Testimonials

“I took my 10-week-old Bernedoodle puppy, Roux, to spend two weeks with Wesley at Good DaweG for a board-and-train, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience… She’s even been teaching her big sister, Winnie, some of the good habits she picked up from Wesley! I’ll be taking both of my dogs back to him once the youngest is six months old for obedience training.”
– Client

“We are very pleased with the results of the Good DaweG three-week board and train program… Wesley took Gracey out to public parks and Home Depot. That was invaluable… We can’t recommend Good DaweG enough!”
– Client

“Wesley was absolutely phenomenal! He helped our Vizsla, Ingo, not just behave better, but truly thrive… We recommend him 1000%–he’s truly the best of the best!”

About the Trainer

Good DaweG is a dog training business based in Houston, TX, founded by Wesley Dawe, who has over 20 years of hands-on experience training dogs. The business focuses on building strong, cohesive relationships between dogs and their owners through a balanced training approach that combines positive reinforcement with constructive discipline. Services include in-home private lessons, day training, virtual training, and board-and-train programs lasting 2.5 or 3 weeks. Wesley trains dogs in his home facility, which features a large yard, and takes dogs to real-world environments like parks and Home Depot to build confidence and obedience. He also provides ongoing owner education to ensure training is maintained at home. Good DaweG works with dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, including rescues and reactive dogs, and emphasizes patience, individualized attention, and trust-building.

The team avoids harsh punishment-based techniques, focusing instead on reducing anxiety and improving behavior through positive, consistent methods.

Additional services include free meet-and-greets, weekly private follow-up lessons, and educational resources for dog owners. Good DaweG does not offer grooming, boarding, walking, or pet retail services beyond training.
