FirstBarkChristine was a pleasure to work with. She was so helpful with our new Yorkie puppy. She had a lot of wonderful ideas and tips which have helped us train our little Enzo. I wanted help with potty training and she gave us so much more than that. I recommend her immensely!

Need help training your dog? Look no further! Dogs 4 Life is the top choice. Christine is amazing and our puppy absolutely loves her. She has tried and true techniques that with repetition will change the quality of life with your fur baby. I never had a dog before and felt overwhelmed with trying to train and potty train a 4 month old puppy. Christine showed us training and techniques that had immediate positive impact. She patient, caring and straightforward. We’re so glad we found her!
Definitely worth the investment, Christine helped me with both single and multi dog training and the template she set up for me to follow with my dogs has been so valuable! I highly recommend Dogs 4 Life and I will continue to have Christine help me with furthering the training of my 4 pups!

Christine is wonderful to work with! She has a unique set of skills and knowledge that allows her to approach pets from a more holistic point of view. She understands that each pet is an individual with his or her own set of specific needs. I worked with Christine to set up a balanced, nutritional diet for both of my dogs. She was able to combine their individual diet restrictions to make one recipe that both could safely enjoy and she developed one unique recipe for each of them too. She has a flexible approach that allows her to adapt to situations and the exact needs of the pets. I highly recommend working with her!
