Amanda was so great with our puppy. She gave us the tools we needed to do potty training so it wasn’t stressful. She helped us with teaching our dog not to beg and to be welcomed on the furniture. I would recommend her to anyone.

I can’t say enough great things about Amanda and Atlas Canine! Our 1 year old yorkie, Finn, recently came home from training, and the difference is incredible. Amanda truly cared for him. It was clear he trusted her and she took the time to understand his personality, not just train him. The daily updates, photos, and videos made the experience so much easier and kept us connected the whole time. The results speak for themselves: Finn has been home five days with zero potty accidents. He is calmer, less reactive, and much better at settling and listening, while still being his sweet, smart self. Even more importantly, Amanda didn’t just train Finn, she trained us, too, giving us the tools and confidence to communicate with him better and support him properly. We’re beyond grateful. I would recommend Amanda and Atlas Canine without hesitation. Finn came home better trained and more balanced, and we are now better owners as a result. ❤️🐾
Amanda is utterly fantastic! I really appreciate her work with our dog Lola. She is a completely different Dog in the best way after our sessions. If you're looking for a great trainer, at be a great price, who produces real results, This is the Place!

Amanda was amazing! We did the 1 on 1 trying with her and our 4 month old pup. We are new dog owners and she was very helpful in giving us tips to help improve our dogs listening, leash pulling, and other behaviors. We appreciated that she was able to give us time between sessions to work on the training and address questions as the arose. She gave us different things to try when the first things didn’t work with our dog (because she’s a stubborn sassy girl ;P). We finished our training feeling much more confident and able to continue training on our own. We would 10/10 recommend Atlas Canine PNW!

We trusted our mini Aussie with Amanda and we are so happy we did! Boarding was the best option, as our dog had separation issues in addition to lack of basic command knowledge. Amanda accepted this challenge and was very focused on the areas of concerns we discussed! She kept us up to date the whole time, incorporating video comments during walks and inside actions! Very intelligent and driven to succeed through experience, loving care and expert direction! Thank you for all you have accomplished and the after care/directions for us to maintain all the meaningful learning! We will always think of you for the lifetime impact you provided to Dexter and us! We think of you as extended family!
