My name is Melanie, and I've been a professional in the dog care industry for 15 years. My journey began in 2009 as a dog groomer, and since then, I have expanded my business to include grooming, boarding, and training services. I welcome dogs of all ages and sizes. With experience handling around 20,000 dogs, you can rest assured that your beloved pup will be in loving and experienced hands. Dog Lovers Only Board and Train Program Does walking your dog feel more like your dog is walking you? Are you embarrassed by their reactivity—barking, lunging, or pulling whenever you take them out? Have you spent time teaching them basic commands like sit, down, and heel, only to have them ignore you when it counts? Does your dog’s barking or jumping on guests leave you frustrated? Imagine if, in just 4-6 weeks, all these issues could be resolved. Picture yourself enjoying peaceful walks with a dog that stays by your side on a loose leash, calmly passing by other dogs or people without any fuss. Or even being trusted to have safe, reliable off-leash freedom. Envision giving commands that your dog listens to immediately and happily. Wouldn’t it be nice to welcome guests into your home and have your dog wait calmly to be greeted? Imagine taking your dog anywhere and receiving compliments on how well-behaved they are. Training your dog isn’t just about convenience—it’s essential for their mental well-being, strengthens your bond, and most importantly, ensures their safety. At Dog Lovers Only, we use balanced training methods grounded in trust, positive reinforcement, and healthy boundaries. Effective training requires time, patience, consistency, repetition, and an understanding of your dog’s individual needs. With our Board and Train service, we handle the hard work and guide you through the process. Each week of your dog’s stay includes a private lesson, allowing you to see your dog’s progress and equipping you with the necessary skills to maintain their training. You’ll learn alongside your dog, so when they return home, you’re already prepared to continue their progress. In these lessons, we’ll also discuss the reasons behind your dog’s behaviors, helping to bridge the communication gap so you and your dog can work together in harmony. After your dog returns home, I remain available for consultation should you have any questions or need additional guidance. I’ll check in to ensure you’re on the path to success and provide follow-up lessons if needed. My commitment to improving the lives of dogs and their owners extends beyond the training period—I’m here to support you for your dog’s lifetime. If you encounter challenges down the road, I’ll be there to help with additional training or support. What Your Dog Will Learn During Training: • Recall • Sit • Down • Heel • Off • Stay • Place (go to a mat and stay until released) • No Jumping on People • Leave it/Release • Crate Training • Counter Surfing Prevention • Potty Training • Threshold Boundaries (staying at doors, gates, or car doors until given permission) • Loose Leash Walking • Reactivity Management • Reducing Excessive Barking • Proper Socialization
