See what people are saying about Bark to Basics:

"My experience with Melissa as a trainer for my newly adopted pound puppy was a wonderful one. Melissa's greatest strength is her patience and true love for dogs. My dog, Butters, is very stubborn and has some fears (ceiling fans!) and Melissa was so kind and did not hurry him but worked with him until progress was made. She is also very good with dog owners who usually need more training then the dogs. She really works with you until you know how to get your dog to respond and become a great, well behaved citizen. I can't wait to enroll Butters in more training with Melissa."

- Mary with Butters, Garden Grove


"We thoroughly enjoyed (our training experience) and learned a lot. Our dogs responded very well to the training method and they love the trainer. The progress with our 7 month old Alaskan Malamute puppy was excellent and we continue to use the methods we learned."

-Karen and Owen with Thunder and Dancer, Seal Beach


"This training has definitely improved our relationship with our dog, Jag. We were losing hope that anyone could help us work through problem areas - in a positive way. Thank you for everything."

- Christine with Jag, Santa Ana


"Chacho has shown very good behavior after training with Melissa. He now sits, behaves on daily walks and stays when told. Thank you so much."

-Jessica with Chacho, Orange
