He was understandably a little nervous the first time we dropped him off but the second time he was thrilled to be back, which just shows how much fun he had there with her!! You can tell that Kat cares deeply about the dogs she works with and I'm so glad we found her out here in the desert. I highly recommend the customizable board and train service to provide structure, fundamentals and/or personalized learning (then you just need to stay consistent at home continuing to reinforce the new skills). Thank you Kat for all you've taught Ozzie - we will definitely be back!

About 6 years ago I adopted my partner's dog after his death.  She was already an adult and was…read moreextremely calm and relaxed. Since she was my first dog, I didn't know anything different and we had many wonderful years together until she died in her sleep at 15 1/2 earlier this year.   While at the shelter a short time later, a sweet 6 month old puppy chose me and I brought her home, even though I had vowed to adopt an adult dog.  Well, needless to say, I wasn't sure what I was signing up for, having had no experience with puppies nor high-spirited breeds.  I have also recently developed a medical condition so I wanted to look into service animal training and certification.  After doing a fair amount of online research for a credentialed service animal trainer in the Coachella Valley, I soon realized that there were only a small handful of people doing this work, which is how I discovered Majestic Dog Training. I was impressed by the amount of information on Brooke's website, as well as the very specific testimonials from past clients.  I reached out to Brooke and she got back to me promptly (even though it was a holiday weekend) and spent a good deal of time with me on the phone to assess my needs to see if we would be a good fit.  I loved her approach, her energy, and her honesty as we talked through my goals. My puppy and I both met her a short time later, and after our first session, I was excited to continue working with her.  We are still early in our training relationship, but I have already seen a big difference in my puppy's obedience and general behavior and feel that we are on the right path to service-animal certification.

Absolutely Amazing Dog Trainer -- Brooke at Majestic Dog Training!…read more After Olive was attacked at a dog park, she became extremely reactive and anxious around other dogs. Walks became stressful, and she would lunge at dogs even from a distance. At home, Olive is a true "love bug," so we knew she was scared--not a bad dog--and needed the right guidance. Before we ever met Brooke, we received a recommendation for another dog trainer. That person told us Olive would likely be untrainable, explaining that many dogs attacked at dog parks can never be rehabilitated enough to become non-aggressive. They essentially gave up on her before even meeting her. I told them I would never give up on Olive and that I would find someone who could help her. We were so blessed to receive a referral to Brooke at Majestic Dog Training. After just a few sessions, Olive has made tremendous progress. Her reactivity and anxiety have significantly decreased, and she is learning to stay calm and look to us for direction when she sees another dog. She is happier, calmer, and more confident--and so are we! Brooke's approach combines positive reinforcement, patience, consistency, calmness, support, and love. She is incredibly positive, adaptable, and genuinely passionate about dogs. She worked with our schedule, was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and made the entire training process easy and comfortable for us. One of the best parts is seeing Olive when we return after training. She is so happy, excited, and clearly loves Brooke. That says everything. Brooke has built a trusting relationship with Olive, and it is obvious how much she truly cares about every dog she works with. If you are looking for a dog trainer in the desert, choose Brooke. Her positivity, love of dogs, flexibility, and dedication set her apart from anyone else. She helped us understand Olive's behavior and gave us practical tools to help her succeed. I will never recommend anyone else. Brooke is the only name I will give to anyone who wants their dog trained. She has made an incredible difference in Olive's life and ours, and we are forever grateful!

At home Poppy barks at new people coming into the house and then shortly after they enter, she stops. Skipper Pip on the other hand is a grand AHOLE that will continually bark till our guest sits down or stops moving and it starts back up when they start moving again. ‍ I can say that nothing I did worked to stop or curb this little booger from barking. I watched countless videos and NOTHING WAS WORKING! I created a tiny monster. I finally had had enough and sought out a professional. I found Janine here on the internet. I didn't really know what to expect or how hard this was going to be. I didn't care, I needed help and was willing to do whatever an expert would tell me to do. Getting to know Janine and working with her has been super easy. I listed in detail all of the behavior issues that I have with Skipper but mostly it's the constant barking. Lord have mercy on my ears. The first visit is an assessment, explanation of how your dog thinks and how they understand you, and for us; some basics to start getting *operation no more barking* underway. Janine is very thorough so you understand both human and dog points of view. I really like this comprehensive approach. She trains you to train your dog so that your pet can thrive. Janine is not a cookie cutter style dog trainer. She is adaptive in finding what works best for you and your pooch. This is just the hands on learning Skipper and I needed. Thank you Janine, you are a treasure. Skipper's Results after working with Janine: *No longer barks when in public (on leash or in a stroller.) *No longer barks at the gardeners or pool guy. *Walks on a leash with ease w/zero pulling. *Knows the difference between Working Walk and Leisurely Walk. *Does not freak out at other dogs. Is perfectly calm and confident that I will not let anything happen to her. *No longer licks paws unless right before bed. *Significantly less anxiety overall.
