GIFMAF Dog Psychology Center

I can’t recommend this company enough! They took exceptional care of my 8-month-old Yorkie during his 10-day board-and-train program. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt confident he was in caring and capable hands. The entire team is kind, professional, respectful, and truly passionate about what they do. My puppy came home happy, well-adjusted, and had made incredible progress with his training. A special thank you to Isabella, who came to our home for a follow-up training session after the program. She was patient, knowledgeable, and took the time to make sure we understood how to continue reinforcing everything our puppy had learned. Her guidance made the transition home so much easier. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and highly skilled dog training company, I wholeheartedly recommend them. They exceeded my expectations, and I’m so grateful for the wonderful care and training they provided for my Yorkie!

We cannot recommend Gifmaf Training enough! We originally reached out because we had only had our Goldendoodle puppy, Bruno, for one week, and within that first week of apartment living we had already received a complaint about his barking. He would bark for 30–45 minutes at a time whenever he was left alone, and we knew we needed professional help. We enrolled Bruno in the 15-day board-and-train program, and when he came home, it honestly felt like we had a completely different dog. He was crate trained, stopped wandering into our carpeted rooms, understood his “place” command, walked beautifully in a heel, and, most importantly, the excessive barking completely stopped. He doesn’t bark in his crate, doesn’t react to other dogs, and is so much calmer and more confident overall. This all started back in March/April, and now in July we had our follow-up session with Adrian. From day one, Adrian has been absolutely incredible. He’s always been patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about both the dogs and their owners. We brought up a few questions about Bruno’s behavior and things we wanted to improve, and within minutes Adrian showed us exactly what we were doing wrong, explained why, and helped us correct it on the spot. The difference was immediate. One thing we really appreciate is that the training isn’t just about teaching the dog—it’s about teaching the owners how to communicate consistently so the training lasts. Adrian has been there to support us every step of the way, and we couldn’t be happier with Bruno’s progress. Another reason we continue to trust Gifmaf is that they also offer boarding. We’re actually going to be using their hotel service while we’re on vacation because we know Bruno will be in great hands. That’s something that’s hard to find. They genuinely care about every dog they work with, and it shows in everything they do. Knowing we can leave Bruno somewhere he’s loved, understood, and cared for gives us complete peace of mind. If you’re on the fence about training your dog, especially if you live in an apartment or are struggling with barking or obedience, don’t hesitate. It has been one of the best investments we’ve ever made for Bruno and for ourselves. Thank you, Adrian and the entire Gifmaf team, for giving us such a well-behaved, happy, and confident dog!

We had a great experience with Gifmaf! We sent our 4 month old pup for the 15 day board & train, we were so nervous about it but we are so glad we did! Our pup was fearful reactive at times and he often only listened if there was a treat or food in sight. Now he’s much more confident, and knows what he’s supposed to be doing. He listens every time - he’s perfect!!! We received video updates every day and their customer support is AMAZING! They answered every question quickly and were so kind. Adrian explained everything so well to us on the day of pick up and answered additional questions we had at the monthly group class. I was very hesitant about the mini educator collar on my pup, but when we got him back we’ve hardly had to use it. It also helps us feel more confident in him and it gives us peace of mind about his safety and others safety. We couldn’t recommend Gifmaf enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A little over 4 weeks ago, I had an anxious, aggressive rescue. Today I have a well behaved companion. Before GIFMAF, my dog Kenzo was extremely reactive, anxious, and aggressive toward people. I decided to commit to the 30-day aggression training program, and calling it “worth it” is an understatement. He still has all his personality and flair, but now it comes with real structure and obedience. What made the experience stand out was the communication. Every single day Kenzo was in training, I received a video update, and any question I had was answered quickly. Barbara and Erika were both incredibly responsive and helpful throughout. Getting to watch his progress unfold each day, and actually seeing the skills being taught and reinforced, was something I looked forward to. They even exposed him to alpacas, ducks, camels, and all kinds of other distractions to truly solidify his obedience in the real world. At pickup, the weather threw us some complications, but our trainer Adrian made accommodations to insure we still had a productive, impactful session. Adrian is extremely knowledgeable and a fantastic teacher. He doesn’t just train your dog, he trains you to be the one in charge. He walked me through what Kenzo has learned and showed me exactly how to correct him if he steps out of line, so I left feeling confident, not lost. In the end, I couldn’t be happier with what GIFMAF has done for Kenzo and I. If you’re struggling with your dog’s reactivity, anxiety, disobedience, or aggression, I can’t recommend them enough. They’ve genuinely changed my day-to-day life with my dog for the better.
