MondioPup, Inc. - Balanced Dog Training

Our 14 month old Lab was a challenge. Despite having experience raising several pups in the past, this girl was unlike any we’d had before. Birdie was stealing everything not nailed down, jumping on anyone who came to visit, and barking whenever we crated her (except at bedtime). She was so difficult to live with, we considered returning her to her breeder to be re-homed. Enter Adrienne from Mondiopup. In just over a month, she transformed our monster girl into a dog we love. Birdie now comes when called, never jumps, and is a joy to live with. The endless counter surfing is gone forever. Last night she was sent the her “place” and happily stayed there during a small cocktail party! We are speechless, and so happy to have a dog that we can enjoy. Thank you, Adrienne. You have changed our lives! I cannot recommend this talented trainer highly enough!

I knew nothing about dogs 10 months ago, and now barely a day goes by where I don't get comments on how well behaved and trained my dog is... and it's all thanks to Adrenne Mesko. This woman is literally the Mary Poppins of dogs, a real-life Dr. Dolittle, AND (the special secret she keeps to herself and does without you even knowing it)... an extraordinarily knowledgeable and able trainer of PEOPLE. I'm an analyst by training, and I thought I could simply do my research and teach myself dog-ownership 101. How naive! There is so much nonsense and disinformation out there. I bought 6 books and they all conflicted with one another. I subscribed to an internet-based video training service, and wasted hours learning useless and unnecessarily complicated techniques. Then suddenly I had a two month old adorable puppy ripping the carpets to pieces, chewing anything not nailed down, peeing everywhere except the pee pad, and making a beeline for electrical wiring (even though it was all sprayed with diluted tabasco sauce) whenever she felt like a snack. I was hopelessly out of my depth... desperate for help. Thankfully, Adrienne picked up the phone. After an hour I had all the information I needed to get our family (I'm a single dad with twin twelve year olds) through the next 8 weeks: a basic routine, a set of simple rules, and most important of all... the bad habits to avoid. At four months old, we drove to Adrienne's house to drop off our beloved but still quite naughty Millie. I felt comfortable right from the start. Over the next few weeks, Adrienne sent photos and videos, and a 14 page manual for dog-owning families which she wrote herself, so simple and yet so comprehensive. 6 weeks later, there was our playful pup, as energetic as ever... except perfectly trained to respond immediately to a simple set of commands. Not only that, it was as though she was proud to show off what she had learned, especially in front of other humans and dogs. Now... we're living the dream. My children and I could simply not imagine life without our wonderful Millie. When I travel for work, she boards with Adrienne and her canine friends, who she absolutely adores. And whenever we have an issue or a question, we simply call Adrienne who always knows what to do. It all comes down to this: dogs and their owners need routine. It's not complicated, but it cannot be "picked up" or learned from books or the internet. It's a bit like The Force in the Star Wars movies... you need to learn it from a Jedi. Adrienne Mesko is our Obi-Wan Kenobi. I cannot say enough good things about her...

Adrienne is a fantastic dog trainer who has a real passion for dogs. There are a lot of dog trainers out there, but they lack the one thing that this girl does above and beyond and that is the actual care of your dog while in training.. she takes the Atmos care and precaution when caring for your pop, and realizes all of the knowledge that she has access to, to provide a enrichment filled environment for your dog to thrive. Keep up the amazing work!!!
