HOW WE CAN HELP

IS YOUR DOG PULLING YOU DOWN THE STREET ON  WALKS?

DO YOU WISH YOUR DOG WOULD STOP JUMPING ON PEOPLE?

HAVE YOU TRIED EVERYTHING YOU KNOW TO DO, BUT IT IS JUST NOT HELPING?

We help families just like yours all the time. We can help you get your dog to listen, even if other training hasn't helped as much as you hoped it would.

WHO ARE WE?

WE CAN HELP!

Right now your dog might be driving you a little crazy... it's not what you imagined when you first decided to bring them home!

Imagine knowing your dog will listen to you reliably, instead of only when they feel like it, when they are not distracted, or when you have a treat. Imagine being able to simply tell your dog "quiet", and they instantly stop barking. Or you say "come" and they immediately and happily run over to you.

What if walks with your dog were relaxing, fun and easy? You can even calmly and confidently walk past other dogs, people, squirrels and even the skatepark ... with no worries.

MANNERS AT HOME

No more yelling "stop!!"

Jumping on people, barking at every leaf that blows, stealing food... we will help you make sure your dog listens around the house!

LISTENING OUT & ABOUT

Off leash freedom...

Your dog is off leash often, especially around the house. Have the freedom to go on adventures and know your dog will listen, wherever you are.

BE PROUD

No more embarrassment!

Many families tell us they avoid going for walks (because their dog practically pulls them off their feet!) or avoid having company because their dog's behavior is embarrassing. Now instead you will get compliments on how great your dog is!

TRULY ENJOY YOUR DOG

Fun times as a family.

Whether it's going camping, to the beach, or hanging out when friends visit, your dog will put a smile on everyone's face. Now you will look forward to walks because you will know your dog will listen even around distractions.

Ripley is now able to relax with us calmly, have play times without going bonkers, go on walks without pulling/yanking, happily hang out on his cot near us and is house trained (mostly…he is still a puppy!). He went on an extended vacation with us, and we honestly can’t imagine taking the trip without Meghan’s training of all of us!

I credit Meghan at Beacon Bay Dog Training for saving not only my sanity but my relationship with my puppy! For me, it was a matter of swallowing my pride and reaching out for much needed professional guidance/training. Blessed to find the perfect person, Meghan is an expert in her field who really connects on multiple levels with both the dog and the owner. Through her work with Gus (my handsome, beautifully tempered, yet overly exuberant male chocolate lab) Meghan was able to transform his wild behavior into a well mannered and highly manageable companion. More importantly, she taught me the importance of my role and responsibilities in training. Both Gus and I learned so much and are having the best time being pals now that we can do so much more together. Thank you Beacon Bay Dog Training-everything is possible now!

When we reached out to Meghan we were at a bit of a loss of how to help our puppy Lucy. She had a bad experience with another dog that left her scared, reactive, and inconsolable when out in the world. After a week with Meghan, Lucy learned the world isn’t such a scary place. Meghan helped to build our dogs confidence helped her learn to be calm and be around other people and dogs. Meghan gave us the foundation to build on to ensure our pup has the best life she can! Now she goes everywhere with us - and we wouldn’t have it any other way!

Meghan is amazing! She really knows her stuff and will give you the tools you need to understand your dog, set boundaries appropriately, and help you to follow through with what you've both learned. I was concerned that maybe at the age of 4 our dog wouldn't be able to learn "new tricks" so to speak but that definitely was not the case. Meghan addressed every issue we talked about in our consultations and also taught us how to teach our dog once he was home. She is so knowledgeable and we have learned so much from her.

ABOUT MEGHAN ROSENSTENGEL!

Being a dog trainer is not just a job I picked up one day—it has been a lifelong passion. From winning the library children’s pet show as a dog-crazy kid to raising future Service Dogs, to training my own dogs to become titled and nationally ranked in performance sports.  Dogs have always been a part of my life.

I have had some challenging dogs along way. These challenges helped me learn how lonely it can be when you have a difficult dog.  You do not have to struggle alone!

I understand how important your dog is to you.  I am here to help you overcome (or prevent!) any behavior challenges, so you and your dog can enjoy more fun times together.
