Smartydog Center For Canine

I recently adopted a dog- he was rescued from a high-kill shelter in Texas. Marty helped me learn how to behave in relation to Charlie to elicit the behaviors I want from him. My friend is a veterinarian & she steered me to Smartydog, eventhough there are other doggie schools that are closer to my house. Marty is personable, relatable, and down-to-earth. Support women-owned/lgbtq businesses!!!

I will never take my puppies anywhere else for training. We took my great dane there a few years ago and since rescuing a pitbull, we take him there too. Marty is SO knowledgeable about dogs and training. My puppy has become fearless through the obstacle courses that she has that promotes bonding between the puppy and his person and confidence in the puppy. My puppy now loves jumping over and on things (outside!). It is amazing to see. She also teaches how to wait at doors, go into a crate easily, how to walk on a leash and so much more. My puppy now goes into his crate with ease! I love these classes so much that I am taking my puppy to them even though I have a broken foot! I didn't want to wait for the next class. Marty makes learning fun with her humor. She makes it feel safe

I have used Martha’s business to help me train two different breeds of dogs beginning in 2002. A Mini Schnauzer and a Havanese. I have lost my MS to canine cancer. My Havi is now 12 1/2. I get remarks constantly as to how well trained she is. Smarty Dog gave me the tools, but I am the one who implemented them and still do. Thank You, Martha

Martha is great! She taught us how to Train my dog and we were able to teach her a lot of basic principles Sit, stay, leave it,come. She also provides a lot of enrichment classes to strengthen the bond between human and pet! Martha also is down to earth and a lot of fun! Highly recommend Smartydog!

This dog trainer is AMAZING!!! My dog was aggressive and biting. I went to a training center without success and then contacted my vet who told me, "You need Marty!". They were right. I have been training dogs for years but my dog Cosie was so difficutl to train and I felt so hopeless. After going through the training with Marty, my Cosie is so obedient and a joy to have around. I can't say enough good things about this place. Marty is amazing!!!
