We contacted Tamara to help us navigate a rescue traumatized puppy out of Texas which had just traveled 48 hours in a transport van. She was completely shut down. Tamara came to our house the morning we got her, Frankie, and was able to get her out of the kennel, outside and into a bath. She provided us much needed information and training tools to transition Frankie into our home and lives. Frankie has since thrived and is an amazing addition to our family. Tamara was knowledgeable, dependable and fun.

I was recommended to Tamara after a previous recommendation was unavailable and it was the best thing ever!
My three yr old pup Rogue is such a sweet girl, but in public, there was a 50/50 chance she would be reactive towards a dog or someone walking by.
We signed her up for a two week BnT to focus on recall and socialization, and it was perfect for us since we were already heading on vacation. Tamara was so good about video updates and would always check in with us. You can absolutely see the amount of love and care she gives every client.
When we got Rogue back, she was a totally different dog in the best way. BnT was the best decision for us and I can confidently bring her out with us in public without feeling anxious. I can’t wait to bring her back to Tamara for boarding for our next trip.

I had an amazing experience with the two-week board and train session with Tamara at Doglingual for my dog, Peach! She was incredibly attentive and created a personalized training plan that truly helped shape Peach’s behavior. Peach is a spicy dog and she came back more confident, well-behaved, and happy. Tamara's dedication to understanding Peach dog’s unique needs (bitey during grooming) really stood out. I highly recommend Doglingual to anyone looking for professional and compassionate training. Peach is now a great adventure buddy, thanks to their expert guidance!
