We brought in our high energy dog for training and Jocelyn really took the time to understand his temperament and personality to find what would work for him. She really focused on building a more sustainable, reward based training methodology for our dog. She was also very approachable and helpful in showing us how to communicate effectively with him, including important verbal and physical cues as well as timing. She also recommended specific exercises to further develop our at home training strategy. We did the 10 day pac... read more

We came home with a rescue pup in July- he was said to be a lab mix and there probably is some lab, but Jax is more like the guard dog/hunting dog we were not expecting! We are head over heels in love with him but he needed some serious manners! Jocelyn worked with him for 2 weeks and the difference has been astounding! Jax is using his manners daily! We have also learned how to train him at home and responds well to us! Jocelyn is incredible in her craft!! 

Business response:

Thank you for your wonderful review, Kim! We're so glad to hear that Jax is doing well and that you're seeing such a positive difference in his behavior, we are noticing it in daycare as well! Jocelyn is truly amazing at what she does, and we're thrilled that she was able to help you and Jax. We're here to support you and Jax every step of the way!

We took our dog Roscoe to Barking Dog to see Jocelyn for training. Roscoe is a little mutt we adopted when he was 5. He'd been a stray and it was evident that he'd experienced trauma in the past and had developed some coping mechanisms that weren't serving him anymore. Jocelyn got him to love wearing his muzzle. He seriously wags his tail and gets so excited when he sees it. She helped him with his confidence around other dogs as well as ways we could help him. And she found a way to clean his ears that he will tolerat... read more

Hello Meredith, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience at The Barking Dog Hooksett. We are thrilled to hear that Jocelyn was able to make a positive impact on Roscoe's behavior and happiness. It's wonderful to know that Jocelyn was able to help Roscoe overcome his past trauma and develop better coping mechanisms. We're glad that he now enjoys wearing his muzzle and has gained confidence around other dogs. The fact that he tolerates ear cleaning without sedation is a great accomplishment! We truly a... read more

Ranger has been training at The Barking Dog for the last two weeks and it is amazing how far he has come with Jocelyn. She is so nice and helpful and we loved the daily email updates on his progress. I also recommend The Barking Dog for puppy day care! Ranger gets so excited when he pull up and is happily tired at the end of the day. The staff is welcoming and friendly and you really get the feeling they care about your pet. Ranger got groomed for the first time here too - one stop shopping. haha I am actually a little sad o... read more

My dog Drax (the destroyer) has been training with Jocelyn Guillemette for a few months and is doing fantastic. His impulse control and many other behaviors have improved muchly. It is super convenient as she can just grab him while he is there for daycare and the price point is competitive. Thanks to Jocelyn and all the Barking Dog Staff for taking great care of my best bud! 

Business response:

Thank you for your kind compliments, Amanda! We love visits from you and your family and appreciate you trusting us with your pet's care. We look forward to seeing you and Drax again soon!

Our rescue loves day care at the Barking Dog--he cries the whole way home. He really adores Jocelyn, whose training was immediately effective. Improvement in days. She is very intuitive and really gets to know your dog's personality and tendencies. She does a great job training the humans too! Very professional all around.  

Business response:

Thank you for your generous feedback, Rich! Our team looks forward to seeing you and Celly again soon.

Thank goodness for great dog trainers! Jocelyn Guillemette has been working with our 1 year old Shih Tzu, Coco, for 3 weeks and we've seen an incredible improvement already. Jocelyn is just wonderful - she really helps us to understand how to communicate what's appropriate and what's not in a fun and informative way. We love her and so does Coco!

Thank you for your kind compliments, Robin! We love visits from you and your family and appreciate you trusting us with your pet’s care.
