I cannot say enough wonderful things about Abby at Beyond the Dog! When I first started working with her, I was feeling completely helpless with my rescue Weimaraner, Millie. She had significant stranger anxiety and was extremely reactive in public. If she spotted someone even blocks away, or really anyone within…
We have had the BEST experience with this company helping us train our dogs. This time we worked with Abby. She helped teach our new puppy doorbell manners, walking on a leash, and stop chewing on everything! They are also so professional and work around your schedule and home environment. Abby has taught us the…
I hired Beyond the Dog as a last resort for my rescued pitbull. He has aggression problems and had started attacking one of my other dogs. He also was very uncomfortable with strangers in our house, to the point that we were wary of having people over. I was specifically looking for training for aggressive dogs. I…
Shyenne has been amazing with Bonnie! Before we started training, Bonnie was constantly pulling on the leash and completely obsessed with chasing lizards, which made walks pretty chaotic. After just a month of sessions with Shyenne, the difference is incredible. Bonnie is now walking calmly right by my side and is…
When we adopted Ellie, she had been abandoned after being hit by a car. She is the sweetest, funniest dog, but she also came with some significant behavioral challenges. We struggled with barking, reactivity, lunging, and after she bit someone, we knew she needed more help than we could provide on our own. After a…
Shyenne McCowan is definitely a very excellent dog trainer. She solved all the problems my dog Sweetie has. My dog used to be reactive to vacuum cleaner, microwave and hair dryer. After this training class, she is pretty relaxed with all those items now. The most important thing is that Sweetie can walk by my side…
Shyenne did a wonderful job training our Great Dane, Jane! She is much more obedient and the best part is I now know how to teach her myself. Shyenne is very knowledgeable and you can tell she enjoys what she does. Highly recommend!
I called Beyond The Dog to ask about training options for our lab mix 8 month old puppy, Vanilla. We had issues with excitability, jumping on guests and nipping. Vanilla is a great dog but all my training efforts just weren’t working and I was going thru puppy blues. Decided to go with their 4 week in home training.…
Shyenne is the best! She was a wonderful trainer and I sincerely appreciate her help with my reactive dog, Merlin. I decided to invest in Beyond the Dog training because Merlin would bark and lunge at other dogs when I'd walk him in my apartment complex. It felt like any attempt I made to help only made him more…
Never had this done before so i dont have a barometer but experience was pleasant, did a great job. Our dog was very often in hyper mode with lots and lots of bad habits. She is a puppy so we know that she will have some issues for a couple of years but now she is very manageable and is growing into the right…
Shyenne was amazing in our helping our puppy with TV reactivity. She has successfully graduated from the program and we are grateful to Beyond the Dog for working with her! Would highly recommend.
Our saga began with a super sweet but highly reactive dog, Cash, a 6 year old dachshund who is a bit larger than average - 20 lbs. He hid or barked at company, severe avoidance behavior and anxiety, and was difficult to walk anywhere close to people or other dogs. He had managed to pass three conventional dog…
We can’t say enough great things about Abby! When we first started working with her, our dog Theia was extremely aggressive and hyper-focused on our newborn, and we were honestly thinking we would have to rehome her. Abby completely turned things around for us. Not only did she help Theia become calm, safe, and…
Our Murphy boy has become such a good boy after the diligent and caring training provided by Shyenne who is an amazing trainer and great at what she does. He loved her so do we! Thanks for everything!
I cannot recommend Beyond the Dog Training in Houston enough. They have worked with both of my dogs—Annie, my one-year-old puppy, and Chico—and the transformation has been incredible. They helped us address multiple challenges, including Chico’s excessive barking and Annie’s anxiety, and also guided me on how to…
Beyond the dog was referred to me by a couple of friends after I disclosed to them that our puppy, although well intentioned, was just badly mannered and it was causing a ton of stress at the house as we also have a three-year-old toddler. After doing some research, I bit the bullet and decided to go with the…
Shyenne did an awesome job with Hamilton, Lincoln, and Penny. What was once chaos is now order…it was exactly what they needed and was done quickly and efficiently. Life is easier now!
Shyenne was amazing with our three pups! She came in and quickly gave us the skills we needed to live together peacefully with well trained dogs.
I cannot say enough positive things about the expert and loving training our puppy, Koa, received from Shyenne McCowan. The whole experience with Beyond the Dog training was so impressive, supportive and tailored to our personal needs/goals. Our first interaction was actually with Dr. Savage, founder, who…
Shelby was a wonderful trainer. My dog made great progress.
