I came to the class having owned and trained many dogs in an old fashioned manner and I left feeling like a whole new world had opened up in front of me. The training has completely changed the relationship with my dog and the way that we approach each other. I have gained knowledge as to why he does and why he does not do certain things and how to manipulate that to both our advantage. It is so much more than a class of sit and stay.

We are VERY PLEASED with Leo. He has not had one accident inside and he alerts us to his bathroom needs by barking and/or jumping at the back door. He is still very good at his tricks, too. The boys love giving him treats and making him do his tricks, especially in front of company. We are really grateful to you for all you have taught Leo. I cannot tell you the difference in him since he has been back only that it is now pure pleasure to have him around when before I would get a little stressed out. Amy from Louisiana |
| Well, I have to tell you that you worked magic with Willie! He has been fabulous! He only had one accident last night - none today. The crate stayed dry all night. He is really getting with the program (as well as I am) and seems happy and eager to try and please us. I was just thrilled with his behavior today. Later: Willie has continued to do great. Later: If there was success for Willie there can be success for any dog! You can quote me on that, too! Andrea from Bellaire |

After an incident at the vet’s office when Carys had to be sedated for a routine procedure, it was suggested that we attend obedience classes to help her overcome some of her anxieties. Six weeks with Tricia taught me how to help Carys overcome her fears from being a stray. I appreciated that Tricia was available to offer advice and suggestions when we faced setbacks, and that she worked with Carys at a level that made Carys comfortable. Now Carys is a happy, well-behaved one year old who listens better and has curbed her negative behaviors. I’d highly recommend Tricia and Dogs Gone Good! Cathy and Carys |
| Our entire family (dog included!) learned a lot from our Dogs Gone Good training class. Walking the dog is a more pleasant experience now that we have a better understanding of dog behavior and have learned new tools to keep our dog focused. We would recommend this class to anyone wishing to enhance their relationship with their dog. Getting the people and the dog on the same track makes for a happier home.

We just can't say enough about DogsGoneGood! Our initial meeting was an hour-and-half in-home session. Tricia came armed with the secret weapon: deli turkey. It's low in fat and our labradoodle LOVES it. She went though proper walking on a leash and relaxation techniques. Most importantly, she let us try the exercises and critiqued. After just one week of us working with our labradoodle on the things Tricia taught us, she was greatly improved. We also took advantage of doggie boot camp while on vacation for two weeks. Our dog came back calmer and better behaved. Tricia spent ample time with us reviewing everything she worked on and followed-up with us a few days later. We are so pleased with the results and would not hesitate to contact DogsGoneGood if any behavioral issues arise in the future.
Thanks for everything! |
| We sent our puppy to Tricia to gain some obedience training and she brought home to us a confident and well mannered young Lab. He is really the love of our family. His obedience is good and he is learning more each day as we practice the commands with him and we have since added one new command. He knows that obedience begets rewards and this is important in training him. We recommend Tricia and Dogs Gone Good to anyone who wants to entrust their beloved pet to a person who is a great trainer, but also one who puts her heart into caring for the pet you love.

My husband and I took Sophie, our beloved shepherd mix, to the six-week puppy course. We loved the schedule and accessiblity - Sunday afternoons at a local veterinary's office. |
| With several questions about the raising of two puppies, we contacted Tricia Fagan for a series of private sessions. We found Tricia very knowledgeable on the care and training of young puppies. Her approach to training was behavioral based with incentives. She is an experienced dog trainer who truly enjoys her occupation/vocation. Nancy from West University, Texas |

You are the best trainer I've ever had the pleasure of working with. I doubted that Bella would ever become a calm, attentive dog, but you had patience with the both of us and I can see your methods of positive reinforcement really do work. Her behavior is very much improved. Thank you so much! Jackie, Veterinary Student |
