It was a complete disappointment that came with a heavy price tag. Mike, the owner, supposedly an…read moreexperienced dog trainer, during our first meeting, deliberately "forgot" to mention that the training of a 5-year old dog should be or might be different than training a puppy. The results spoke for themselves. However, he was quick to demand the full payment, which exceeded $2,000, without any recourse. In a nutshell, we were made to prepay a stranger we met only 20 minutes earlier, who was giving us a typical sale "shpiel" of his company being the best around. What a lie! Apparently, the love for our dog made us forego requisite due diligence and caution in choosing a dog trainer. There was no methodology as to how to train our dog most basic functions. For example, while the first trainer, Dana, kept feeding our dog treats every 2 minutes to make him compliant, the second trainer, Shan.... (forgot her full name) abandoned the "feeding" practice, but suggested to cross the street if the dog was pulling in a different direction during the walk. Contrary "techniques" between the 2 trainers were obvious. After 6 sessions and countless walks and "in-home practices" with and without trainers, our dog did not learn much (in fact, he regressed) and we gave up on Michael's Dog Training because we saw no progress. We realized we were wronged. Bottom line, we strongly do not recommend this business.

When we lived in NJ, we used Big Tail Waggin' for our previous dog and were extremely pleased with…read morethe outcome of our sweet heart who has since passed. We moved to GA, and when we got a new lab puppy, there were no trainers who provide the same training as Roseann. All the trainers here technique are very aggressive and made our dog aggressive and defensive. At my wits' end, I reached out to Roseann and asked if we can facetime and help me and my dog. After speaking with her and going through the history of my dog, she explained what exactly is the reason behind my dogs behavior! And listening to her, we already see a change in my dog! So I thank God for modern technology to be able to have a session long distance and work with Roseann. I am so relieved and much happier and so is our Chelsea.

We started working with Roseann when our (at the time) one year old deaf dog, Lola, started having…read moreserious behavioral difficulties. We had previously sought help from another local trainer, but her problems only worsened despite our efforts. After an in- depth consultation and meeting, unlike the other trainer we had consulted, Roseann strongly urged us to first seek professional veterinary help before beginning training with her. Because at that point we felt helpless and as though we were out of options, we decided to heed her advice and visit UPenn's Behavior Department to meet with a team of veterinary professionals. Roseann joined us that day so she could be involved with the planning of Lola's subsequent training protocols as suggested by the Veterinary Behaviorists. I believe the efforts of the interdisciplinary collaboration that day saved Lola's life; it turns out that she had several underlying medical conditions that were exacerbating her existing behavioral issues. After that visit, Roseann tirelessly worked with us to follow through with the training protocols given to us at UPenn. Things started to slowly improve with Lola and we finally began to see positive changes. Once unable to have any houseguests, Lola learned to become tolerant of visitors by engaging in alternate behaviors that made her feel safe when they arrived at the house. Once intolerant of unfamiliar humans approaching her, we learned how to use counter conditioning exercises to help her remain calm and non-reactive. We continued working with Roseann for the next several years and have made progress which I never thought possible. Although Lola's fear and anxiety will always prevent her from behaving like a "typical" dog, we've successfully learned how to manage her behavior so she can live a happy life. Roseann's compassion and empathy is unmatched, as she treats each client as she would her own dog(s). Roseann remains abreast of the most up-to-date research and utilizes only the most humane, scientifically based training techniques with her clients. It is these qualities which set her apart from others in the unregulated field of animal training. We are forever indebted with gratitude to Roseann for sharing her expertise and knowledge with us.

I can't say enough good things about Jen - she was wonderful through the entire process, donating months of training Mayor to help detect when Nolan is about to have a seizure, and more.

We have a home and lifestyle that seemed to better suit his needs, but he still had confidence issues that we wanted to work on. Plus, his mannerisms were starting to rub off on our other dog, so we knew we needed help. Ryan worked with us during three sessions and after each we saw a notable difference in both of our dogs. Ryan is friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable- he took time at each session to answer our list of questions and make suggestions for improvement. We are really looking forward to continuing to watch our dogs' confidence grow as we practice everything Ryan has taught us. We HIGHLY recommend Baker Dog Training!
