Meaghan is absolutely wonderful with dogs. She brings years of training experience and approaches every pup with such calm, patience, and kindness. Years ago, they took care of my pup Angel at doggy daycare, and we’ve been following and using their training methods ever since. Meaghan is a wealth of education and information and they use force-free and creative approaches which makes a huge difference in how I learned to train my dogs, and it’s clear how much they genuinely care about every dog and person they work with

Randomly came across Dog Flower while scrolling TikTok one day… True story! I really liked Meaghan’s vibe And decided to sign my puppy up for some training. I’ve never been to a dog trainer. I did not know what to expect. However, seeing my dog change some of his undesired behaviors using the skills we learned has been so good for all of us! The class structure is easy to follow with great examples and a chance to practice in session. Every class is followed up with notes from the class and “homework“ so we can continue because consistency creates the desired behaviors that we’re looking for. Even though it was a bit of a drive to get there from where I’m located… It was well worth it in my opinion. I’m looking forward to heading back for the next level of classes sometime soon.

Meaghan, our trainer made the class very relaxed and easy to follow. She was very knowledgeable in the field and did great with my shy shepherd puppy. Will be taking more classes here in the future 😊

We were struggling with our new rescue and found Meaghan and couldn’t be happier. We did the at home day training for Scruffy due to our schedules and it was just what he needed. It gave him the foundations he needed to be the best dog he can be. Meaghan followed up everyday with a report card, videos and homework which was perfect for us to understand what to continue doing. Now we practice these things with him daily. Would definitely recommend Meaghan at Dog Flower for any training needs.

I have a hard time trusting my new puppy with just anyone, but I completely trust Dog Flower to help make him a more confident, calm, and well socialized pup. He has done puppy nursery and puppy socials at Dog Flower and each time my husband and I feel like all of us learned something new about our puppy and our relationship with him.
