We had an amazing experience working with Tanya! Myself and my puppy Benson completed the Signature Homeschooling program, and the transformation has been incredible. She taught him so many useful cues and skills, and I saw such a noticeable improvement, especially with his separation anxiety, leash walking, polite greetings, and behavior around distractions. What I loved most was how personalized every session was. Tanya really took the time to understand our specific needs and adjust the training based on what we were working through at the time. Whenever we ran into a new issue or challenging situation, I could bring it up with her and she always had practical advice and a clear strategy for how to approach it. Being able to troubleshoot things in real time was incredibly helpful. I also really appreciated that the sessions involved coaching me as well, Tanya is an excellent teacher. She taught me how to consistently apply the training on the days she wasn’t there, which gave me the tools and confidence to keep making progress at home. More than just improving my dog’s behavior, the training helped me better understand how he communicates and strengthened the bond between us. Tanya was patient, knowledgeable, and so easy to work with, and I feel so much more confident in how to communicate with and train my dog because of her. I'm so grateful for all of her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trainer!

Tanya was an absolute godsend! We had our first child in June and we’ve had an English bulldog Covid pup who needed some serious training and support leading up to and after the birth. Tanya was incredibly patient, thorough, and provided amazing expertise and training for us and our dog. The support made a massive difference and we’ve seen so much progress from our dog already. Highly recommend Family Pupz to anyone.

We called upon Tanya to help us understand our lovely labradoodle puppy, who is cuddly and sweet, but very smart with a mind of her own. We booked the in home training classes, which were great. Tanya was able to see Halle's quirks and inconsistencies in her own home, and help us come up with solutions for some problem behaviors. More, she was patient kind and non-judgemental with us and with Halle. She helped us to understand Halle's behavior, body language, and needs and suggest ways to work with her that fit in with who we are and our lifestyle. We are more connected with our little Halle who has made some huge gains over this process. I feel the investment in learning how to understand our dog was invaluable, as it allows us to continue to grow with her and develop more skills over the years we hope to share with her. I would highly recommend Tanya - she is professional, knowledgeable, creative and kind.
We worked with Tanya through all the hardest stages of puppyhood and she is the best! Our maple is high high energy and Tanya always met her with patience, love, and determination. Not to mention Maple absolutely LOVES her. She helped us nail down potty training, crate training, walking, and more!
