Darby is 3 yrs old and I thought he would be difficult to train but Lauren changed our lives. THANK YOU Lauren!

We adopted Johnny, our Great Dane, from a Florida shelter, knowing he came with some baggage. At…read morejust 180 pounds of pure muscle and anxiety, Johnny had already been given up twice and returned for behavioral concerns. From day one, we noticed he was a unique mix of overly territorial, overly protective, and easily overwhelmed. With strangers, or in chaotic situations, he'd bark, growl, lunge, and snap--not out of aggression, but sheer stress. During one of our first walks, a passing bicycle set him off so much he yanked me clean off my feet, leaving me sprawled out in the dirt, contemplating my life choices. At home, though, he was nothing but sweet--a gentle giant with his family. Desperate for help, we turned to TM Canine Services. Enter Tyler--the dog whisperer, the miracle worker, and Johnny's future bromance. Our journey didn't exactly start smoothly. At the very first class, Tyler approached us and suggested a better collar for Johnny. As I got Johnny into the car to swap it out, he went full chaos mode--snapping at Tyler and then at me. I was shaken and unsure if I should stay or go. Tyler reassured me, encouraging us to stay and observe, only interacting as I felt comfortable. Despite how rattled I was, I decided to stick it out--and I'm so glad I did. I needed to build my confidence, and Johnny desperately needed the experience. It became clear group classes were too overwhelming for Johnny, so we switched to private lessons. Slowly but surely, progress happened. Tyler's patient, no-nonsense approach, combined with his kindness and deep knowledge of dogs, worked wonders. Eventually, Johnny graduated back into group classes, where he added his own flair--like sitting down to spin in circles or flopping like a fish out of water on his back when he got bored. Fast forward two years, and Johnny is a completely different dog. He's calmer, more obedient, and while he's still overwhelmed sometimes, he's learning to trust the world again. His favorite person? Tyler. We're so grateful for Tyler and TM Canine Services for never giving up on Johnny, even when it felt like a lost cause. Tyler didn't just teach Johnny how to behave; he taught us how to understand him. If you've got a dog that's a little too much--too scared, too strong, too stubborn--Tyler's your guy. We can't recommend him enough!

We did the 2 week board & train package, and the transformation was amazing! In just a fortnight, Roux went from being a 75 pound meat missile that bowled over everything in his path, to possessing a calmness and a spatial awareness that I didn't even think was possible. Sarah was in contact with me the whole time, sending video updates everyday of their progress. She even brought Roux out to a couple of my jobsites to work with us hands on. All of my friends and colleagues were amazed by how well behaved he had become. We still have quite a bit of work to do before we can get to where he will be able to be off leash at the shop, but Sarah laid such a strong foundation of training that I know we'll get there pretty quickly. My family and I can't thank her enough. The calmness she provided has made life for all of us, including Roux, so much more enjoyable. Thank you Sarah!
