“Madeline is a fantastic dog trainer — we highly recommend working with her. She has been conscientious about going over all the areas where we might need her help with our dog, Gordo, and explaining what does and doesn’t work and the reasons why. She tailors her strategies specifically to address Gordo’s quirks and has been so helpful in helping us navigate raising a toddler while keeping Gordo happy, too! She has also been such a calming presence for us and our dog while working together. Gordo is always happier after she comes by!”

“We cannot recommend Madeline highly enough.

We worked with Madeline after adopting our 5-year-old chihuahua, Remy, who was extremely scared in the home, reactive with resource guarding, and frequently fighting with our other dog. He was also very reactive on the leash. We truly felt like we had tried everything and were struggling to help him feel safe.

From the very beginning, Madeline’s approach stood out. She is incredibly calm and patient, uses positive reinforcement, and clearly explains each step of the training process with actionable plans we could actually follow. She quickly built trust with both of our dogs, which made a huge difference.

Thanks to her work, our dogs can now peacefully coexist with no aggression or reactivity toward one another. Remy’s leash behavior has also improved significantly. Pulling and reactivity to other animals are far more manageable now. Most importantly, Remy is noticeably more relaxed and confident in his daily life.

Madeline not only helped transform Remy’s behavior, but also gave us the tools and confidence to be better dog owners. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone dealing with behavioral challenges with their beloved pets. She has been worth every penny.”

Madeline is great! Most importantly, my reactive dog loves her and they instantly built trust. That alone was such a win for us, but she's helped us work towards even more wins! Her training is customized to my dog's needs and she always comes in referencing science-backed training. She's helped me learn how to closely read my dog's body language and how to manage stressful situations so that my girl can succeed! She's always willing to go the extra step (bringing a stuffed dog or a friend over) to help with our training. Grem absolutely loves her!
