    Abby about to get a treat from Brendan!

    Brendan is a phenomenal and professional business owner. He is punctual, loving and very accommodating. His rates are great and he truly enjoys his work. I get a picture from each walk and a text with a little report; it makes my day! I highly recommend Finnegan's Friends to all pet owners on the westside. There's no one better than Brendan for all your pets needs! You will know when you meet him that your pet is in excellent and loving hands!!! Thank you, Brendan!!!

    Roxie waiting for Brendan to come back after their walk.

    We love Finnegan's Friends! Our mom was injured in January so couldn't take us in our daily walks. That's when we met Brendan. He's the best. He takes us to the park, on walks, on car rides. He makes sure we get water and shade if it's warm. He always sends mom pictures along the way because he knows she worries and likes to see our adventure! When we get home we come running in and can't wait to tell mom what we did and who we sniffed! He is pawsitively awesome!

    We did a lot of looking and trying out of Doggy daycares and we contacted a couple of private dog walkers. I just happen to come upon Finnegans Friends. From the beginning they were super responsive, came over for an in person visit to meet our Huskita, Nuha our fur-son. The cost, the timing, and the personal one on one walk/run has been awesome. We have noticed a significant change in our Nuha. He is more receptive to commands, he is actually tired from the running and hiking. Brendan and Krystine are super loving, caring, and assertive with Nuha. They actually got him to enjoy a little dog. He now is abke to be in the presence of a tiny dog with out going crazy. Nuha is actually sad when he gets dropped of by them. He misses them so this tells me theyvare good to and for my fur baby. I highly recommend them. They send pics and uodates on activity and bathroom breaks. They are truly a blessing to our Nuha and us.

    Bebe loves Brendan!

    Paula was great! She sat down with us and discussed the issues we were having and got to know our…read moredogs. She gave us some very insightful tips and tricks to help us manage our highly reactive large dog. We are continuing to use her tips and are already seeing improvement in a couple days! We absolutely love her positive energy and would highly recommend her to anyone who needs some help with their reactive dogs.

    Where do we even begin with how much we (and our dog Lucca) love Paula?! She trains our dog for an…read morehour every week and trust me, that includes a ton of training for us as owners too, and it's really opened our eyes and minds to how much we have an impact on training our sweet girl. We adopted her about two months ago from a shelter and she came to us with her sweet personality but she was a stray and needs to learn to not pull in her leash and to work on some lunging issues. Paula not only trains her directly but spends time with us as the owners, explaining the "why". She is against using e-collars which thank goodness we never tried and contacted her instead. She focuses on the individual dog's history and personality and living environment and really tailors her training to your dog. She has a firm but kind approach which we love. We have already implemented her easy to follow and remember instructions during the week and see a difference! We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Paula! If you love your dog as much as we do, and your dog could use training, the absolute best thing you can do for them and your relationship with them is to have Paula come in and help! Mahalo Paula!

    I really don't want to give Marie a less than stellar review because for the most part I really…read morelike Marie and I think her intentions are good. I think there are some issues that were costly to me that might help you avoid the same. I'll start with the cons and end with the pros: Marie is all about the money and herself, first and foremost. You're not entering into a partnership. She's the boss. She can bend her rules, ask you to be flexible with scheduling and rescheduling but you can not. There is a language barrier that became more obvious over time. English is not Marie's native tongue. She also doesnt hear well (I dont either) so masking isnt an option. Lack of clarity in communication was a huge issue. Pros: Marie is positive, all positive, and uses Skinner's operant conditioning as her model. Lots of treats and rewards and ignoring the negatives. She understands dogs and their language. I saw great improvement in my dogs and their reactivity and regression in their potty habits while working with her. That improvement was in the first 3-5 sessions though. After that it was practice of the same with nothing new. I would not recommend buying a package. I quit the training with prepaid training sessions left. Ive worked with excellent trainers so maybe I'm spoiled. There's a lot of good stuff on the internet that's free, like Doggy Dan. In spite of it all, Im grateful for Marie and our time together and the improved relationships with my dogs and their more relaxed way of life since I'm more relaxed.

    I would give ProDog Hawaii 10 stars if I could! Marie has changed our lives for the better...we…read morewent from constant stress and tension to being able to relax and enjoy time with our dog. I was in search of a force free dog trainer after our 8 year old rescue dog had regressed after an event and had become fearful of pretty much everything and she became reactive towards my husband. I remembered a friend had worked with Marie years prior and she was highly recommended so I emailed through the website and received a very speedy, thorough and nice reply from Marie and quickly decided I wanted to work with her. We've also been working remotely with a Veterinary Behaviorist in San Francisco along with our local vet. Although we had not gotten her stabilized on medications, we started training right away. There were months of trying different medications and different doses, and our dog having bad side effects. We had Zoom sessions with Marie throughout this time and she was so helpful and supportive with giving us ideas and suggestions of what to try to get her from being in a frozen state of fear and building her trust and confidence. I just wanted my scared girl to stop hiding and be able to relax on the couch like she used to do. Marie has been so accommodating with our schedule (there were weeks I would postpone and reschedule due to our rescue girl not feeling well). Marie encouraged us to video our training and she would analyze the videos and she has taught me so much about our dogs body language. We have been working with Marie for about 4 months and have seen great improvement. She is off all behaviorial medications and rarely hides. She is much more tolerant of noises and is now eager and more engaged when we train. She is happier and more playful than she's ever been. We never would have gotten this far without Marie's guidance. She truly cares about her clients. She is so knowledgeable and is amazing at what she does. Thank you Marie for helping us build a better relationship with our sweet girl and helping her to gain more confidence!
