The trainers are knowledgeable and nice. Easy to ask questions and get detailed answers.
I had worked with a previous trainer, He believed in prong collars& the result of that is my dog grew, prong collar did not& he needed surgery on his neck, I was Instinct recommended by our Vet, I met Maggie our trainer at the uptown locale, She is sensational. he needed to learn to walk gently on the leash& to know the loud noises would not hurt him, Maggie ws wonderful with him but really with me, She recommended I did the work following her example, Zane got excited when we walked into the facility& loves her& his experie... read more
We are thrilled with our experience at Instinct. Casey (and all the staff) really got to know our pup, Ernie, and he learned a lot in his two weeks at camp. He now walks nicely on a leash, checks in with us regularly on and off leash and comes when called, even when he is distracted. We love Instinct's positive reinforcement approach and found the follow-up visits and exercises easy to understand and uphold. Our dog has some issues with his back legs and the entire team at Instinct kept a close eye on him and modified his pl... read more
5 stars Our trainer, Sarah Dixon, was reliable, gentle but firm, and was incredibly helpful in training our dog. We would whole-heartedly recommend her to anyone needing guidance with their beloved dog’s behavior. We are 100% satisfied with our experience. -Kim and Gwen
My rescue worked with/called Sarah Dixon for some of the harder cases we have in our program and despite myself and other volunteers being in the dog training field,we were looking for outside guidance from another professional. Sarah was amazingly kind and compassionate. She understood the difficulties we were struggling with as a rescue with dogs with serious behavioral issues. She was honest and knowledgeable and helped us tremendously. Seeing a lot of dog trainers reverting back to aversive training methods is disheart... read more
From our initial consultation with Trina, the owner of the NYC location, to every visit we've had with our wonderful trainer, Sarah D., we've had such a fantastic experience with Instinct. After trying a different training company we didn't quite vibe with, we did some more research and saw Instinct's glowing reviews--and it has definitely been worth the investment. They care deeply about making sure you have the tools to succeed and they've gone out of their way to check-in about our dog. Our dog has some severe people-anx... read more
We worked with Maggie Withum and she was terrific! She took the time to understand what I was struggling with and she was committed to helping me reach my goals. She gave me manageable reasonable suggestions and helped Rosie and I to be successful! She was also AMAZING with Rosie and really appreciated her and all her quirks! I would strongly recommend Maggie! She has made a huge difference for me and Rosie!
We could not be happier with the results we now see after training with Sarah Dixon. Our rescue, Marley, was always lovable but very anxious and nervous around other dogs and new people. After only a few training sessions Sarah had him on track! We did the homework and it really worked. She not only trained Marley, but she also trained us! We had never owned a rescue before and we learned so much. So many little things you can do to make your and your pup's life easier! Thank you Sarah!😀😀😀
My husband and I had the pleasure of partnering with Sarah from Instinct Behavior to train our puppy. She started by attending puppy training camp. Sarah is a dog whisperer and has the patience of a saint. She is so dedicated to our pup, Sophie, that she has essentially become a part of our family! We are continuing to work with Sarah and the instinct team. Words can’t express our satisfaction and gratitude for Sarah and Instinct Behavior.
