Testimonials
“The training has been so helpful not only for the dog but more for me. It has given me the tools to work with my dog on my own with the confidence that I am doing something right. Dog ownership is the greatest fun but also a huge responsibility. Inna offers a service that is affordable and above all effective. It has been a pleasure and I will refer her out to anyone who is looking to do training on their own.”
– Anthony Hayes
“Deuce, 2 yr. old Pitbull/Boxer Mix Inna has been a life saver for us. I mean that literally. Deuce was once a fearful, unpredictable dog that was one bite away from being put down. After working with Inna, we’ve been able to steer Deuce’s behavior in the right direction. Right from the get go, Inna was genuinely invested in helping us. She made herself available to us and really got to understand our dog’s problems and personality. Now, we have the right strategy and techniques to ensure Deuce will have a long, happy life. Thanks Inna!”
– Nicole Navitsky & Matt Kelly
“I don’t know where we would be without Inna and Wag the Dog. Her one-on-one training as well as her Reactive Dog Class have been extremely helpful for us and our nervous mini-schnauzer. We have seen positive results with just one private lesson and her 6 day course, both of which were affordable and fun! … I highly recommend her one-on-one training and her Reactive Dog Class!”
– Robin R. Queens
