I am 64 years old and I have been adopting rescue animals my whole life, as has my wife. Two of…read morethem were "special needs animals". This has always been a joyful experience, UNTIL NOW! Dealing with these horrible people has been one of the worst experiences we have ever been through. We patiently answered all of their highly invasive and personal questions which included questions about how we lost our pets!? My wife is one of the sweetest and most caring people I have ever known and it was heartbreaking to sit there and watch her cry for over an hour reliving these horrible events with our sweet pets. We gave them our own veterinarian as a reference! Then after all this, they extort $10 from us. We paid thinking this was the final step and we would finally get our puppy. Nope! Then they wanted a video of our home!! Who in their right mind is going to send a total stranger a video of their home?!? By the way, we have a beautiful home with 10 acres and a creek but that shouldn't matter. All that matters is we have an empty yard where a beautiful dog should be playing. I truly do not know what is wrong with these people and I have a Master's Degree In Psychology! I feel sorry for the animals, THEY DESERVE BETTER AND SO DO WE!!

Not the first time I have had bad experience here.

We made the rookie mistake of deciding to add a third dog to our elderly twelve-year-old pack of…read moretwo. We thought it would bring some energy back into our old-timers, bring out the motherly instinct in our older female and when the time comes, ease the inevitable transition of saying goodbye to our beloved existing dogs. Initially everything was unfolding well, aside from the occasional squabble. However, as our new girl reached her teenage months, things became heated and quickly evolved into frequent fighting to the point that we had to keep our youngest separated from the elderlies all of the time. This solved our problem but was far from an ideal long-term solution and did not match our original intent. We attempted to remedy with all manner of interventions including: professional in-home trainers, air horns (against professional advice) and bite-proof doggy attire. Needless to say we failed at each turn and resolved that we needed to seek out a more intense intervention, settle on separate living or find our puppy a new home. After some internet research we came across Valerie/Canine Coaching. After talking with her about her methodology and philosophy we signed up. Our puppy spent just a little over two weeks with Valerie. Valerie worked with her on basic obedience and "doggy manners," of which our puppy had little. We visited at the one-week mark and progress was evident. Our puppy actually looked to people for permission, was safely interacting with other dogs and when told to stop an averse behavior she actually complied. At the conclusion of the program, Valerie delivered our puppy back to us and carefully reintroduced our puppy back to her pack. At the conclusion of the training, our puppy had lost none of her "spunk" and had a new, more polite and compliant demeanor. Valerie also trained us on her methods so we could continue the progress while we had a lot of traction and answered all of our many questions. A month into her return home, our puppy is again a functioning part of her pack. She seems to know her rank and when she tests limits we are able to easily correct the problem and return back to our new normal. Needless to say, the intervention has worked better than we could have expected based on our previous experiences and worth every penny. We would highly recommend Canine Coaching services if you are in a similar situation and are looking for a humane and affordable solution.

My dog is completely obsessed with Lauren and Tiny Dog Dancers!…read more When I first stumbled upon Tiny Dog Dancers, I thought it would be a great temporary solution to make sure that my dog would continue to get socialized during lockdown. I thought we could try it out for just a couple months, but quickly came to realize how valuable weekly hikes with Lauren were to my pup's happiness, health, and well being. Three years later, we're still going strong. Small dog pack hikes (honestly never even knew this was a thing before Tiny Dog dancers) add so much joy to my dog's life. Every week, when Lauren pulls up with her backseat full of ecstatic small pups, my dog absolutely loses it with excitement to join the fray. She comes back a few hours later (sometimes covered in mud) and is happily exhausted for the rest of the day. Lauren sends photos after every hike, and it's so cute to see all the dogs looking thrilled in their element. Lauren is not only clearly beloved by every dog of Tiny Dog Dancers, but she is also just so great to work with as a professional and as a person. She is incredibly warm, knowledgeable, and really gets small dogs. She's excellent with reading their cues, understanding their needs. Like a true pro, she also helps to reinforce important dog training components like recall and playing well with others. I always trust that my dog will be happy and safe in her care, whether she's going on a hike with the Tiny Dog Dancers or spending a week with Lauren while we go out of town. I highly recommend Tiny Dog Dancers to any small dog lover who is looking to add regular socialization, stimulation, and exercise into their pup's life!
