She's very reliable, resourceful, and most importantly knowledgeable when it comes to dogs. She's the dog whisperer. My puppy Victory literally worships the ground Victoria walks on. If you are serious about having your dog trained well hire Victoria. If you're a first time dog owner, buy 12 sessions. We've come a long way from where we started. Victory and I went from the puppy struggles of her crying relentlessly in her crate to me now being able to be in the same room while she's in her crate and not crying. The struggles of leash training to now being able to eat out on the patio at restaurants. Investing in your dogs training is so important. I promise you you won't be disappointed by hiring Victoria as your dog trainer.

Never was able to find him a good home, Ended up keeping him. Around July of last year, figured it was time to get him some training. Took him to a few trainers, they all classified him as "A Reactive Dog" and he was untrainable. Saw an advertisement for Emerald Meadows, sent Belynda an email explaining the situation. She took him on with no questions asked. The transformation with Cooper has been amazing. She not only spends training time with your dog, but she also trains the human on how to train your dog. I highly recommend her services. Cooper and I will continue to go to her classes.

A year after our first meeting, was having problems, and begging for an intervention. Over a year later, with similar problems (no blame on Manners Unleashed), I got the "good luck in your search for other solutions" e-mail. I really felt left out in the cold, right when I really needed help. I have recommended several friends to Chris for mild behavior problems with great results...for more persistent/serious problems, I felt that the desire to develop ongoing change was missing and left to chance. Dealing with a reactive dog is a life-long challenge that needs a commitment from all parties: dog, owner, and trainer. Updates 6/2013: Chris contacted me several months later and did a short board and train to follow up on our request. Not very timely, but very helpful and professional.

I came to Patti with concerns of reactivity and negative leash behaviors. Patti was the perfect person to go on this journey with. She is thoughtful, kind and so knowledgeable- so much quality information and personalized training techniques were given to me in our first session. She followed up with an in-depth guide and assessment for me to work from, which I really appreciate having this information to consistently reference. It's only the first week and my dog has had a complete change in her leash behavior and her general demeanor, I'm just in awe. We will be continuing on with Patti for the foreseeable future, I'm so grateful for her and will preach her life-changing work until the end of time. 20/10 cannot recommend enough.

I had adopted her from a rescue organization that didn't tell me the whole story about her past which caused her to be leash aggressive and nervous around other dogs. With just 6 weeks of this course, she had come so far, amd Cayce had set us up with a whole host of tips and tricks to work on with her so she could continue to progress after class was over. I only took off one star because one week Cayce wasn't the instructor and it was unfortunately our last class so I wasn't able to chat with her about what our next steps would be. The other trainer was good too, I just wish that I had known she wouldn't be there so that I could have had a last conversation with her!

I sought help from the rescue society and they were able to give me some tips, but nothing really to help the main problem. They recommended that I find a trainer that could help with the aggression, which is how I found out about Cayce. I explained the problem to Cayce and we agreed to start off with a private lesson. The private lesson was enlightening. She gave me some information on the breed that I had not heard and that gave me some insight on some subtle behaviors. Cayce also emphasized how I should interact with the dog and that definitely made a huge impact in how we have bonded. We worked on some leash behavior and of course, my dog in a new situation and without any other dogs around, was the perfect angel. We agreed to just kind of boot camp her and get her into the next group class so we could work on her behavior around other dogs. A few days later, we walked up to the group class where there was a good 12-15 other people with their dogs. My dog again was totally chill and I was feeling kind of optimistic. We walked past other dogs and she didn't react at all. So far so good. We started out with basic commands which my dog has limited proficiency. She does sit when she is sufficiently bribed, but not much beyond that. The class was working on stay and I'm just kind of going along with it and thinking when is she going to lose it and lunge after another dog, so I'm saying, "stay, staaaay, stay" and watching her like a hawk. I'm sure I was pretty funny to watch. Cayce's assistant then comes up to me and says, "Okay, let's try that again, but not so creepy, kay?" Everybody in my little group is looking at me like, "what did you do?" Hey, this is my first class too. I don't know what I'm doing, so give me a break okay. He then tells me I need only say stay once and if she doesn't, then correct. I'm like okay, that's all you needed to say. So, we move on and about 45 minutes into the class, my girl has just about had it. Out of the blue, she decides she doesn't like the lab mix sitting a few yards away. She lets out a huge bark and does a little lunge at the pup. Super. I figure this isn't good, but it kind of is because Cayce can see her bad behavior first hand. Cayce doesn't really say anything and continues on and I figure this is something we can discuss later. So about fifteen minutes later, we happen to be next to Cayce as she is explaining dog behavior and her dog is performing trick after trick to everyone's amazement. Well, not quite everyone. At some point, my dog just had enough and jumped straight up and let out this menacing bark and lunged at Cayce's dog. I pulled her back and tried to contain her while also shrinking in utter embarrassment. Cayce didn't acknowledgement the outburst and continued her talk. At the end, she asked if there were any questions and after waiting my turn, I said, "Um yeah, how do I get her to stop doing that?" Cayce looks at me and says, "tell her don't do that." She then turns back to the class and says farewell and walks away. Don't do that? Wow, why didn't I think of that? (I did...quite a bit. Maybe I was doing it creepily or something). Never went back. Look, she educated me on my dog and there were some definite benefits to that. Cayce's dog is obviously very well trained and does some amazing tricks. That would be pretty cool if my dog could do that someday, but for right now I want to take my dog with me and not ever worry that she is going to attack some other dog. I've found another trainer and will start in again. There were some benefits from our time with Cayce and I'm sure other people in different situations will find benefit as well.

We were unsure which program to choose but went with the off-leash program, and it was the best decision. Mack went from a high-energy puppy who struggled with listening, jumping, and leash pulling to a well-mannered, confident dog. With a one-year-old at home, having hands-free control over our large dog has been life-changing. The program's results have been night and day for our family. You can tell Joshua and Kayla truly care for and bond with every dog that comes through their programs, which made us feel so comfortable trusting them with Mack. An added bonus is their boarding option for program graduates, which includes a training refresh. It's a relief knowing we can leave Mack with people we trust while we're away. We can't recommend Joshua, Kayla, and Concierge K-9 Training enough. Their expertise and care have truly transformed our lives--and Mack's!
