  Marnie is extremely knowledgeable on dog behavior and how our behavior influences them. We saw great improvement in just five weeks.

  When I got my new French bull dog pup, he had already lived in 3 different homes! He had been through the stress of so much change. I was so worried that it was going to take forever for him to trust me! Then I found Mehak with sensible canine. Her focus is always on positive reinforcement, enrichment, patience, and kindness. With this, I saw an immediate improvement on my dog’s anxiety level and attention. We loved working with Mehak. Her sessions were always very individualized to our needs and after each session she always gave us tons of great training exercises and resources. Highly recommend!

  Mehak gave such great insights into why my dog was behaving the way he was and then giving advice/tips on how to correct it! The team at Sensible Canine are so knowledgeable in dog behavior. Really enjoyed working with Mehak!!

  We were nearly at our wits' end with our rescues being reactive on walks - I'm so glad we found Mehak and Sensible Canine! Over our 7 sessions, Mehak really helped us with strategies to redirect the dogs, de-escalate stressful situations, and overall improve everyone's experience while out and about. I particularly appreciated that she came to our home, where the dogs felt most comfortable, and that we could practice on our normal walking routes. It was clear that she really cared about our dogs as individuals, and they loved her too (and not just because of the waist pack full of treats!). A bonus for multi-dog households: their rates are the same whether you're working with one pet or two. We would highly recommend Mehak and Sensible Canine!!

  Marni was wonderful in helping us work with our dog in prep for baby! She was patient (with our pup and us ;) ) and was flexible in terms of her approach and the logistics for our sessions which was much needed during pregnancy. Highly recommend working with Marni and appreciate her working with us and meeting us where we were at during each session,

  We had a wonderful experience working with Marnie! It takes lots of hard work, but Marnie is so patient and the dogs loved her vibe and energy. I feel confident that if more questions or concerns come up for our dogs we would reach out to Sensible Canine.

  We love Sensible Canine! Mehak Greenberg was wonderful with our very spirited puppy and we learned so much that the whole family can implement. I loved the small, intimate group classes that allowed for more personalized support and the follow up notes were always so helpful to reinforce what we learned. We're really benefited from leash training, recall techniques, and use of rewards. Thank you, Sensible Canine. Highly recommend!

  I brought my pup in for sensible skills training - the basics for younger dogs. We both really enjoyed the training - towards the end my dog was excited Sunday mornings knowing we were headed to training. The facility is clean and has lots of space. He learned the basics of sit, down, stay, leave it, "calm" greetings, and loose leash walking. You also get a handout after every class with tips to make it easier to practice each week. Mehak is a great trainer and enjoyed working with her. Thanks!
