We loved Laura and Anna!!! It was obvious that they loved dogs, and really cared that the puppy’s were trained properly. They took a gentle, but firm approach to training, and we were amazed at how quickly our puppy responded! They also helped us to know how to reinforce good behavior when we got home!! The whole experience was delightful!! Thank you ladies for all your help!! ♥️ More...

I highly recommend Anna and Laura—you will have absolutely no regrets choosing them. I truly don’t have the words to express how incredible they’ve been. They have gone far beyond anything I ever expected, and I genuinely believe they were a blessing sent to our family. They care for your furbaby as if they were their own—with love, patience, and so much dedication. Anna and Laura are not only amazing trainers, but also incredibly kind, responsive, and supportive. If you ever have questions or concerns, they’re right there—fully present and all-in. They’ll go above and beyond to help in any way they can. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else. And I’m not saying this just because it sounds “too good to be true”—this is our honest experience. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would click 100 without hesitation. I’m beyond grateful for everything they’ve done for us and for our sweet Sadie. We adopted Sadie from a shelter when she was just 13 weeks old. She seemed to be doing well at first, but after a few weeks, she started to develop behaviors that became really tough for our family—especially for our youngest child. It got to the point where we felt completely lost and had no choice but to return her to the shelter. It broke me. I was devastated and overwhelmed with guilt. But within 24 hours, I went back and brought her home. I knew deep in my heart she deserved better—I just didn’t know how to help her. I prayed for wisdom and for someone who could guide us—and help Sadie become the dog we believed she could be. That’s when my husband found Anna and Laura. The moment they came to meet us, we felt this deep sense of peace. And when they left, Sadie cried for them—that’s when I knew they were meant to be part of our journey. They created a training plan tailored specifically for us, with thoughtful adjustments that made everything feel possible. They met us where we were—with compassion and understanding—and helped us move forward with confidence. Fast forward to now: Sadie has made so much progress, and we are so proud of her. We wouldn’t change a thing. Please—if you’re searching for help, look no further. Anna and Laura are the real deal. They’ve truly changed our lives. They also reminded me of something so important: there’s no such thing as a perfect dog—but with love, guidance, and the right training, any dog can grow into the best version of themselves. Without early structure and support, Sadie was headed down the wrong path. But now? She’s a completely different dog. She’s our golden girl. And honestly, I could go on and on. I love you guys! Knowing that you’re not going anywhere—that you’re stuck with us—means the world to me. Because now, it’s more than just training... it’s family.🤟🏼🫶💕 More...

Our fur baby, Abbey has been going for training and has learned so much in the last few months!! Both Laura and Anna are very good with her and treat her as though she is one of their own. We have loved our experience with them so much that we have asked for them to board our other 2 fur babies when we went on vacation, and I had no worries knowing they were going to be over the top taken care of!! I highly recommend them! More...

It’s always a joy bringing Judah to Laura and Anna! They’re such a blessing to us, always going above and beyond to care for not just Judah’s needs, but mine too! From training tips to grooming essentials, they generously provide free resources to make sure we’re both well taken care of. Judah has done marvelous progress after 7 days of picking him up! Plus, they’re a Deaf-friendly business, which means so much. Couldn’t recommend them more highly! More...

My puppy came back home like a completely new dog! She’s now very well potty-trained and listens far more attentively than she did before. I’m genuinely excited about the progress she’s made and the positive direction she’s heading in. She completed her training in just 7 days, and I wouldn’t want to take her anywhere else. The results speak for themselves! More...

As a dog mom all you really want is for a trainer or caretaker to love your fur babies as much as you do and make them better. This team absolutely does this! They trained my boys and kept them overnight a few days and I see a noticeable difference on some bad behaviors. They were so loving my boys were excited to go back. I think they may have more fun at training than at home even. I absolutely will continue to use these services in the future and you should too!! ❤️❤️ More...

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Marvelous Mannered K9s of Texas! I got my sweet Atlas from them, and the entire experience was nothing short of amazing. From the very beginning, they made the process seamless and stress-free, always available to answer any questions and provide everything I needed. What truly sets them apart is their dedication to quality breeding and training. Atlas has been an absolute dream—spunky & curious, intelligent, and so easy to train, thanks to the fantastic foundation they provided. It’s clear they put so much love and care into their puppies, ensuring they go to their forever homes happy, healthy, and well-socialized.

Laura Cornel is an excellent breeder. Her attention to detail and wanting the best for her pups makes them an exemplary choice in breeder and breed. I just received my puppy Wednesday. He saw the Vet today. He was very complimentary of Laura and my puppy Chase. More...

What do you love most about your job?
? What We Love Most About Our Job
It’s not just about teaching dogs to sit or stay—it’s about watching confidence grow on both ends of the leash.
We love seeing the lightbulb moment when a dog gets it—and the joy on a family’s face when they realize they’ve got this. We love turning chaos into calm, frustration into fun, and helping each dog become the best version of themselves.
But most of all?
We love becoming part of your story—your family—not just for a few sessions, but for the lifetime of your dog.
That bond? That transformation? That tail-wagging, eye-contact, “we did it” moment?
That’s what we live for.
What inspired you to start your own business?
We started Marvelous Mannered K9s of Texas because we saw a gap in the dog training world—too many programs focused only on commands, but left the family out of the equation.
As a mother-daughter team, we wanted to create something different: a place where training is personal, where dogs are treated like family, and where families feel confident and supported long after the training ends.
We didn’t just want to teach dogs.
We wanted to change lives—four paws and two feet at a time.
So we built a business rooted in love, trust, respect, and real-life results. And every time we see a wagging tail and a smiling family? We know we’re right where we’re meant to be
Why should our clients choose you?
Because we treat your dog like family—and we train your family, too.
As a mother-daughter team, we bring not just experience and passion, but a deep personal commitment to every dog we train. We don’t run a one-size-fits-all program. Instead, we take the time to understand your goals, your lifestyle, and your dog’s unique personality—and we build a plan just for you.
Your dog doesn’t stay in a noisy kennel. They stay in our real home with real routines, calm structure, and plenty of love.
You won’t be left guessing what to do after training ends. We coach you every step of the way—with tools, tips, and ongoing support you can trust.
If you want training that sticks, results that last, and a team that’s with you for the long haul—you’ve found your people.
? Marvelous Manners aren’t a mystery. They’re a partnership.
Let’s build yours together.

? In-Person Training with Virtual Follow-Up Support
All training sessions at Marvelous Mannered K9s of Texas are conducted in person, either in our home-based program or on location when applicable.
To support your success beyond the initial training, we offer virtual follow-up sessions to:
• Review progress
• Troubleshoot behavior concerns
• Adjust routines as your dog matures
• Provide ongoing family coaching and support
This hybrid model ensures consistency, convenience, and long-term results—wherever life takes you.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
While we do not have formal COVID restrictions in place, we prioritize a clean and safe space for every dog in our care.
• All crates, training tools, food/water bowls, and surfaces are sanitized regularly
• Frequent handwashing and disinfecting is part of our daily routine
• Dogs are housed in a private, home-based environment—not a high-traffic kennel
Cleanliness and safety are part of our commitment to high-quality care—for your dog and your peace of mind.
🐕 Customized Dog Training That Fits Your Family
No two dogs—or families—are the same. That’s why we create personalized training plans based on your goals, your dog’s needs, and your home routine.
Whether you need help with potty training, obedience, off-leash control, socialization, or behavior challenges, we’ve got you covered. We even offer ASL training and Diabetic Alert Dog foundations.
We train your dog—and teach your family how to keep the progress going with just:
“10 Minutes a Day – Marvelous Mannered to Stay!”
