    Just finished our ten week class. Jennifer and Cindy are amazing. They are patient, kind, knowledgeable, and ready to help the entire way. We did a few privates in the beginning and then eventually joined a class. We have two puppies so it was important we had a good starting point and wanted to enter the program with the right intentions and the time is takes to be successful. I researched a lot of options for dog training. So happy I choose them. You won't be disappointed in the level of expertise and guidance as you and your dog become successful in your training.

    We placed 4th at graduation.  :)

    I met Cindy back when we trained a dog through Dany Canino. We just took on two puppies this spring and I was so impressed with the results with Dany and Cindy years ago, I was happy to see that Cindy and Jennifer we keeping the program going. My wife and I had Jennifer and Cindy over for Puppy training in home and then later took the 10 week training this summer. The 10 week class is commitment and work, but sticking with it and putting in the time is worth the work. Today I had to take one of my dogs to the Vet. It was so nice to have a dog that could hold a down command in the waiting area with other dogs and cats around. In the exam room, not only was my dog able to stand for exam on the table and not move around, but he was very calm and allowed the Vet to check his mouth, teeth, jaw, back, legs, ears, neck and feet with no fidgeting on the table. Having a very well behaved dog at the Vet was one of the benefits of the class. Professional no non-sense instruction is very much appreciated. We can walking on the leash without pulling. My dogs stay at the front door when it is opened and dont bolt out, these are all great things we learned to do in class. I am still working with my dogs and look forward to taking more classes with Jennifer and Cindy. Just one last word of encouragement. Stick with it till the end, you will be amazed at how much your dog's behavior will change is such a short amount of time.

    I can not say enough amazing words about Time 4 Obedience with Jennifer and Cindy. Brooklyn is a standard​ poodle that was a little​ stubborn​. My dad went about halfway through​ the class and then just stopped​. A few years later Brooklyn and I​ were​ attacked by a dog. Brooklyn started​ having PTSD symptoms​. She was super nervous​,head snapping​​,growling, very unsure of herself. She was super scared to be around dogs and humans. I decided to reregister her again and stick with the whole program this time. 10 weeks and daily training I saw a huge amount​ of​ improvement. I stuck with it and now I have a new dog that just graduated​ from the first class. I see a new dog that enjoys​ working​ with me. She is not confused about the commands that I give her. Her confidence with humans and dogs is amazing. I was at one point so ready to give her away and I am glad that I did not make that​choice. We are a team now that understand each other way better. Going to the vet, getting a bath it's​ not a battle or a game of chase or having her make big a scene​. I know that the classroom time is over but the tools and the training​ that I learned are not to be forgotten but to be used every day​​. We will be continuing​ to another class and over the summer we are going to sharpen up the basics we leaned. As well as going to tune-ups​ in the park. I would love to see her go on and win some ribbons​ and achievements​ as well. If you have a puppy, dog or an older dog please join a class. You will see a difference​ if you put the work in and take charge and become a leader for your dog no matter the size or age. Brooklyn gives​ Jennifer and Cindy two paws ups and a big tail wag and a smile. !!!!! She had a barken good time.

    I don't have words to express how happy I am with Jennifer and Cindy's Obedience 4 Life training program. I took Obedience 4 Life with my Rottweiler puppy, Nala, when she was 5 months old, and the transformation was dramatic. If you stick to the program, and get an occasional private lesson as needed, then you can rest assured that your dog will be trained to your hearts content. As a puppy, Nala was very loving but also rambunctious. Walks were difficult, she would not listen, and we felt hopeless. From week 1 of the training program, we were taught how to teach Nala to watch us the entire walk. From then on, the 10 week transformation began. By the end of the program, I ended up moving to Long Beach. I was able to feel comfortable that my dog wouldn't run out of the door the moment it opened it up to the busy street, and was happy to know that when my dog was off-leash at the dog beach, she would always be within 15 feet from me. I couldn't be happier with the results I received from Cindy and Jennifer. Their private lessons and guidance really taught me that in many cases it is the owner that needs training and not always the dog.

    Our girl won the blue ribbon!

    Lindsey's Waggin' Tails Pet Training - Lindsey  McGeorge during a group dog training session!

    Lindsey's Waggin' Tails Pet Training

    (13 reviews)

    Solid pet training classes…read more Relaxed atmosphere, affordable, great park location where classes are held. Lindsey is a patient trainer. Her group classes are designed for dogs that need to learn basic commands. We have been going for a few months off and on with our puppy. He is now 6 months old and he has benefited from the socialization alone on top of learning commands: sit, down, stay, leave it, and come. I like that we are teaching our dogs to be confident around all types of dogs and people. We work on specific issues for certain dogs in a group session. All the dogs practice proper listening and control commands so that they become more obedient. The dogs play at the end. Timid and fearful dogs as well as floppy puppies attend. Lindsey has a relaxed way of keeping all the dogs working towards their goals. These classes are definitely designed to be repetitive. You need to work on the commands at home but if you aren't great about it and just keep going to class with your dog you will still benefit. We love that Lindsey has a pay if you show policy. You don't need to sign any contract or pay ahead. Just pay for class when you go. At $15 for a one hour class, it is a very affordable way to get your new puppy or young dog some quality training and socialization. Highly recommended!!!

Sydney is very responsive, empathetic to her clients and pups, and provides above and beyond resources on how to continue the lessons she provides during her training sessions to ensure that your pup will come out a grade A student! Would I recommend Sydney to other fur baby owners? Absolutely and I wish her the best in her continuing practice! 10/10 would recommend! PS Theo misses his training sessions dearly with Sydney! (-:

    I'll start off by saying I'm so glad out of all the dog trainers I was talking to for my boy, I…read moredecided to come to Matan! More specifically, the trainer Amelia is who my boy Finn, my family, and I are grateful for! My Australian Shepherd Finn is a good boy who has a lot of love to give, is goofy, and a ton of energy to go with him. But, while I love him to death, before training with Amelia he was always really reactive and sometimes aggressive with other dogs, super stubborn with commands, bad resource guarding, and even really bad leash walking. We've been training for a couple of months now, and my boy Finn has come such a long way! While he still has work to do and much more to learn, Amelia has helped us transform Finn into a much better dog in and outside of the house. I can take Finn for walks and not really ever worry about him pulling or getting reactive towards random dogs or people now. He's following his commands not just in the house, but out in public with distractions all around him. We're able to be near him while eating or even take toys or food away without him getting mad like he previously used to when he had resource guarding issues. He's even able to be in group classes now with many other dogs and he's able to participate, be engaged, and enjoy his time there with the other people and dogs! While I can't put everything that Amelia has helped us with, I can 100% say she has been such a good trainer for us and for Finn. Like I said, he still has much to learn but Amelia has helped us and my boy grow so much in the short time we've had. And even after all his training, he's still the same goofy, sweet, energetic boy he was before, just so much more mature and in control of his actions. Thank you Matan dog training and thank you Amelia!

    I'm highly upset and disappointed with this company. If you didn't read my husband's review…read morealready, I want to explain my frustrations. My sweet 1-year-old German Shepherd, Oso, was scheduled for a 2-week board-and-train and came home under horrible circumstances. We've had Oso since he was a baby and taught him the basics ourselves (Sit, Down, Wait, Up, Free, Spin) using positive reinforcement. See Video 1 for an example. Oso has had high reactivity toward other dogs, which we made very clear was something he needed training on. The trainers kept saying that he likes to "pick fights" with other dogs. I understand Oso has a big bark, but he has never once been aggressive toward another dog. We understand aggression can occur, and I'm not a dog trainer, so if that's what you call "picking fights," so be it. (See Video 2 for an example.) In Video 2, you can also see two trainers come together to talk about Oso's dewclaw. They didn't even know what it was called and referred to it as "weird," which I took offense to. Keep this dewclaw in mind, because that story isn't over. Communication overall was poor. For $2,000, I would expect, at minimum, pictures or videos every day. Mind you, when Oso was home, I had a dog walker who walked him for 30 minutes every day and sent me multiple videos along with a map of where they went on their walk. With this company, the pictures we received were mostly just Oso sitting outside on their dirt patches. We received two videos of Oso on the dog treadmill, with no explanation until I asked how long he was on the treadmill for. I felt like I constantly had to ask for information, and if I didn't ask, it wasn't a priority. Oso also came home with what looks like pimples on the inside of his mouth (see image). He did not have these prior to going there, as I am very conscious of everything regarding his health and appearance. The facility may not have noticed this, but I believe they would not take responsibility for it. I'd love to hear the excuse they would give: "These things happen." On the last day of his training (go-home day), we were already struggling to make the appointment because my husband and I are both active-duty military and can't just leave work. My husband received a call that Oso was receiving his bath, and during his blow-dry session, his dewclaw got caught in the grate and RIPPED OUT. I can't imagine the pain he was in. They took him to a local pet hospital, which didn't even see him until SIX hours after his initial arrival. After many attempts to get in touch with them regarding payment, Matan finally called and said he would cover it and that "things like this happen." I would love to see the camera surveillance and a written report of what happened. I can only imagine what the excuse will be as to why I'm not able to receive these from Matan. Oso is home with us now and recovering. We are extremely dissatisfied and honestly can't forgive ourselves for giving this company $2,000 for this treatment. Matan, to make this right, a refund is due--or at least half. We should have known we made a mistake when we paid first and then signed the contract stating refunds are not given. You were so personable and reassuring over the phone before booking, which unfortunately fooled us. Never will Oso or any of us be near this company again. I hope this review helps other responsible dog owners think twice before choosing this company

Jennifer and her team worked with Sophie over a three-week training program, and the results were impressive. Sophie now has great leash manners and has mastered all her basic commands.

She found out we have a horse background and used that to our advantage--explaining training techniques in ways that made total sense to us. She gave examples that tied into the horse world, which made the process so much more intuitive and familiar. She also helped address Maverick's excitement around other dogs, which stems from his strong herding instincts. With Jennifer's guidance, he's now calm and focused on us. Jennifer is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and truly cares about setting both the dog and owner up for long-term success. We're so thankful for the transformation she helped us achieve with Maverick!
