My dog, Daisy, was chaotic and I was seriously considering rehoming her before we started working with Maggie. Now she’s my amazing everywhere buddy. Maggie gave both of us the skills to take on the world together and I have never had a closer connection with a dog. Daisy is the mascot and greeting committee of the office and everyone always remarks on how incredibly well behaved she is.

Maggie is a fantastic trainer. She’s constantly observing, adapting, and adjusting her approach as she gets to know your dog and their unique needs. She puts more thought and care into her work than most, and any pet parent would be lucky to have the chance to work with her.

Maggie was exactly what we needed to give our puppy a good start. We thought we knew what we were doing - we were WRONG! I’m so thankful for her puppy program for teaching us how to do socialization the right way and for educating us on how to be the best puppy parents possible.
