FirstBarkI recently enrolled my puppy in Out of the Bark puppy training and have seen noticeable improvement in his behavior. He came into the class with some training from home, and Megha helped expand that training into something much more manageable and fun. Highly recommend!!

My dog, Bori, suffers from fear-based anxiety and reactivity. I spent a long time searching for the right trainer, and after several failed attempts, I finally found Dan. He has an incredible depth of knowledge and a high level of understanding regarding reactive behavior. I can also truly feel that he genuinely cares about Bori. Having gone through similar experiences himself, he was able to empathize with both bori and us throughout the entire training process, which I really appreciated. If you are looking for a positive reinforcement dog trainer, I recommend him without hesitation!
We love Out of the Bark! Our dog Juniper learned so much from Megha in the Dog 1 class. Megha is knowledgeable, communicates well, and creates a very positive environment for dogs to learn. I highly recommend Out of the Bark!

I can't say enough good things about Megha and Dan at Out of the Bark. I've worked primarily with Megha for both private training (one dog) and group classes (another), and the experience has been incredible. They are extremely knowledgeable, but what really stands out is how passionate they are about what they do. They truly care about both the dogs and the humans--they don't just train your dog, they teach you how to be a better, more confident owner. Megha goes above and beyond in every way. She checks in between sessions, asks for video updates, provides detailed notes and resources, and is always available to answer questions. It's clear she genuinely wants her clients to succeed and their dogs to thrive. They're also very accommodating with scheduling and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. My dogs both love going to training, which says everything. If you're looking for trainers w

Huge shoutout to Dan for all the amazing help with Maisy! 🐶 We’ve seen such great progress in just a couple months and feel like he gave us the right tools and support to really keep building confidence with her. She still gets nervous around some dogs (more reactive than aggressive), but the improvement has been incredible. We took her on a hike at Del Valle this morning and passed multiple people with absolutely zero reaction — which felt like such a big win for us. Dan was patient, encouraging, realistic, and genuinely cared about helping us succeed. We’ll definitely be reaching back out for more classes in the future. Highly recommend if you’re looking for someone knowledgeable and supportive for dog training
