Challenging Dog?

In-Home Dog Training For Lansing Dog Guardains

Private 1:1 coaching in the comfort of your home.

Level up your dog’s skills, confidence, and find lasting behavior change—all through the power of games and force-free training.

And if this sounds like you...

  • Your dog uncontrollably jumps on guests or barks the second you sit down.

  • They pull and lunge on walks at the first sight of another dog, a squirrel, a leaf blowing by, or the neighbor across the street.

  • You’ve watched the videos, bought the treats, maybe even tried a class—but your dog is still running the show.

  • You just want to relax, welcome visitors, and enjoy everyday life with your dog

You’re not alone; you're just raising a dog— and there’s a better way forward.

Where Dogs Go To Raise The Woof!

We raise a calm and confident dog through the power of games—because learning works best when it’s fun.

That’s how we create lasting behavior change for dogs and their people!

Frustrating behaviors in dogs often arise from boredom, excess energy, pain or fear. Our training methods focus on gradual exposure through game-based learning and positive reinforcement to encourage more desirable behaviors.

We specialize in addressing everyday normal dog struggles like fear, sound sensitivity, and leash reactivity, helping dogs become more confident and comfortable in their surroundings.

TESTIMONIALS

What others are saying

Mandy was so great to work with!

"We are first-time puppy parents and had no clue where to start with Max's training, but knew we wanted to stick with reward-based, force-free training. On top of general obedience skills, reactivity prevention training, as well as potty training. Everyone always comments on how well behaved Max is, and we have Raise The Woof to thank!"

- Courtney I.

I had a wonderful experience with Mandy as my dog trainer.

"She was so encouraging, insightful and outgoing. I was able to teach my dog many new tricks, connect with my dog, and my dog had the time of his life all due to Mandy's support and skills. Thank you so much Mandy!"

- Andrea P.

Mandy has done a great job training me how to train my dog!

"My dog loves the training but it is me who needs most of the work! Very kind and energetic which helps motivate us both! Thanks so much!"

- Mark C.
