At Gifmaf, we believe your dogs are as much family as we are. Our founders, Giann Manuel and Giann Carlos Siervo, began training dogs fifteen years ago in Venezuela. However, they were not satisfied with the status quo. They always sought to expand their knowledge to enhance the experience for their dogs.

After a lot of research about the different trainers and training styles we decided to send our 18 month old Beagle to Gifmaf for a 10 day board and train program. Manuela and I discussed all of the issues that we were having from noise aversion to leash pulling. Manuela recommended the 15 day program and we decided to look at our dog’s progress after the first week or so. Gifmaf sent videos of the process almost everyday and after just two days I was thoroughly impressed and couldn’t believe what they had accomplished! When I picked up our dog, Manuela spent plenty of time making sure that I understood everything and that my dog knew that the rules didn’t change just because she was going home. I am so thankful that I found Gifmaf! It was very clear that they are top notch trainers and loved my dog while she was there. I highly recommend them to anyone who is considering having their dog trained. Gifmaf won’t disappoint!
Let's start that I'm a man of few words. listen to me when I say. I would highly recommend and would say taking your dog to GIFMAF is a must. The staff is friendly and kind. They update you on your dogs progress, and answer any question you have. I will use these guys for all of Emily's Daycare and training. You will not be disappointed
We enrolled our 4 month old puppy, Kuma with GiFMaf’s board and train program. The experience was very rewarding. Manuela made sure that we were equipped with the tools and knowledge before leaving their facility on how to continue training at home. Today was our in-house visit after 2 weeks of being back from training; again Manuela answered all of our questions and the review/recap was what we needed to confidently use what we learned and continue building our bond with Kuma. Thank you!
I took my 4 month old Belgian mallinois and I was very hesitant only because I have never done something like this before with my dogs. I am a very nervous person when it comes to my dogs and having them around other people but I knew it was the best thing for him and they were AMAZING with him. Every day I would drop him off he was ready to go straight in and so excited to see all the girls so I knew he was getting a ridiculous amount of love, even though they were strict and training him. At our follow up lesson at the house he was so excited to see the trainer and she was amazing with him and teaching us how to have the best Belgian, which is tough. I felt zero judgment from any of them for having this dog. I was nervous they would tell us “what are we doing, this dog is too much for you, you have no business having him” instead they gave us information on the breed and showed us their own and how well trained they were and said he will be an amazing dog for you. Which was a relief and so nice to hear no judgement. Now he is very well trained and will only get better once he gets a little older. I’m so happy we went forward with Gifmaf and I will be using them for future classes and boarding.
I was initially unsure about bringing my toy poodle in, mainly because she’s so tiny, but when she started showing signs of anxiety, I knew I needed to do something. She would scream all day when I left, refused to walk on a leash, and seemed generally uneasy. I enrolled her in the 15-day program to help with these issues but decided to leave her for the full 30 days to reinforce her learning.
I’m so glad I made that decision. When I picked her up, she was like a completely new dog. She’s incredibly obedient now and has no hesitation when I drop her off or leave her at home. Her demeanor has completely transformed from anxious to calm. She’s more independent, handles her emotions so much better, and is just a joy to be around. It’s clear she was treated with a lot of love and patience because she’s not fearful at all.
Walking her is a breeze, and I can now leave her at home without worrying about her crying all day. She patiently waits for me and is even better with her potty training. This program has made life so much easier for both of us, and I highly recommend it to anyone dealing with obedience or any psychological issues with their dog. Whether your dog is big or small, or any breed, they can help. And if I get another dog, I will definitely use them again.

No tengo palabras suficientes para expresar mi agradecimiento y admiración hacia todo el equipo de GIFMAF Dog Psychology Center. Mi Aussie Max de 2 años, estuvo 15 días entrenando con ellos y los cambios que hemos visto al regresar a casa son simplemente mágicos. Su obediencia, su calma, su atención y, especialmente, sus miedos han mejorado de una manera increíble.
Antes del entrenamiento, yo era una mamá muy frustrada porque Max tenía mucho miedo a las tormentas y los truenos, lo cual afectaba su bienestar y el nuestro. Gracias al amor y dedicación que ponen en su trabajo, Max está mejorando cada día. Es impresionante cómo, a través de técnicas y un enfoque personalizado, lograron lo que parecía imposible. Ahora veo a un perro más seguro y equilibrado, y eso no tiene precio.
Si están buscando un lugar donde realmente entiendan y se preocupen por el bienestar de su mascota, GIFMAF es el lugar. 🫶 Muchísima gracias 🙏
