here's what our clients have to say about...
...our training services:
"Thank you for teaching me that I was the one pulling. She's like a whole new dog now, it's amazing." - Mary & Nya
"Madalyn helped me understand my small dog from the time she was a puppy so that she and I have a strong bond and communication link and has helped me teach other family members. Thanks. And Honey loves coming to Mad4MyDog." - Nancy & Honey
"I saw your email about retaking the Lose Leash Walking Workshop, and I was intrigued until I realized Otto is just so dang well-behaved on a leash, we don't even need it! He's grown up to become so well behaved, well socialized, and well adjusted, I couldn't be happier. He's fantastic with kids of all ages, unfazed by fireworks or loud noises, loves fetch, and very obedient on and off the leash. I don't think any of this would have been possible if he hadn't spent so much time at Mad 4 My Dog when he was a pup, both in classes and puppy playdates." - Maggie & Otto
"I took our new little pup to a preschool puppy class at Mad4MyDog Training LLC in Ellettsville, led by my friend Madalyn McKenney. I have known this woman for years, but I have never seen her in her element, and let me tell you, I think you would be hard pressed to find a better, more competent, more reassuring, more researched, or more prepared class for training, socialization, or skills for your canine family members. She is a wealth of knowledge and information, has relevant and easy to follow directions, prepared materials and compassion about animal and human training (because let's be real, that's what these classes are really all about). I am super grateful for the opportunity to get this little dog into a good and healthy routine right from the start. I highly recommend Madalyn for any of your dog training needs." - Katja & Shakti, Puppy Preschool
" I have been taking him for walks on his regular leash (instead of the harness) every day, and except for the initial reminders that happen during the first 5 minutes (i.e., “No tug!”, and a stop, when he generally turns right to me and looks up!)…he is mostly walking right by my side now, and making eye contact every 30 seconds or so!" -Carolyn & Finn, Loose Leash Walking Workshop
"Nina and I took the Reactive Dog class last October. Although she struggled in the class, you taught me how to work around her reactiveness on the leash. I’m proud to inform you that we have continued the training. For the past couple of weeks we have been getting closer and closer to other dogs without reaction! Today we walked past two dogs (non-reactive) and the only thing Nina did was puff a little. Your training (mostly training me) has completely changed Nina! She’s become a different, well-mannered dog on walks! I just wanted to let you know we are so thankful we took your class." -Hayley & Nina, Reactive Dog Class
