I highly recommend training at Dog Flower to any dog owner. The skills and knowledge Meghan teaches—not only to my dog but also to me—have been invaluable.
Meghan is extremely knowledgeable, incredibly patient, and truly passionate about helping strengthen the relationship between dogs and their owners. My 5-month-old Doberman absolutely loves attending day training at Dog Flower and gets excited every time she goes.
My experience has been excellent, and I am so grateful for Meghan's guidance and support. The progress my puppy and I have made together is remarkable, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

Meaghan is an incredible dog trainer and lovely human. My very anxious, slightly reactive German Shepherd is absolutely in love with them, and they've been incredibly kind an accommodating with me. The at home day training is an incredible service at a great value! Meaghan goes above and beyond with photos, videos, detailed report cards, and links to training resources and products (treats, harnesses etc.) Meaghan is knowledgeable, personable, organized, and responsive. I've seen vast improvement in my dog's anxiety (and my own as a result of being confident in my skills being a good dog mom!) They've even incorporated my toddler into our trainings to help my dog deal with his protective anxiety and Meaghan has been so kind to offer things in alternate formats/provide resources through a variety of mediums. I can't recommend Dog Flower enough.

Our experience at Dog Flower was excellent! My dog Rosie absolutely loves Meaghan and gets so excited each time we walk through the door. I've worked with several dog trainers over the years and Meaghan by far is the best, offering doable exercises, clear instructions and explanations, and plenty of encouragement (for both me and Rosie, who is 6 and is still very eager to learn). I'd highly recommend Dog Flower to anyone looking for dog training!
