ABSOLUTE WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE--DO NOT TRUST ALLIE DOG TRAINER WITH YOUR DOG. I handed over $3,500 in March 2025 for their heavily promoted "On & Off Leash Advanced Obedience Program," explicitly promising 100% reliable off-leash control--full recall in any environment, off-leash heeling, the freedom to hike/camp/park/beach while maintaining total control at any moment, no matter the distraction. That was the core selling point I paid for. What I got? Zero off-leash reliability. Gunner is nowhere near off-leash safe--he ignores recalls completely in real-world settings, bolts toward people/dogs, and shows no dependable control whatsoever. The "training" was a total fraud on that front alone. On top of the complete failure to deliver the promised off-leash obedience, they returned my once-confident, healthy Cane Corso as a trembling, emaciated shell--ribs protruding like a rescue case, eyes filled with terror, cowering from me (his owner) for days as if I'd abused him. He arrived without the expensive bed and slip leash I provided, which they simply kept--no return, no explanation. No video updates ever arrived despite promising them every 2-4 days to monitor well-being. The fallout was immediate and severe: on April 14, 2025, Gunner exploded in panic while I was gone just three hours, shredding his heavy-duty crate into foam confetti and twisted metal. He later lunged aggressively at my girlfriend--behavior he never had before. They ghosted post-program, relocated without a word, ignored months of desperate messages for the promised follow-ups, and when cornered, gaslit me: blaming his starvation-look on the raw diet they approved, pretending they "tried" to help, and inventing a fake "remaining balance." These are not trainers--they are negligent scammers who traumatize dogs, steal belongings, pocket your money, and disappear. I'm thousands deeper now repairing the damage they caused to Gunner's body and trust. If you value your dog's safety and happiness, stay far away. Allie Dog Trainer delivers the opposite of what they promise--especially the off-leash control that is 100% nonexistent here. RUN--DO NOT GIVE THESE PEOPLE YOUR DOG OR YOUR MONEY. I paid $3,500 in March 2025 for their "Advanced Off-Leash Obedience Program" that explicitly promised 100% reliable off-leash control--perfect recall in any environment, off-leash heeling, freedom to hike, camp, go to parks/beaches while always having total control. That was the #1 reason I chose them. Reality: Gunner is 100% NOT off-leash safe. He ignores recalls completely in real-world settings, bolts toward people and dogs, and has zero dependable control. The core promise I paid for was a complete lie. When Gunnar was dropped off, my once-confident, healthy Cane Corso was a terrified, emaciated wreck--ribs protruding like a rescue dog, cowering from me for days as if I were a stranger. They kept his expensive bed and slip leash without a word. No video updates ever arrived despite promising them every 2-4 days. The fallout was immediate and terrifying: on April 14, 2025, Gunner panicked while I was gone just three hours and completely destroyed his heavy-duty crate--foam shredded everywhere, fabric ripped to pieces. He later lunged aggressively at my girlfriend, behavior he NEVER had before they "trained" him. Their public response to my concerns is pure gaslighting: claiming weight loss is "normal" for an anxious dog on a lean raw diet (a diet THEY accepted and monitored), saying dogs "regress" when returning home (so why charge $3,500?), and blaming me for not booking follow-ups--while conveniently ignoring that they relocated out of state without notice and stopped responding for months. They never provided the three promised free follow-ups, never sent care instructions, and now hide behind excuses like "communication was inconsistent" when I have the full text history showing me begging for help and them ignoring me. These people are not professional trainers--they are negligent, dishonest opportunists who take your money, return a traumatized and physically worse dog, steal belongings, disappear, and then post polished deflections when called out. I'm out thousands more fixing the damage they caused to Gunner's body, trust, and behavior. If you love your dog, stay far away from Wild Tails Dog Training / Allie Dog Trainer. They deliver trauma, not training. read more

If you treat your fur baby like a child, this place is for you. We absolutely love Allie. Allie has been our go to for dog boarding on multiple occasions. we highly recommend her. We used to board at a facility but we love that our pup Phoebe can stay with Allie in her home and she's comfortable. I'll never board Phoebe in a facility again. Allie is very communicative and sends updates via text each day which I appreciate so much! Drop off and pick up is so easy. When we pick up Phoebe, Phoebe is in great condition meaning she's not stinky or dirty. We trust Wild Tails with our precious angel because we know she's taken care of. She treats our pup as if she was her own. We will be forever loyal to Allie! And Phoebe loves her! read more

I don't even know where to begin! Allie is amazing. We came to her in desperate times because our husky mix Willow was attacked by a dog, and started having behavioral changes. So much so, that she started attacking her brother. I messaged Wild Tails for help, and immediately Allie responded with a possible solution. She was caring and helpful, so i knew my girl would be in great hands. During willow's time in boarding, Allie gave me updates multiple times throughout the week which made me feel so comfortable. They worked on leash control, reactivity and so much more. What I've learned throughout this process is that, the owner (me) still has to put in the work once your pup is home from the training! WildTails will lay the foundation, but you still have to be willing to continue the work at home. We are so pleased with their services. Needless to say, I would trust Wild Tails with all my future dogs! read more

I don't even know where to begin in providing rave reviews for WildTails LLC. This review is long overdue, but I can only hope to do Allie and Mario justice. I first discovered WildTails LLC when I sought a boarding program for my 2-year-old Rottweiler. While my dog already knew basic commands like sit and down from previous trainers, I was looking for more advanced training. Specifically, I wanted him to learn place, loose leash walking, off-leash walking, recall, and to improve his overall manners and obedience. I also wanted him to practice proper interactions with other dogs and needed a program that was tailored to his needs, with a comprehensive approach completed in as little as four weeks. After completing the boarding program at WildTails, my dog returned an even better version of himself. Not only did WildTails LLC achieve remarkable results, but they also equipped me with essential foundational knowledge and tools to continue his training and ensure his ongoing success. My only regret is that I didn't find Allie and Mario sooner! Allie is truly exceptional. Her customer service is outstanding--she is incredibly patient with all my questions and consistently responsive to anything I throw at her. WildTails LLC is a team of genuine canine behaviorists who care for your dog as if it were their own. They go above and beyond in every aspect, and their dedication is evident. Even after my dog successfully completed his training, I continue to have Allie and Mario in his life through their regular boarding and doggie daycare services. Thank you, WildTails LLC. We're so grateful to have you in our lives! read more

My dogs are very hyper and love to jump so I needed guidance on how to contain some of that excitement when I have friends and family come over. Allie taught my dogs how to relax on their place cot while guests are over and to not bark when the doorbell is rung. She also worked on their obedience and taught me how to walk on and off leash. I'm able to take them to the park and feel so much more confident in their recall. Also no more pulling!!!! It's been such a pleasure working with Allie and I've learned so much about the dog's mind and how it all applies to my current situation. Not only does Allie help you achieve a well-balanced dog, but she also instills excitement on all the possibilities you and your dog(s) can achieve. I highly recommended working with her, she makes this experience so much fun. read more

Cannot say enough good things about Allie and her business. We did the board and train for our Sheepadoodle, Duke. Duke would be all over the place when we walked him, pulling and trying to jump on people who came to our home. Thanks to Allie, we now have a very well trained dog that we can fully enjoy. Thank you, thank you, thank you a million times. read more

I'm so glad I decided to train my puppy with Wild Tails! My dog was challenging to walk due to him pulling so hard, and trying to go after anything that moves. After being away for a month, he came back so well behaved and ready to show off his new skills. I immediately took him to the park to practice and continue to develop my bond with him, he did an amazing job at listening to my commands every time. Thank you Wild Tails for all the hard work you put on my puppy. read more

From the first moment we reached out to Allie over text we felt a comforting vibe. We had already interviewed a lot of other trainers, but none of them felt like they were a good fit for our dog. Allie was very thorough, responsive and kind. She answered the silliest questions with grace & patience every single time. When we finally did meet Allie in person, I felt immediately comfortable and knew that our fur baby was in good hands. We choose the board and train program. We honestly feel like we got a brand new dog! Allie spent time with us in person & showed us how to continue her training our fur baby at home. I could go on & on about this girl and her training program! We will definitely recommend her to our friends and family! Thank Allie! read more

Wild Tails Dog training - Sunny willing going to "place" - Pet Training Near Me

Mario and Allie were absolutely phenomenal! They delivered an whole new polished dog. I have fallen in love with my dog again thanks to them both. They are an amazing team that has great knowledge and passion for their craft as dog trainers. They communicated with me the whole 4 weeks my dog was under their care, providing me with updates. One thing I observed on the day I picked up my dog from them was that my dog was not afraid of them at all! I'm fact he almost didn't want to come home, and that to me spoke volumes on how they not only trained my dog but also how much they cared for my dog. I recommend them to ANYONE, and they even do Military discount for prior service members! Thank you once again Allie and Mario, you guys rock! Now I can take my dog everywhere! read more

I was very impressed with the trainer's knowledge and experience. She was able to quickly identify my dog's problem areas. I highly recommend her! Thank you read more
