Manners Please Canine Training

So grateful to have met Stacie at a local doggie park. We’ve adopted 2 hyper, funny Boston Terriers, 3 years and 10 months old, and of course lots of laugh and games but we needed HELP! With boundaries, they were the walking terrors of our neighborhood as cute as they are and through Stacie’s gentle and effective, fabulous training, Athena and Amor are pretty much under control. Her great ideas work every time and FAST, and with our busy lives fast is great. Now they’re calmer, Athena doesn’t bark unnecessarily, and they’re learning their SPOT on the couch, not all over the place. When we are in control they feel calmer too, which has helped with house training too. Thank you Stacie!!! You’re awesome! See you next week!

Earlier this year I adopted my very first furry friend ever, needless to say it’s been a bit of a challenge. While I managed to teach the Little guy a few things I knew we needed help, I researched several trainers in the L.A. area and stumbled onto Manner Please. After reading Stacie’s bio and learning she became a trainer to follow her passion I knew she was the trainers for us.
Stacie has by far exceeded any of the expectations I had, she is so down to earth. The moment you meet her it feels like you’ve known her your entire life. She is super understanding of my situation (me having NO idea what I was doing) and makes sure everything she is showing me makes complete sense. My Little Guy LOVES her. He’s a rambunctious creature yet somehow she can get him to listen, something I still have to work on… A LOT.
Understanding my Little Guy is tough but with Stacie’s help every step of the way I know we’ll get there =)

I bought the 3 training session deal on Living Social. It was great having Stacie and Steve come to our house for the 1-​on-​1 training.
Stacie is fantastic, she’s patient, kind and incredibly knowledgeable. Buster can be quite a handful as he’s a chihuahua with a short attention span but Stacie still manages to get through to him. We’ve learned how to take the tools she taught us to train Buster to be a more perfect dog/​member of our family. I would highly recommend Manners Please Canine Training.

We first met Stacie through a training school a few years ago and kept signing up for the next level courses. Stacie is so patient, friendly and has such a great, natural bond with dogs. She taught us so much about dog behavior and gave us so many good pointers that help us to this day. We went away on vacation, we left our dogs with Stacie. We got daily reports and felt so reassured they were being loved and getting great care. We send anyone with a dog strait to Stacie! She is magic!

Stacie is absolutely terrific. Cooper has learned all the basics and he is on his way to becoming a therapy dog — this is all because of Stacie. Believe it or not, Stacie has even taught Cooper how to recognize different toys!!! Incredible. She is patient and caring and you simply could not ask for more from a trainer. Thanks

Had a great experience with Manners Please! She trained me how to curb my dog’s barking problem and helped us understand each other :)

Saw a difference in our puppy after just one session — can’t wait for the rest. Our dog Bean’s puppy biting is pretty much gone, she’s off the couch (had been scratching it) and my kids are doing great with our new puppy (Stacie taught the kids how to train the pup). I love the personal attention and her getting everyone involved — would definitely recommend Manners Please training with Stacie!!!

I was skeptical that my 7 year old dog who has never had any sort of training could learn to listen and follow commands. But after he bit my girlfriend a few times when she moved in, we decided he absolutely had to get some training.
Stacie came to our house weekly for three weeks. And the difference is amazing. He’s like an entirely new dog. We still work with him everyday using the tools and practice methods she have us, and now my little guy is acting more like a gentleman than a crazy ball of energy.
I wish there were more than five stars to give!

Stacie is an outstanding trainer and is truly dedicated and compassionate. She teaches and trains using only positive reward systems by diagnosing and designing interventions that are original and fun. I have worked with Stacie with my Labradoodle puppy for over a year. The goal was for our dog to become a certified Pet Partners Therapy Dog which she achieved with outstanding ratings. The test consists if over 20 skills that are reviewed by examiners. I highly recommend her to anyone!
