Taylor is a knowledgable professional breeder and trainer. This is not our first dog, but it is our first German Shepherd. He has a wonderfully sweet temperament with the entire family and he is extremely intelligent. Taylor also provided obedience training for our dog at her training academy with terrific results. A+ breeder and trainer and A+ GSD.

Taylor is amazing! I’ve got the best boy a girl could have because of her. Zeus is an incredibly well tempered and loving dog. Taylor has incredible skills with training dogs and has trained both my dogs. Everyone always says how great they are and how well mannered.. and i would like to take all the credit but it’s pretty much all Taylor!

I feel so fortunate to have come across Fame Academy online. I have a 5 year old German Shepherd, that has been struggling with anxiety, & aggression for the last 2 years, especially when in public. Have tried multiple things (thunder coats, diets changes, holistic vets, medication, training, re-socialization…) to fix this behavior, but there was no improvement. After speaking with Taylor from Fame Academy, I felt confident that sending her to board and train there, would be the best thing. In only 5 weeks, I cannot believe how much progress Taylor made with my dog. I was nervous about the first walk post training, but Taylor was there to guide me though what to do. Previously, my dog was so terrified she would growl at other people & animals, pull on the leash, sometimes would refuse to move at all, & would actually be shaking in certain situations. During this walk after boarding, my dog listened & followed commands, she stayed by my side, & most importantly appeared calm & indifferent. She did not bark once as we weaved our way through people & along the fence of the dog park. Taylor stayed with us, calmly reinforcing appropriate “owner behavior” until I felt comfortable with what to do. Now back home, I understand it will be a continued effort to keep up with the progress Taylor has made- SO worth it! I feel comfortable taking my pup in public & she is so much calmer. What a better life for her! Also, Taylor remains a valuable resource for follow-up questions I may have. I was sad to have my pup leave for those weeks, but Taylor keep me updated with photos & videos of her progress during that time. It was obvious that Taylor loves what she does & my dog really responded to her. She has a gentle nature, but is definitely in control. My dog getting her life back is priceless & I really do not know how to thank Taylor enough. Highly, highly recommend.

I adopted a Blue Heeler from HES who had severe dog aggression and behavioral issues. Wow. Taylor worked wonders with Boomer! We are now able to bring him over to friends' homes who own dogs and don't have to worry. Our biggest accomplishment since working with Taylor was going on a 4 mile hike with Boomer where he was exposed to dogs, runners, bikers, etc. and wasn't phased at all. I am so thankful HES referred us to Taylor and through working with her I have developed a deeper bond with my pup, Boomer.
