Pasadena Pet Parents Love Us

“I can’t praise Good Dog Spot enough. Lily and Quinn were fantastic. We attended the 6 week course for Basic Manners. This group class was exactly what we needed. Our almost 2 year old American Bully knows a lot of basic cues but has a hard time performing them with distractions. In the first class, we had an orientation which really helped us prepare and eased some of my own anxieties. The second class we brought our dogs. Bumi was pretty nervous/anxious – which we did not anticipate, but Lily and Quinn were really understanding and kind. They gave us tips and worked with us to make Bumi more comfortable each class. Every week he got better and better. It was amazing to see his progress. In the home and on walks, Bumi seems more confident and it has grown our relationship with him. We are so thankful for the effort, empathy, and expertise that was shown by Lily and Quinn. I would highly recommend working with them.”

“Lily is WONDERFUL A true “Dog Whisperer” we didn’t even recognize our dog when she first arrived as he automatically followed all her commands. She has shown us our bad habits (not our dog’s) and how to build up to the difficult parts (like control out in the wilderness). Lily is gifted, flexible, and affordable and we highly recommend her “Puppy Package” is it worked great for us! Thanks so much Lily!”

VIKTOR, B

“We recently adopted a 3 y/o pit and shepherd mix and wanted to do our best to get her trained with basic manners, loose leash walking, etc, AND we were looking for positive reinforcement training (no prong or e collars). I am SO glad we found Lily. She came to our home and trained our pup and us. She gives us real time feedback (even if we send her videos of us training when she’s not there), models the training with high value treats, emails suggestions, and is super easy to book and contact online. Additionally, our dog Violet absolutely adores her.

Our most recent example is that we couldn’t get her into her bagel bed, she wouldn’t stay or sleep in it. 2 ish days after Lily has come, it’s now become her favorite spot in the living room. (See photo:))

I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Lily!”
