My Training Style

I prioritize positive reinforcement and fear-free training techniques in my training. With my training programs, I empower dog owners to better comprehend their dog's perspective, enabling them to respond effectively to their pet’s cues and emotions. By using rewards and encouragement, rather than fear, punishment, or intimidation, I help cultivate a bond between canine and their family built on a foundation of trust and respect.

I ensure that every training session is a positive and enriching experience for both the dog and their human.

The Talk Around Town

I’ve never seen someone connect to dogs like Megan does. I call her a dog whispered and swear she speaks dog. She can read what a dog needs and really connect with them. I cannot recommend her enough.
— Dana & Daisy
Megan taught my children to understand how to work with our dogs. She was wonderful, extremely patient and thoughtful. As our dogs are members of our family, it seemed necessary to improve the communication between us all. Megan simplified the training in a way that both the children and the dogs could grasp.
— Paula, Clayton, Cameron, Rudy & Cleo
Excellent! She comes to your home. She worked miracles with our Great Dane mix.
— Lori & Astro
Wow!! We struck Gold with Megan. She is Amazing. So convenient, comes to our Ranch. So patient and such a loving connection immediately with Maggie. She’s worked miracles in such a short time with her. I highly recommend Megan and so do our Doggies!! they all love her.
