The trainer was AMAZING and helped us understand what the dogs need from us and within 2 sessions I felt confident and our dogs are wonderful. I was told by multiple trainers that we may have to rehome one and it was devastating. I HIGHLY suggest Great expectations dog training. She made sure all of our questions were answered and makes me feel like we aren't alone. Such a blessing!

In one session with Dawn, I learned that my new rescue dog's strong aggression toward my blind 12…read moreyr. old rescue wasn't hopeless. It was fear based.

There was a lot to learn but she presented it in a way that was not intimidating. The entire staff made us feel welcome. I couldn't believe everything that was included in the $35 one time/drop in class, how clean the facility was, and how much fun our dog had. A great place to learn!

As a further waste of my time, I was given one price for training only to be upsold once I was in person. It's great they have these favorable reviews but my experience was completely negative. It's probably worth noting these reviews seem to be rather dated. Perhaps the management changed or ownership changed. The staff needs to take more copious notes when initially speaking with potential clients. In my experience if the manager had a modicum of common sense she would have offered a discount on a class for the inconvenience they caused.

She individualized the training since every dog is different and sent us individual group reminders of that day's lesson. She also offered more lessons as needed (this was just a 6 week dog manners class) and usually spoke to us each for our questions if they were not applicable to all. My dog will probably need more!

We adopted our dog about a year and half ago and unfortunately even after hiring several other trainers, we were not having much success. He is extremely fearful and basically scared of his own shadow. He is a sweet dog to the people he chooses but with strangers barked and was protective of me. He's come a long way with Alese's training and I'm sure with continued training by us, he will get even better. We highly recommend Alese @ Maes and Bluey. Laura and Gregg

Back when I lived on a 40-acre ranch in Northern California, I had plenty of space and other dogs around to help with the process. When my wife and I were fostering dogs in Michigan, she fell in love with a Miniature Pinscher mix named Obi. He was different from any dog I'd trained before, and without other dogs to help with training, it was a challenge. We needed Obi to be able to travel the world with us and assist my wife with her PTSD. Within six weeks, Fred from The Dog Wizard trained us on how to make Obi an incredible companion. The transformation was night and day. Now, Obi walks calmly by our side unless given the 'free' command. He accompanies us to stores, ignoring everything and everyone around him. One of his biggest issues was reacting to other dogs on leash--no longer a problem! Recently, we visited a crowded cider mill with hundreds of kids running around. Obi stayed calmly by my feet, unaffected by the chaos. Kids asked to pet him, and I explained he was working. I can't say enough good things about Fred; he's like family now. What he did for us truly means the world to me."
