About us

After a life-long love of animals and more than 15 years experience in the pet and veterinary industries , I became a Certified Professional Dog Trainer from the Arizona Canine Academy. Shortly after I began training dogs professionally, it became clear that my client base was comprised of people from every walk of life with dogs as diverse as the owners. Each had their own goals, ideal or issues to work though with their pet. It seemed that no two appointments were the same. It was then I realized a different type of training was needed. A type of training for real life scenarios, delivered in everyday terms that anyone could use. A type of training that people could relate to and remember how to use. The first challenge was to acknowledge that the training was as much, if not more for the human part of the equation than the canine. It became apparent that most people didn’t know the rules of being a dog. That’s right. Dogs have rules too. Just like when people communicate with people, there are certain rules to communicating effectively with dogs. Owner-operated. No subs. Cost determined by the job. Travel charges may apply. No service fees.

He came to tell us what he does and how he trains dogs. We have an aggressive dog and I think WE are the ones that need training!

We were so fortunate to have discovered Shane Wisdom and his wonderful company. From the first call, it was apparent that Shane was direct and pleasant. He came to our house in a prompt and timely fashion and immediately set us at ease. He has a natural understanding of dogs - and people! - which made him a delight to work with. He gave us real, concrete things we could do right away to help our and quot;special needsand quot; dog and we have seen the difference right away. His rates were more than fair and in fact, we ended up spending less than I had expected. I would encourage anyone who wants to better understand their pet to consider working with Shane. He is a delight.

Originally called Shane about getting control over our new adopted dog. He seemed to be very aggressive with other dogs which became a problem during walks. He offered to come to our house to work with the dog but it seemed to be best to go to his 3 week program at Happy Tails. It was a little bit of a drive for us but it was a great experience. The dog (and us) got trained and all of the past aggression is now under control. Dog is happy, we are happy. I highly recommend the program. Shane and his assistant Carrie are terrific.

He was fantastic! Our puppy was very responsive to him and he was excellent with her. Primarily, he teaches owners how to train their puppy or dog (owners are ones w/them all the time... makes sense) and gives you great techniques on how best to work with your dog.

Would highly recommend!!

Shane was amazing. The dogs were instantly calm when he came in, and he taught us how to help them remain calm for the majority of the time. By the end of the first day, the dogs were already doing better than they've ever done before. It took a little longer for our dog to stop growling at our baby, but within a week or so, that had stopped as well. We are truly impressed with him - he did an amazing job. I recommend him to everyone!!

Shane had my dog doing things I couldn't get him to do within an hour. My dog is so much better. He is coming back again.

The contact name for this company is Shane Wisdom. Shane was very pleasant to work with. He maintained a very good relationship. He was able to help us to learn everything about our family dog. He was great.
