Alesha and Ted were very easy to work with and gave updates whenever we asked. We also got to see her picture featured on the Facebook page. You will not regret working with them.

I don't mean tug I mean a yank that put fear in my dog's eyes.I tried not to yank very hard and the tall brunette women would come over and "show me" how much I had to yank. I'm pretty sure that's not the proper way to train with a herm Springer prong collar. I am new to dog training so I went one or two more times. When my dog was moping the day of her training the next time I said no more and never came back. It's very odd considering they say in the first session they use positive reinforcement only.

I GOT MY SERVICE DOG HERE AND HE SAVES MY LIFE. My boy, Damian, is a Tourette's and PTSD service…read moredog. While Marj is strict, she cares for the dogs. A lot. Actually, I was hesitant to pursue Glad Wags but I did some research, talked to Marj and decided to continue. I say Marj cares about the dogs because she does. I wish people could go on the service dog field trips and see us as a group in action. My dog is an Aussie and he can kind of smile when he wags his little Aussie tail. He gets so excited to see everyone at Glad Wags. Positive: -MARJ TEACHES US HOW TO LITERALLY MASSAGE OUR DOGS! That's pretty cool. Damian gets a massage twice a day. I wish I were him, sometimes! -The field trips are fun and its nice to see everyone working with their service dogs -Marj will genuinely train your dog. -It was a great experience for Damian. She chose a perfect dog that a. Loves to help b. Can detect and react to psychogenic nonepileptic seizures, tic attacks, interrupt self harming behaviors, and get me out of dissociations and flashbacks c. I have a very loving and trusting companion for life. -I have severe PTSD and Tourette's. Marj knows that and like with all disabilties is incredibly concious of it and helped me tremendously Negative: -If you get a GW dog, people will bring up the past A LOT. Big changes have happened with Glad Wags -You will have to wait for a dog and then training and then train in person with the dog, which can take months. That is NOTHING compared to the YEARS and wait lists everyone else had Overall, Marj changed my life. She is very, very good at working with disabilities. I can speak for no one else's experiences. Opinions are valid but my facts are that Marj trained a very happy dog and that single dog has stopped me from suicide attempts, seizures, panic attacks, self harm, and flashbacks all by himself thanks to Marj's training.

More than six months before my Tibetan Mastiff puppy was born, I began the search for a trainer for…read moreher. While I took a husky puppy to obedience training in the '90's and used that knowledge to put nice house manners on my dogs in the years that followed, I had no experience with this ancient guardian breed and knew I wanted to do more with her, including conformation dog shows. I spoke with at least 10 dog trainers in the Tulsa Metro and they unfailingly recommended the same training facility for the multiple training opportunities I was searching for--K9 Manners and More. When our girl was finally in our home and we had also found a Shih Tzu puppy the same age, we enrolled them both in puppy obedience class and also swim lessons. What an amazing experience this was! Our senior golden retriever also took swim lessons and we felt so much better that all three dogs could not only get out of the pool safely if they fell in, but also that our entire household understood how to train our new puppies. When we began the conformation classes with our trainer Kim, we learned far more than how to manage in the show ring; we also learned how to recognize the body language our dogs were expressing. Soon we began training for more than basic obedience and the show ring. Our Tibetan Mastiff bitch enjoyed the training lessons so much that she went on to earn her Puppy STAR Obedience, Canine Good Citizen certification, and Novice Trick Dog! Our Shih Tzu took another class and accompanied us to our private lessons to work on learning more as well. Soon my TM breeder and her granddaughter joined us occasionally for the lessons, and my new friend who had my TM's sister came too! Before we knew it, another breeder asked to join with her TM for some classes. This breed is notorious for being stubborn and difficult to train, and no one else around had any experience with Tibetan Mastiff training, so when people were surprised by how well trained my dog Zaya is, they were excited to take part in lessons with Kim! She helped my breeder's dog Magic get ready for and pass his CGC before he went to Westminster 2026, and helped both Magic and Zaya prepare for and pass their temperament tests. Yet another breeder from across the country heard of Zaya's success with Kim and brought me a puppy with poor socialization and high anxiety. Kim took on this pup as well and has achieved amazing progress with her. She will now accept treats from strangers and allow judges to go over her in the show ring. Zaya has now also completed her Farm Dog Certification and is a therapy dog working with CHAMPS. She is also actively working with me as my service dog. Another friend with Czechoslovakian Vlciaks has been training with K9 Manners and more in multiple disciplines for the last couple of years. She recently began training with us so that I can help show her dogs. The breed doesn't do well with outsiders, but with Kim's direction I was able to show two of her dogs at the 2026 Tulsa Canine Extravaganza. Halo and I even took Best of Breed one day! We could not have achieved all of these accomplishments without Kim and K9 Manners and More. We highly recommend them for all of your dog training aspirations, from group puppy and obedience classes, to agility, scent work, and dock diving, and everything in between. The trainers are outstanding and the pricing is reasonable. My dogs look forward to their time training with K9 Manners and More. So does my family!

With Jacob's 3 week board and train program, Gunner has improved significantly and has helped us, along with Gunner, be more confident in public, to be able to correct behaviors, and give us the guidance we need to continue to improve! Jacob has been phenomenal! He has been very responsive and transparent through the entire process! Jacob went above and beyond to make it personable during the 3 weeks, sent us videos, pictures, and called if there were any concerns. He even sent a video dedicated to our 2 year old who questioned consistently where Gunner was! She was excited once we continued to get videos.

If you are reading this review and looking into dog training, I highly recommend you call Thrive…read moreDog Training because you will be nothing but impressed and happy with the decision to have them train your dog(s)! Thrive Dog Training changed our lives and the life of our Pit Bull, Bossy, in a way I never thought was possible. She was a sweet and loving dog with my husband and I but she had many issues - barking at everyone and at every little noise; pulling when she was on a leash; jumping on guests and annoying them until they gave her attention or until they left our house; begging for food while we were eating and taking food right off our plates or hands when we weren't paying attention; peeing when she got nervous or excited regardless of where that pee went; totally freaking out whenever she saw another dog and wanting to attack the dog(s). We were not only annoyed and embarrassed with her behavior but we were also scared to death of her attacking someone or attacking someone's pet and us being sued and/or having to put her to sleep. We ended up purchasing a lifetime membership and it was worth every dollar and then some. Nathan and all of his staff at Thrive took the best care of Bossy and turned her into the perfect dog! Every bad trait and behavior of hers was gone. She was still the sweetest and most loving dog, but we were no longer afraid of taking her out in public or of her being around other people and other dogs; no longer embarrassed by her when guests came over; we no longer had to be annoyed or angry with her because now when she got excited, she kept her excitement contained and stayed obedient which eliminated her accidents all over the house. Best decision we ever made! Unfortunately Bossy passed away recently but when we do decide to get another puppy or adult dog, they will be trained by Nathan and his staff also!

They knew his behavior. They recommended Metro Mutts at 13th and Peoria. My dog is afraid of everything and his dog is very aggressive around new people. These people are fantastic. You would swear they had degrees in dog psychology. The facility has a dog play area with boarding not in crates, but in individual units where the dog has plenty of room to move around. They called with a report the day before we returned to reassure us that the dogs were doing well. My son's Scottie loved playing with the big dogs and my dog was a little more standoffish, but she did go into the area. When my son bent down to pet my dog, she let him. For eight years she has growled when he came to visit me. Today she accepted his attention calmly. The Scottie follows one of the care givers around he was so attached.
