Carly has been so patient with us and our pup, Jackson, who suffers from really significant allergies and is very anxious and reactive. We are grateful that Carly has taken the time to get to know Jackson and has guided us in taking steps to make sure that we can figure out the root of Jackson's problems. Carly is the first trainer that we have worked with that has actually cared about Jackson as a whole, rather than just his "behavior issues." She is very thorough with her evaluations and is thoughtful when giving us training exercises. Jackson has so much fun with all of the new "games" he has learned at training and is always excited to go to "school," which is a huge step for him! We've also been working on muzzle training and the resources Carly provided us with for that have been so helpful - Jackson gets so happy when he sees his muzzle & knows that it's a positive thing!! We are so excited to keep working with her and see what she can do for us and our pup once we are able to get his allergies under control.

Carly is amazing! She has taught my puppy so many things and has given me a ton of knowledge of how to continue to train her, reading her body language, and how to prevent bad situations between my dogs and myself when feeding. This is all in just 2 sessions. After coming out of a bad training experience with a dominance trainer she is exactly what we needed to get my girl on track

5/5
Beasley is the first puppy we have had in 15 years and we really wanted to make sure he is polite and well mannered. Carly and CHQ Dogs are awesome. Carly is patient teacher and gives clear direction and easy to follow homework. Beasley is well on his way to being a well rounded, nicely mannered pup.

Carly does whatever it takes to get results while maintaining a fantastic ethical code. She was highly accommodating during remote classes and in-person. Carly puts the dogs health, both mental and physical, as a priority and it does wonders for the training and the relationship between the students and the furry students.
