Mannerly Mongrels

Emily Beltran is certainly one-​of-​a-​kind. She has a genuine compassion for what she does and is excellent at it. Her knowledge of dog behavior, psyche, and individual quirks is uncanny.
My wife and I sought Emily’s help when we adopted a rescued newcomer into our home when we already have two other rescue dogs. Our two other dogs have a very close bond; however, the newcomer was never really socialized her entire life. Needless to say, our home was not the most peaceful or stress-​free, but Emily assured us that she could help our dogs get along.
In a matter of minutes, Emily was able to identify our dog’s antisocial habits and trained my wife and I on how to train our dog. Emily explained how my dog’s mannerisms indicated her emotions when put in certain situations. Honestly, that is what I found the most valuable. Emily explained to us what certain interactions meant in doggy-​world and that our intervention was not always necessary. There were some things the dogs just needed to settle for themselves.
We have only had two sessions with Emily so far and I have seen an incredible improvement in how my dogs all interact with one another. There hasn’t been a scuffle in days and everyone (dogs and parents, included) are all much happier. I greatly look forward to more sessions with her.
