We had always wanted to add a Great Dane to our family because of its regal and calm demeanor, but quickly came to find that was not the case with our 13-month-old, Osler. We did puppy obedience classes, and consistent at-home training and still couldn’t manage his reactivity around other dogs. Leash walking him was a nightmare, and he would lunge, bark, and try and rush to greet other dogs constantly – which, as a 130lb (and growing) pup, was getting out of hand very quickly.

I found Mango Dogs through a Google search and reached out to them the same evening. It was the best decision we’ve ever made. Even during the initial in-person consultation with Ted, he had Osler completely listening and obeying him. We didn’t recognize our dog! Our trainer, Taylor, came to our house for a one-hour training session every weekend and gave us all the tools we needed to redirect unwanted behaviours.

Walking Osler is so enjoyable now, and he knows exactly what is expected of him. We’re looking forward to many adventures with him now knowing that we have complete control over any situation. We’re so grateful for Mango Dogs and the professional, personalized training they offered.  Osler is doing awesome and we just got a new Dane puppy!
