Melissa and her team are the most incredible trainers! They are so good with the dogs, our cane corso, Romeo, absolutely loves her! Extremely professional, very communicative, and a genuine heart for the babies she trains. She is a tremendous asset to the dog training world and we highly recommend Dogs by Melissa!! Your fur baby will be lucky to train with her and her team! Thank you for helping our Romeo be the bestest boy ever!!

One week before starting training, our 80 pound lab puppy ran out the front door, across the street, and terrorized an elderly woman walking a little dog because he wanted to play. The morning we were to start training, he bolted for another dog, pulling me over, leaving me with busted up front teeth, a minor concussion, a sprained wrist, and lots of bruises. Dogs By Melissa took him for three weeks for the board-and-train program. On his first day home, he went on a two mile walk, passing a flock of white birds, two bunnies, twelve pedestrians, two dogs he was friends with, one dog he did not know, two dogs who were as unruly as he used to be, a kid on a scooter, three kids playing in the street, one person sitting in their driveway, lawn sprinklers, and a twelve foot tall animated hol

Melissa and Amy are amazing! They did a job that I thought to be impossible. We put our 3YO Doberman in the 3-week training program and have received a well-trained dog in return! Our girl loves hard but had no manners and would act absurd in public. To take her for a walk was embarrassing and unmanageable… She now listens to our commands (we requested them to be in German and the team delivered 🙌🏼) and is enjoyable while walking! As you can see in the photo I provided she is on a walk with me, sitting and staying without me physically controlling her. This was our first time using professional trainers for any of our dogs. I only wish we had decided to do this sooner! We were not sure what to expect. Melissa and Amy were professional, caring and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Dog

We are very pleased with the dog training provided by Jacquelyn and Melissa. Our standard poodle Sage completed the 10-week training program and it exceeded our expectations. We were provided with weekly instructions after each training session. Sage adapted well and continued to take on additional instructions without regression. We are able to take Sage to outdoor restaurants or events without causing any issues with others, which is a great compliment to our trainers. Steve & Donna Roberts

What a wonderful experience, Melissa and Jacquye are the best. Thanks so much! We would recommend you to anyone wanting a professionally trained dog. Our Miss Tiki now waits patiently to get in the pool, and walks on a leash like a proper young lady. ❤️
