“Melody has been great to work with! Always coming up with new, creative ways to address issues that arise with our labs. We got tired of doing the same old techniques that other trainers kept presenting that weren’t working. She actually comes out to the environment where the issues occur to fix them. Highly recommended!”

“Melody is amazing. She gave me the confidence I need to make progress with my dog after a really tragic incident. She understands and will work on the root of the behavior in a positive and approachable way. I am so thankful we started training with her and am looking forward to all Maddie’s progress! ”

Jason & Anne Leonard

“We contacted Melody to help us with some aggression our 2 year old American Pitbull Terrier began to show. She taught us the skills and confidence to help him and has such a knowledge of all things canine. He’s a much less reactive dog and still has lots of room to improve but we’re headed in the right direction. ”

“We’ve just started working with Melody and she’s already been a big help. It is great to have her professional insight and years of experience. Even as someone who has been around dogs my whole life, I’m learning a lot and making sure our latest pup has the best chance of success possible!”
