I was introduced to Wicked Smart through Wareham Pack Walkers. Our mixed breed rescue, Pete, went from a 12 pound baby to a very strong 80 pound PULLER! Training with Jenny has allowed us to enjoy walks without pulling. And I’ve learned so much more than that! We can bring Pete almost anywhere and always receive compliments on what a good boy he is. In October, we met a 1.5yr old rescue dog who needed a family. We fell in love with her, but  she had had a tough life so far and I had concerns. I reached out to Jenny before taking any action. She asked great questions and answered tons of mine. As soon as we got Bernie home we made an appointment for a private class and it was hugely helpful. I can’t say enough about Wicked Smart Dogs. Jenny is so knowledgeable, kind, generous and FUN. There is no reason not to get involved with Wicked Smart Dogs - I am SO GLAD that we did!!

When we got our lab as a puppy, we had no idea where to start our training. Jenny got us on the right track! From leash walking to helping us introduce him to our older dog, she was there with us all the way. Couldn’t have managed without her. Now George (our lab) is a well behaved and happy member of our family.

Bea was a rescue from Puerto Rico and was approximately 4 or 5 years old, her first years of life are a bit vague, but they believed she came from a hoarding situation.  We had no idea what her temperament was like and how to introduce her to a new life. We discovered the Pack Walkers, it was a wonderful and supported environment, especially working with Jenny, she is so insightful in dog behavior and training and takes an individual approach for each dog. Bea 

 quickly gain confidence and eventually earned her K9 Good Citizen certificate and entered the Therapy dog Training. Here’s a pic of the therapy dogs in action under Jenny supervision at the kindness for kids Xmas party.

Finding Jenny and her community was the best thing we ever did for our pup! I will never forget the first group class we went to and I was so overwhelmed and embarrassed. Within a short time my pup learned over 20 commands and got her Star Puppy award! With ongoing training she has become so well behaved and I am so proud of her and us for sticking with the training. Jenny is amazing! I would highly recommend her to every single dog owner!

As a first-time dog owner who ended up with a rescue who I didn’t know was a working breed mix, the community and education Jenny has provided have been invaluable. I know that I can ask questions and make mistakes without judgement. The socialization has been so positive for my dog, and she looks forward to seeing her friends each week. I fully believe that working with Wicked Smart Dogs has made me a more responsible and effective owner to a very happy dog. I’d highly recommend Jenny and Wicked Smart Dogs to dog owners of any level of experience!

I reached out to Jenny Cipriani and Wicked Smart Dogs to help our 4 yr old pup build his confidence. In our first private session, Jenny listened to our concerns and we picked a couple of behaviors to work on. As we approach our first anniversary with Wicked Smart Dogs, we can honestly say that we are pleased with the positive gains our pup has made.  He walks with more confidence during our weekly pack walks. We are learning so much about dog behavior and about our pup, in particular, thanks to Jenny’s expertise. Jenny truly wants every dog and each pup parent to succeed. She gives you the tools to make that happen. She also provides opportunities for group socialization when you and your pup are ready.  It takes continued, consistent practice to have a confident dog. Jenny is there to guide you as you work toward building a trusting, loving relationship with your pet.

 Working with Jenny Cipriani has been an enlightening experience for me.  I now know that a well balanced dog is one that not only can follow basic commands but is also a dog that behaves appropriately in various settings, including places with lots of other dogs and people.  Her emphasis on "socialization" has been incredibly helpful in teaching me how to raise my wild and crazy three-month old Cassie into the happy, well-adjusted, obedient (mostly) three-year old she is today.

When we adopted our puppy Bailey 5 years ago Jenny was recommended to us. She came to our home when Bailey was 14 weeks old and we knew right away we wanted to work with her as we learned so much in just the first visit. Jenny helped with new home adjustment, potting training and basic commands and we all learned  and grew so much together. Her guidance was invaluable! We have a great, happy, well behaved dog which makes a great addition to our family. We went from knowing nothing about training to completing all levels of AKC through Therapy Dog. Bailey has a great pack of friends and dogs that still eagerly welcome him to training and play! Choosing Wicked Smart Dogs was the Best decision we made for our family!

Jenny's training was invaluable to me for many reasons and especially to be able to introduce my Greyhound to other dogs. Because of her training and the pack walks I learned how to introduce my dogs to other dogs safely and can now have my children's dogs come to visit without any issues whatsoever. Occasionally there are 4 additional dogs at my house and they have come together as a pack and behave beautifully. I know I couldn't have accomplished that on my own!

Jenny is amazing. Quinton and I learned a lot   during pack walks and group classes. Training is a work in progress, you get what you put into it. It’s worth the time to train your pup. It’s rewarding for both of you. I highly recommend taking classes. We plan on continuing with formal training in the summer, if my schedule allowed, I would attend year long.

Jenny Cipriani AMAZING!!

We would have been lost without you — first time dog owner and deciding to get two German shepherds without having any knowledge of the dog breed !! What we have learned from you and having the best dogs ever!

Kim P

Best decision we ever made for Kobe.  We’ve learned so much from Jenny and the pack walks are  so much fun for us all.  If you want to work towards a well behaved pet choose Wicked Smart Dogs.
