"I have a 2 year old blue nose pit. I love this dog, but could not handle him any longer. After spending hundreds and hundreds on trainers and training tools I was at my end. My dog had become out of control. I could no longer have people over or enjoy my dog. I found Clever Canine online and in one last desperate attempt I reached out. I can honestly say I am simply amazed at the transformation in my dog. The education my dog and I have received has far exceeded my expectations. I have worked with Mandy and Steve whom have been excellent in teaching me what I’ve been doing wrong and right. They have taken every step to make sure we are comfortable, and confident in what we are doing. I can now walk my dog next to me (rather than him walking me) I can call him to me, I can even settle him down. I am able to bring people over once again."

"My Goldendoodle Harper was enrolled in the 2 weeks board and train program to fine tune some issues. After the completion of the program, we could see a noticeable difference with her. During the "transition" back into our home, the staff at Clever Canine explained and showed us the way to work with our newly trained pet. They definitely​ take pride in what they do and I feel they go out of their way to make sure the customer is satisfied. I highly recommend this company."

"After only two lessons, my dogs and I have already learned so much! I am so excited to see such positive changes in my dogs' behavior so quickly. ​I highly recommend Clever Canine for any type of training needed!"

"Clever Canine Dog Training taught us how to make huge changes in our German Shepherd’s behavior. I honestly had my doubts that she would ever be able to go for a walk with us, stop barking at strangers, or basically listen to us in general – but they proved me wrong. ​We are enjoying her so much more now, and everyone can tell that she is happier too. I am still amazed every day at the changes I see in her. Clever Canine gave us the control that I never thought we would have. We got our life back and we are now very proud parents–best money I ever spent!!!"

"I brought my 11 month Mountain Cur/Labrador for custom training. We live on a big property and I’m not a spring chicken and I really needed to be able to train Lacy to carry things for me. Clever Canine was the only place willing to work with my custom request. Lacy and I have learned so much during the great in 8 sessions. I’m so happy I am going there. I started with Mandy and she taught me all about the obedience training and the wonderful E-Collar. Mandy said if you can get your dog to do recall, you got it. Before we brought Lacy there she would not come when called, not even in the house. Now that I’ve been taught on how to train her, she has surpassed the E-Collar and will come when called from inside or outside without even wearing the collar! It’s so amazing. She walks without pulling on the leash. She understands at least 10 different commands and enjoys training. Lizzy helped so much with the beginning of the custom retrieving parts. I learned a lot from her and then she brought Steve into the picture to do the very specific training I needed because he loves training hunting dogs. So its all been fitting together really well. I highly recommend Clever Canine. Even though at first it felt like the price was too much, they worked with me and I have a real easy payment plan. Now I realize for the level of training that I am asking for its so worth it. If you want real friendly people, great trainers and someone to customize what you really need they will work with you. Top Notch people!"

" I’m currently in week 4 with my pit bull terrier mix. It’s just one on one and we opted not to go part of the group class. The training aspect is very thorough. My trainer has shown me possibilities (I.e. prong collar) , how to safely use it and then I decided if I wanted to continue with it. They give you the training really more so than the dog. They teach you with your dog and then we reinforce during the week until going back for the next session. I have seen results and we are only half way through. They offer payment plans which was also a positive for me. The only concern I’ve had is because they are still so new they’re still working through front office type stuff. The issues I have had were quickly addressed and satisfactory resolution provided. Its def worth at least having the conversation at a free discovery session."

Great Dog in 8 Weeks Frequently Asked Questions
Several years ago we came together as a team of trainers and wrote down EVERY dog problem we'd dealt with and helped to fix over our decades of training dogs.
We brainstormed everything from the smaller problems like leash pulling, jumping, digging, and house training all the way up to bigger stuff like chewing, dog aggression, people aggression, animal aggression, anxiety, separation anxiety, and everything in between.
We then wrote down and brainstormed EVERY technique and method we'd used to fix those problems.
We found about an 80% overlap...meaning, fixing the smaller problems and the bigger problems had about 80% of the same training techniques being done.
We then realized that we could build in those elements as well as the other 20% needed to fix just about ANY dog problem into a 60 day time span.
We started testing it and we found that we can help over 98% of dogs overcome just about any issue in 60 days or less.
The last 2% tend to need just a LITTLE bit more.
Just about. As a team we've worked with thousands of dogs from all over the globe. And in working with thousands of dogs we've found a few that didn't make the predicted progress.
Every time we've seen this happen we've later found out certain health issues like brain tumors or thyroid problems that weren't allowing the dog to progress in their training.
Other than that, though, we've put over 100 breeds from ages of 4 months all the way to 11 years through this program. Every dog has seen dramatic improvement provided they had an owner who practiced the techniques.
We don't claim to be the only ones who know how to train dogs. Other trainers can also do fantastic things.
So the question is, did you follow through with the other trainer?
If the answer is yes, and you still don't have results, we have a long track record of using the Great Dog in 8 Weeks program to get results where other trainers can't.
In fact, I believe we may be the only training company confident enough in our program to guarantee your results.
Our Great Dog in 8 Weeks program makes us very unique versus other trainers. Our guarantee backs that up. And our customer service is designed to make you glad you chose to work with us over other dog trainers.
I'll be honest. We aren't cheap. We are definitely one of the more expensive in Michigan.
But there's a reason we are as well as the busiest with 9 full time trainers as of this writing.
We get results that others can't. We do it more predictably. We get those results faster. And the system makes it easier on the dog and easier on the person.
We've finely tuned this system so that any dog with any problem with any owner can see dramatic behavior improvements in 8 weeks as well as maintaining those changes long term.
We back our system with a lifetime guarantee.
