We could not have higher praise for Megan and Beyond the Dog. Before the training started, Megan told us that she would have our dog walking down busy trails like the Katy Trail within 5 weeks. We didn’t believe that was possible because our dog was so reactive around other dogs, people, etc. Megan completely transformed our dog. He is so much calmer than he was before, and we can now take him places we never thought we could. Cannot recommend Megan and Beyond the Dog enough!!

Megan is nothing short of a lifesaver. Our pup, Katy, was on the streets for about 3 months before we were able to trap her and bring her home (no clue what her first 3ish years looked like). She was terrified, skittish, shut down/withdrawn, and zero in confidence. Before we started with Megan, Katy’s world was so small, and we were at a loss, our other trainer was at a loss, and all we wanted was to give Katy the life she hadn’t yet had. Megan gave her all that and more. She’s no longer terrified of leashes, the outside, or our apartment. Just a week into our sessions with Megan, she started wagging her tail. She’s now so confident on walks, exploring the apartment, and has started showing her silly personality. I credit Megan entirely - we obviously followed her advice outside of sessions to a T, but she so thoughtfully curated how to work with our pup, and drove so much progress in her sessions with Katy. Megan is brilliant in her work, and I trust her wholeheartedly. I can’t thank or recommend her enough!!!!

I cannot recommend Beyond the Dog highly enough. This is truly a top-tier dog training and behavior modification service that has delivered genuine, life-changing results. If you are looking for professional dog trainers with unparalleled expertise in addressing complex behavioral issues, look no further. Our dog, Eos, struggled intensely with skittishness and high-level anxiety around busy environments. Before working with Megan, her training felt like an uphill battle, and we were struggling to help her build confidence. The training program was exceptional. The approach was perfect for positive reinforcement and was highly customized to Eos's specific needs and our lifestyle. Megan was patient, deeply knowledgeable, and masters at communicating not just what to do, but why the techniques work. The transformation in Eos's confidence was beyond our expectations. She is significantly less reactive, her overall skittish behavior has vastly improved- she is now able to enjoy walks and new experiences that were previously impossible. This improvement is a direct result of the invaluable guidance we received from Megan & Beyond the Dog. We are incredibly grateful for training. For anyone seeking the best dog trainers who focus on long-term behavioral health and positive outcomes, Beyond the Dog deserves your highest recommendation. Thank you for giving Eos, and us, a more comfortable, confident life! ❤️

Our dog just finished training program today and we’re absolutely thrilled with the results! Megan is a magical trainer — in just a few weeks, she helped turn our pup into one that behaves like a service dog. We’re so thankful for her patience, skill, and the love she puts into her work. Highly recommend Megan if you’re looking for someone who truly understands dogs!

Beyond expectations!! Megan is a miracle worker. Our 1.5 year old shelter pup was unwalkable because he was so reactive that it was dangerous for everyone involved (he pulled me over and ran across a busy street). After the first week, we already saw major improvement. Now, we get compliments from strangers not only about how cute he is but about how calm and well behaved he is! The in-home structure of the program was extremely convenient for our busy schedules. The psychology based training philosophy is incredibly effective and felt kind. Megan was so patient, helpful, and knowledgeable. I always knew our pup was in good hands, and he absolutely loves her (he was more excited to see her when she came for her last follow up lesson than he is to see me come home half the time). This was truly an incredible experience that helped us be the dog owners we want to be. I can’t recommend Megan enough!!!
