The evidence based training provided by Allegra is amazing to see in action. Her materials are so thoughtfully articulated and digestable, whether you're an established dog expert, or simply a dog parent looking for guidance (I'm both!) Her teachings have become such a priceless tool in my arsenal as a professional dog walker. 10/10 recommend.

About The Naked Dog
The Naked Dog offers training programs that teach you, the human, to 'speak dog.' Most owners call us with one problem behavior they really want to change. Instead of treating the symptom and spot correcting only that behavior, we take a holistic approach that addresses the way your dog sees the world. These tools last a lifetime and can be applied to any training issues you face in the future.

Vicki with The Naked Dog has helped my little dog and I so much with managing his anxieties and reactivity. She had him for a two week board and stay and has followed up over the following months as well. I highly recommend a board and stay with TND and Vicki!
Great people who really care about dogs and helping owners have a successful relationship.

I was introduced to two magical training artists known as Allegra and Haley at a puppy introductory class. I was nervous about going even though I had been working with my puppy, but I was so glad that I went! My boxer, Mack had a blast and so did I. It was a small group of (up to date) vaccinated puppies who were close in age and size. We worked on things like basic commands, walking on leash, and introductory play with others. Allegra and Haley have this synthesis that creates a soft, but disciplined demeanor that compliments one another, sprinkled with magical nuggets of individual wisdom and experience. I felt comfortable and started to relax and gain some confidence back. I like that Allegra is tough, but fair. She gives direction well, explains the reasoning behind her corrections, and reminds me to pause and breathe. I like that Haley is warm and assertive, and she took the extra time to help me problem solve after one session. I haven't had the opportunity to spend as much time working with Haley, but as I said before.. Allegra and Haley compliment each other's training and teaching styles so well! They are able to explain ideas from different perspectives, all while personalizing the experience to meet you and your pet's needs. They have created a community of dogs and dog people to ask questions, share ideas, and continued learning. They even have amazing "how to" articles on their website! Mack and I thank you The Naked Dog for the professional, fun, and personalized support. Definitely recommend!

5/5 stars all the way! Allegra and Haley provided the most interactive training and e-course that actually made sense. They dive into the psychology of why your dog is doing what they are doing and it provides a clear understanding of how to train. The courses went over everything in detail and they had extra articles to explain anything you are needing to help train. They were responsive, professional, and trustworthy. Worth the money hands down!
