my dog! Fig’s confidence has grown tremendously! We haven’t done too many outings yet, but we have made some coffee shop trips and many many car rides, and let me just say Fig is a whole new level of chill! She’s still an excitable wiggle worm, but I now have the tools and understanding of how to work with that! Walks are easier and more enjoyable for both of us. I can now move freely around my house without her constantly following me and needing to be by my side (which is good for me but also has to be such a relief on her mindset). I’m looking forward to going on hikes with my girl and just enjoying life together! Thanks again, Alana!
