Dog Sitting in Windham Manor

Alana is the best of the BEST. She completely changed our family’s life! We adopted our German Shepherd/ Husky mix when she was 4 years old. She came to us with many quirks. She had Velcro dog tendencies, hated car rides, stole food off the counters, and was known to escape a time or two. After spending 3 weeks at Wolf Moon Dogs, she came back a completely different dog! Everyone told us that she would be a spicy mix because of her two breeds, but after the board and train program with Alana, she had transformed into a calm and well balanced dog. Alana got to know us and our lifestyle and tailored our training program to fit our needs. NO other trainer was willing to do this, and we had looked at many different options before landing on Wolf Moon Dogs. We can now travel with our best friend, play with her and our young children without fear of her hurting them, confidently off leash her, and keep her in a calm state of mind inside and outside of our home. Alana is an expert in her field, and we will definitely be repeat customers in the future when we are ready to grow our pack! Thanks Wolf Moon Dog 🖤

Where do I start. Alana is amazing! Our 8 month old Labrador absolutely loves her. Prior to bringing our furry little girl to Alana, we were having issues with her controlling every aspect of her life and ours. Luckily we found Alana with Wolf Moon Dogs and oh my goodness, what a difference. After her three week training course, we are now in total control which I never though was possible. Alana knows dogs! The care she provides along with the training is remarkable. We will never take our little girl anywhere else for any type of training or boarding. We found our girls second home. We highly recommend Wolf Moon Dogs and Alana. You will not be disappointed! We love her and so does our girl.

I attended Alana's first shadow weekend. I own four dogs, love dogs and enjoy dog training and follow Alana on social media. I've always loved Alana's expert advice on improving my relationship with my dog and improving the dogs state of mind to work toward having a balanced dog/pack. The shadow weekend was the perfect opportunity to learn Alana's techniques for loose leash walking, multiple dog household management techniques, and techniques to work with each of my dogs issues from anxiety to resource guarding, and nail trims. I came away from the weekend with tons of great advice to implement within my pack. After one week of making Alana's suggested changes with each dog, we have made a good deal of success working on true loose leash walking. I cannot relay how elated I am to be able to walk my dogs like Alana walks her training dogs. There is nothing more enjoyable than walking a calm dog that that stays right by your side in a relaxed state of mind. Alana also offers the opportunity to get a tattoo from Choptank Tattoo in Cambridge, which was so fun, and we were able to enjoy fun meals out, and I enjoyed a sound bath during my shadow weekend. It was great to work with the training and boarding dogs that were there while on my shadow weekend. I learned so much over the course of three days on my shadow weekend and highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to improve their relationship with their dogs! Alana is an amazing dog trainer and I'm so grateful for the fun times and wisdom she shared throughout the weekend.

We are so incredibly happy to have had the opportunity for our dog to train with Wolf Moon Dogs. Alana created a solid foundation and major change of mental wellbeing within our dog and our household. We went from chaos and blowing off recall, to off-leash adventures with amazing recall, calmness in the home and elimination of resource guarding with our other dogs in the family. We’ve already decided that any future canine family members will be training with WMD! This is a worthwhile investment for everyone involved. We are so grateful for Alana and her support.

Board and train with Wolf Moon Dogs is a great investment! I appreciated Alana’s regular updates on Instagram and the videos she sent demonstrating appropriate play behavior, a specific concern of mine. Alana answered allll my questions and more. She made progress with Rico where I kept getting stuck. While Rico was generally calm and listened inside, outside was a different story. Walks are so much more enjoyable now, and we are well on our way to off leash adventures!

I’m a dog trainer in Pennsylvania and recently got to spend a few days shadowing Alana and I’m so grateful for the opportunity. Alana is such a talented trainer and generous with her knowledge. We covered so many topics and she was willing to answer all of my questions. We have differing training styles and I really appreciate that Alana was never condescending to me while explaining her methods and why she uses them and how they benefitted her and her clients dogs, the results speak for themselves! The dogs are happy, healthy, and balanced. Anyone who gets the opportunity to meet with and work with Alana should consider themselves lucky!

I cannot even adequately put into words how amazing this program is. We adopted a deaf Pittie/hound mix from Worcester County Humane Society who had been the shelter for over 3 years. Alana took him in for her board and train program and totally transformed this unruly boy. He was so anxious and amped up when we first met him. When he finished, he was a different dog. Things have only gotten better. Alana’s training focuses on the dog’s mindset which is unique and impactful. Her patience and guidance is unparalleled. She provides a wealth of information not only for training, but also health and food. Follow her on Instagram to get all the benefits. Bandit is always so happy when we go back to board him with Alana. It’s a safe, happy place for him.

Alana did an amazing job training Josie. I'd tried every training technique, and several trainers, over the years. Josie came a long way. However, I got to the point that once she got her treat or praise, she moved on to do things her own way. I couldn't get consistent good behavior from her. As she got bigger (60+ lbs) misbehaving got harder for me to manage. Alana's techniques and the use of the e-Collar have radically changed Josie for the better. She's been home for almost a month now. We walk 3 miles a day (urban, distraction-heavy miles) and she's attached to my side and relaxed the whole time. I might need to do a correction maybe once or twice during that walk. We did our first woodsy hike off leash this weekend and I got 100% recall from her! I'm over the moon (pun intended :) I can't recommend Alana and Wolf Moon Dogs enough.

Alana is the BEST in the business! She has helped with our German Shepherd, Goose, for the last 5 years! Goose is very dog selective, Alana has helped us work through his dog reactivity! No one I trust more to watch him than her. He LOVES going to her house. She is very kind and compassionate, as well as extremely knowledgeable. Her training is specific to each dog & family, not a “one-size-fits-all” package. Her goal is for everyone in the family to be successful, most importantly your pup!! If you have been considering training for your dog, look no further, Alana’s programs are well worth the investment!! Goose’s life & mine are so much better with Alana in it!

Wolf Moon Dogs training experience has transformed my two pit/lab mix dogs Red(F) & Inky(M) (who are also littermates) and made space for a peaceful household. The owner Alana provides an incredible foundation to "reset" your relationship with your dog through her Board and Train services. I had previously worked hard with my dogs but without the understanding I needed to gain any forward momentum. Through this program you are educated on how to best support your dog on a holistic level. You are provided with Alana's expertise in dog behavior, achieving the right mindset, boundaries, nutrition, and so much more. The focus is on progress not perfection, because anything good takes time! If you are feeling hopeless and circling through the same issues with your dog I highly recommend you contact Alana at Wolf Moon Dogs.
