"We love Melissa!! We’ve been taking Abby to her since she was a puppy, for basic training, one-on-one sessions, and agility training. Melissa is so good at being able to teach good behaviors in gentle ways, I’ve so appreciated her insight and expertise over the years. Melissa is patient and passionate and I can’t sing her praises enough, our girl Abby is 4 now and she’s well-behaved, confident, and eager to learn new things—we have Melissa to thank for all of that!"

"Melissa was a pleasure to work with! She is friendly, courteous of my time and home, and maintains a professional attitude for her work. Melissa was patient with the learning curve for both me and my puppy and she provided training techniques and commands to cater to our specific needs. Training with Melissa and using her methods helped develop a stronger bond between me and my dog!"
— Andrew P. and Levi
“I would highly recommend Melissa Nelson for service and therapy dog training services! She is knowledgeable in the skills and obedience requirements for you to have the bestest dog!
Nash and I took Melissa’s Therapy Dog class for 8 weeks. She sequenced the classes and skills to build upon the previous week so that Nash was able to master the mock therapy dog test.
Do yourself a favor and use Melissa Nelson for all your do training needs!”

“Our family used Melissa to train our Bernedoodle to be a service animal. Her patience and professional manner were amazing. Our dog Enzo learned all the commands and has become the most amazing service animal. We have moved since all of Enzo's training and live in a community where Enzo is the only animal that has ever been permitted in the club house and dining rooms of our club. His training has helped me in many ways, he accompanies me everywhere and is always well behaved. All of these things are because of the incredible training we received from Melissa. If you want your animal trained, I would highly recommend her.”
