A definite for dog training. Bo learned so much and improved behavior after training with Mandy at Manners Matter. We both enjoyed working with her. Highly recommend for your training needs
Highly recommend Manners Matter for training and doggy daycare! Becka and Mandy handle our training questions so well and have helped us learn so much. Our pup loves everyone there and we look forward to continuing his training and doggy daycare well into the future. They feel like family and your dog learns to be a better behaved pup. Win win
Mandy was very knowledgeable and insightful during our consultation! Our dog Dash is very fearful and has lots of issues he needs to overcome. She gave us a plan and some great ways we can begin working with him. I would highly recommend, she is the best in Lexington! Will definitely be back :)
My high-energy dog has gone to Manners Matter daycare and enrichment programs multiple times/week for almost two years. I have also participated in their group training programs. Prior to going here, I tried out a few other places in Lexington and had hoped the other places would work out because they were a lot closer to home and work. We go to Manners Matter -- despite the 45 minute round-trip drive -- because they take great care of my dog, they are organized, the trainers use and teach positive-reinforcement, they have several certified trainers on their team (i.e., not just people who like dogs) and their facility is very clean. And I cannot emphasize the cleanliness enough -- several other places I tried out smelled like urine even from the lobby or our dog came home smelling like harsh chemicals. Their training programs -- from the day training to personal training to their ongoing classes -- have been very helpful in addressing specific concerns as well as improving my dog's general behavior in new environments. I highly recommend Manners Matter and their team.
I have learned so much from Mandy about dogs even after owning them myself for over 40 years. It is really about us as to what kind of experience we have with our dogs and how happy we both can be in life together! She is kind, knowledgeable, patient and always genuinely excited to train us! I can't say enough about the daycare experience. My puppy has been there since he was a baby and his socialization skills and attention are beyond belief at only 7 months old! Would never have happened without her...she is a giver and I'm lucky to know her!

Where positive training meets loving daycare for a well-behaved, happy pup!
