The session was very helpful, we learned so much. Each of our dogs were evaluated from a health perspective on top of behavioral, interaction, age, breed. We highly recommend this trainer and business.

Kristen has been wonderful in working with my dogs . I have a puppy that’s very playful with a more grumpy older dog , she’s working with them On learning tricks , getting along and just being more relaxed and learning to live together. She has been amazing with following up , making schedules for the puppy and just working with us. I am confident by the time we are done with our training the dogs will be in a much better place !
