About us
Happy Waggs is a company started by husband & wife Sarah and Skylar Waggoner. After moving to the dog friendly town of Wanaka, NZ we discovered there was local demand for quality dog training and sitting in the area. Especially 1 0n 1 personalized training, our specialty. With our love for dogs, Skylar's care and training experience, and Sarah's lifelong experience training, showing, and taking care of dogs. We are ready to meet that demand, and thus Happy Waggs was born.
At Happy Waggs we are committed to making a meaningful impact in you and your dog's lives that will last. We do this by improving the communication between you and your dog. Whether it is basic training, advanced training, behaviour improvement, or sitting and daily care, we can help!

“After 6 weeks of generic puppy classes without much success we were desperate for some 1 on 1 training. I am so happy we found Sarah, founder and head trainer at Happy Waggs! She taught us how to be better owners and trainers. She helped us understand our pups behaviors, and how to deal with them. This has relived so much frustration for us! Our Maltipoo Ollie Baba has made so much progress and all of us are so much happier now that we are all on the same page and working together!”​
