The All Star program is more comprehensive and your dog will learn several more behaviors. Your dog will be easy to control both inside and outside of your home. You also get the added bonus of email support for 4 months after we’ve finished the training sessions. This way you can feel free to contact me with any questions or issues that come up therefore ensuring the best possible outcome!
The Ultimate Foundation is, well, the ultimate! It is the most comprehensive program and the results are pretty amazing. It consists of a combination of day training sessions, where I work with your dog solo to get the training on board more quickly, plus private sessions where we work together so you know what your dog knows. Your dog will respond to cues, be a pleasure to walk, and shine as an important member of your family. You receive unlimited email and phone support for six months after we’ve finished the training sessions. That’s right, a trainer on hand to answer your questions and problem solve while your dog is perfecting its newly acquired behaviors!

We probably would have returned our (then) 1 year old GSD Theo to the shelter if it hadn’t been for Megan. He was uncontrollable on leash and reactive to everything. He also bit my husband in a lot of their interactions, making him bleed pretty much every day. He was a LOT of dog! Luckily I had met Megan on a few occasions. She assured us right away that Theo is not a vicious dog. She taught us how to manage a lot of his undesirable behaviors and how to get his attention. He now recalls really well and I can walk him by myself. We were even able to take him to Home Depot! He also does minimal mouthing with my husband now and Theo uses a much softer mouth. We learned that Theo must earn everything. He respects us more and has become an even more snuggly dog. We’re so grateful we decided to give Theo a second chance. Megan really helped us improve our relationship with our pup and we can’t recommend her enough.

Megan is the best! I highly recommend Megan as your dog trainer. From the initial consultation, it was clear that she was an excellent communicator who listened to our concerns and goals for our dog's training. Megan was patient, kind, and professional throughout the training process, helping our dog learn new behaviors and addressing any issues that arose.
What impressed me the most was how Megan worked with our kids. She explained things in a way they could understand, making them feel included in the training process. As a result, our kids are now actively involved in continuing our dog's training and love being a part of it. Megan's guidance and support were invaluable, and we feel much more confident as dog owners.
Overall, if you're looking for a skilled and personable dog trainer, I highly recommend Megan. She goes above and beyond to ensure both the dog and owners are happy and successful in their training journey.

After getting a new puppy we needed help getting her trained and learning how to integrate her with our other senior dogs. Megan went above and beyond to help us and is clearly passionate about what she does. The sessions were informative, fun and the best part is we could literally see our dog change right in front of our eyes!!!! After completing the training, there is a night and day difference in our dog and the whole family has the tools to help continue understanding her needs. I can’t recommend the stellar dog enough!!!!!
