Reviews for Man's Best Friend

Mar 2024

This review is a long time coming. We had both of our dogs trained here, and had an incredible experience. It’s been two years and I constantly get comments from people on how well trained/behaved my dogs are. At the end of each the dogs training time, the hours spent “training” my husband and I was outstanding. We even had a follow up lesson to get us a little more trained/familiar with walking both dogs. Shanon and all the trainers that I met were so loving, caring, and yet had a firmness about what they expected from the dogs. Both of my dogs responded great. I would highly recommend Man’s Best Friend (and I have)!

I’ve had two dogs trained by Shannon. Joey, who we got from the shelter, couldn’t be put in a crate. He required medical care after attempting to chew through one. We took him home tonight after doing the 30 day boarded training and here he is . This would have never happened before Shannon. I think the biggest take away is how she helps balance and calm their minds but also teaches you how to be leader your dog needs. As long as you continue to follow her teachings, you’ll have the best dog for their lifetime. It’s two of the best investments I’ve ever made.

We brought our 4.5-month old Belgian Malinois to Shannon at Man’s Best Friend. He started the program as a little monster and came back to us as a fantastic beast!! Definitely recommended if you’re looking for your pup to actually listen to you… and especially to respect you!! It’s a thing… After his training we are able to be a very happy family!!
