I met Susan through a mutual friend. I was looking for a new home for my boy Charlie, a decision I did not take lightly. Though he was an awesome dog, he needed some fine tuning and as a single Mom I simply didn’t have the time or the tools and knew he deserved better. Fast forward to a conversation with Susan- I knew Charlie was a brilliant dog and he was my kid my boy I just didn’t have the tools to get him to where I would trust he wasn’t going to plow my child over when he got so excited in the back yard or getting him to relax when someone new came into my house. Susan took the time and explained to me why he was doing what he was doing and how with little corrections he could be the Charlie Brown I knew he could be. I decided to move in a different direction and instead of finding him a new home I sent him up for training. After having him for a week I heard was “this is the best dog”. I got pictures of him in home depot and on hikes and I knew I made the right decision for him and my family. Upon completion of his time with Susan, she brought him back to me and worked with he and I one on one until I was comfortable with what he had learned. I have a completely different dog. I won’t lie and say he’s 100% but I know that with the tools she has given both him and me that he will be. I know that any slip-ups aren’t from him not knowing, but me not going back to his training. He comes to my work, lays around in my office and when people come in he sits and loves getting petted. Sending Charlie to Susan really was the best decision and I would recommend her and her training in a heartbeat!

Why Susan? Because she truly cares! We had her work on our female German Shepherd pup when she was around 11 months old, this dog was a maniac in a silly way. Susan had her for two weeks and we were amazed by the dog we got back !!! Dakota is 2 1/2 now and we love to take her out and show off how well behaved she is. People stop us all the time just to say ‘they can’t believe how well behaved she is. We just got our second GS from Susan and Dexter is amazing. Best trainer “Ever” and she’s always there for you!

After much searching, I was so happy to come across Susan Miley’s dog training facility for our Border collie Puppy. At 4 months he had already become difficult to walk because of his fascination with cars. I searched online and was confronted again and again with the understanding that this was a behavior that professionals were best equipped to deal with, and the younger the better.

We sent our puppy, Arlo, to spend 5 days training with Susan. When she returned him to our home, she taught us everything she had worked on with him. He is still a squirrelly puppy, but he can be walked along the side of a road or highway without pulling at cars. He will sit and watch cars without anxiety. Our job is following through on everything that Susan started, and she set us up very well to do just that.

We are so grateful we found S. Miley Dog Training and Rehabilitation. I have already recommended Susan to several friends and will continue to do so, since she is truly wonderful with the dogs and their owners.

Max knows there is a little chihuahua mix at the site next to ours. He is being so good in an extended down in his open kennel while we play ladder ball even though the dog is barking at us. What a good dog!

She’s been laying like this for a while now and we could never get her to just relax before lol, I have a perfect dog now. Thank you Susan for everything, you too are a miracle worker, we see such a huge difference in Dakota “wow” we loved her when she was a maniac but now we love and enjoy her so much more now that she knows it’s ok to calm down . Thank you again and we will keep working on the wonderful things you’ve thought her.

Before I could not walk my dogs all together and getting them in and out of the truck for hikes was insanity. Now, my dogs calmly enter the truck and quietly exit. I can walk all 3 at once!
