Our pup has serious health conditions that require careful monitoring and management, and Theresa is knowledgeable, vigilant, and quick to contact us if there is an issue or concern. She truly cares for the animals she works with, and our girl (who is picky!) absolutely adores her. Theresa is 100% reliable, and is great about being flexible with unexpected schedule changes. Our girl really is the love of our lives, and I can honestly say that Theresa is a blessing - we couldn't go to work without her! :-) We're so thankful for everything she does for us, and again, we can't recommend her highly enough.

The dog was completely uncivilized, having grown up on the streets of Kosovo her whole life. Within several training sessions, there was a noticeable difference and Corinn was able to start transforming my foster into a special dog any family would be proud of. I since went on to adopt a rescue of my own and I once again sought out Corinn's expertise and enrolled my bernadoodle, Hannah, in Corinn's Puppy 2 Class. My sweet girl learned patience, obedience and how to listen to my commands while being distracted by other dogs in the room. I believe my relationship with Hannah has deepened to a mutual respect of each other because I acquired the skills and training to raise a well-behaved and happy dog. In addition, Corinn is well-versed in the best toys, whistles, harnesses, treats and will inform you where to buy them. Corinn also has a holistic approach to helping dogs and humans alike with their health. She has a deep knowledge on dog nutrition and how to make home cooked meals for them. I have gained a wealth of knowledge to better my own health, as well as be a better dog mom to my Hannah girl. To me, tho cost of the class is a bargain for what you will get in return...a well-mannered dog that you will now have to show off and be proud of. Corinn is completely devoted to her craft of training dogs to their potential, has dedicated her life to it, which all comes across the first time you meet her.

There are not enough words to describe how grateful I am to have met Danny. My dog Cookie was a…read morerescue. As much as we loved her, I was very close to sending her back to the shelter. Cookie was loving but she had a TERRIBLE nipping problem (along with other issues). She had gone through 2 trainers already and nothing was working. With a 7 year old child in the house, Cookie spent most of her time in her crate. I just could not risk my daughter accidentally getting hurt. Cookie went with Danny for 4 weeks and she came back a whole new dog. Before Danny, cookie was never allowed to roam the house. I am forever grateful for Danny's patience. He would send me updates, pictures and videos on Cookies progress. He even followed up with another lesson to show my dad how to properly handle Cookie at home. Thank you Danny! You saved Cookie.

She cares so much for animals and the way they are treated and trained. She focuses on positive reinforcement and is thoughtful in how she responds and interacts with dogs. She helped us counteract some of our puppies negative behaviors with replacing them with more acceptable behaviors. Both of our Labradoodles have also stayed with Melanie for Board and Train (multiple times). Each time our pups returned they were calm and ready to show off their new skills (like staying on their beds during meal times). She also sent us photos and videos to show us the progress they made while we were away. We just love the positive influence Melanie has had on our pups. We also have 2 children and Melanie worked with both of them to teach them training techniques they could use with our dogs. We have recommend several friends to Melanie who have also had great experiences with her training their dogs as well. We highly recommend Melanie and Wagmore dog training!

Melanie is amazing. My pitbull had some PTSD resulting from a traumatic experience he'd experienced…read moreon a plane trip a few years back. After seeing him a few times the Vet recommended a strong treatment of prozac to help alleviate his symptoms. However, before going the chemical route I wanted to try solving his symptoms in a more holistic manner. After a few renowned trainers told me he was a lost cause, trainers who probably build their reputation based on the easiest of cases, Melanie Bennet entered the picture. We had a consultation and Melanie was compassionate with my dog and helped me understand his mindset as well as a training regimen that could help him improve. She was very realistic in managing my expectations and helped me understand what was achievable in the training and what would be a stretch. I enrolled my dog in a 4-week training bootcamp where Melanie focused on teaching my dog relaxation techniques. Some things I observed after my first visit is that he would lay down a lot, I thought he was tired or scared but then learned Melanie trained him to do that whenever he was overly aroused. Similarly he would stop moving his tail to calm himself down. Throughout successive visits I observed how my dog was more composed and relaxed. He was also paying more attention to me so he could follow my lead. After the first three weeks he had been able to learn to calm himself down enough to reinforce the basics and learn a few cute tricks. He learned how to walk on a gentle leader and how to spin and touch a cone on command. When he came back home people could not believe what they were seeing. I no longer had to hide my dog in my bedroom whenever I had visitors in an attempt to shield them from my dog's anxiety. As long as the visitors knew the ground rules to avoid arousing my dog too much, we had a perfect interaction, something that would have been impossible before. Furthermore, the training did not end there. Melanie provided extensive documentation on what I could do to reinforce and continue his training, which was very useful for me as I did not know how to avoid undoing all of Melanie's fantastic work. Overall, I highly recommend Melanie to any person who wants to have their dog properly trained, especially is that dog needs special attention. Melanie is a professional of the highest level of loves her job and is dedicated to the welfare of the dogs she trains. In the 8 years I've had my dog, and the countless trainers that have tried to help him, I had never met anyone like her. She has my full trust when it comes to my dog.

This morning I scheduled a grooming service for my champagne colored Havanese puppy, who was full of knots created in most part from the harness he's been wearing. He also happened to be beyond dirty having spent a week in NYC. Joe, the owner, gave him the full royal treatment, returning him to his pristine self with a clean face and cute squared off ears. Only wish I could upload a photo because he looks wicked cute. Not only does Joe have the perfect disposition for the grooming business, he is committed to ensuring you walk out deliriously happy with his service. We were blown away. Talk about make Petco feel like a production line. And the crazy thing was his VIP service was actually cheaper than what we pay at Petco. Go figure!! Can't say enough good things about our experience.
