Shaunacy from Zen Dog was amazing with my dog. He’s reactive with other animals and people, she helped me put plans in place for having guests, walking him, introducing him to new animals, etc. He has been doing much better after training! the support and resources provided were amazing :)

Shaunacy was a lifesaver for my dog Maisy!! She was having severe separation anxiety issues (howling) and I finally decided to get professional help. Our one on one sessions were so so so helpful. We were able to stop the separation anxiety behaviors altogether; Maisy is like a different dog. I know if any other behavior issues come up in the future, I’ll definitely return to Zendog!

Alexis is amazing!! My five year old pitbull mix (40 pounds) is a rescue and is reactive to dogs on leash; her name is Penny. Penny was also protective of our apartment building. This made it difficult to go on walks and even in / out of my own building because she would lunge, pull, bark and basically go ballistic at dogs and people going in/out of my building. I was anxious going on walks with my dog so I looked for a trainer who can help with reactivity problems. Alexis is extremely knowledgeable and taught me about Penny''s behavior and how a dog's brain works. I bought the 8 week training pack. Alexis came to my apartment to train with me and Penny. Over the course of 2 months, I have seen a SIGNIFICANT change in Penny's behavior. Penny walks nicely on the leash (with treats and training protocols) and we've built a closer bond. It seems like a completely different dog and I'm no longer scared to go on walks with Penny. Alexis is extremely friendly and her training is customized for your dog - no one-size-fits-all training. I loved that she listened to our needs and would recommend training exercises accordingly. I love her approach to dog training! I highly recommend Alexis!!

Alexis has been so great with my leash reactive cattle dog mix - she comes up with training plans that are specific to my dog’s needs but also address the behaviors that I as the owner need to modify. I’ve worked with a few different trainers in the city but hadn’t seen any real progress until working with Alexis. Highly recommend!
