Apollo

As a first-time dog owner, I was unsure how to train my dog, Apollo. Shante, not only a dog trainer but also a people trainer, taught me how to ensure Apollo listens to me. Now, he can sit, stay, and wait, allowing me to take him more places. She also provided tools to help him understand not to pick up everything on the floor and to do his business on cue, which is helpful on bad weather days. Shante is my trusted dog trainer for life.

Maya

Shante was the second person that Maya met after I adopted her. She felt an instant connection to Shante, and I knew she needed to be a part of Maya's family. Maya was extremely shy and skittish when I first adopted her, but Shante always manages to bring her confidence and focus out. Shante walks Maya twice a week and works with her training for consistency. I can’t say “Shante” in my house, or Maya runs to the door to get her leash. Shante is one of the few people I trust my dog with.

7even

I brought my 9-month-old Frenchie, 7even, to Shanté feeling worried about his poor recall and his aggression toward other dogs. By the end of her program, the transformation was incredible; 7even now excels at walking and recall, and his reactivity has improved tremendously. Beyond the obedience, Shanté provided eye-opening insights into training and nutrition that I never expected but am so grateful for.

To this day, 7even loves visiting Ms. Shanté so much that I can’t get him out of the car fast enough. Watching my dog go from being aggressive to genuinely loving his trainer is the best endorsement I can give. Shanté doesn’t just train dogs; she provides a total lifestyle shift that has changed our lives for the better!
