FirstBarkI don’t understand the lying and deceit that went into this. That’s ridiculous and it upset me. If you want a word of advice do not take your dog to be trained over here as they take your money and scam you without making you’re lovable friend a Loyal hero and lover.

There was ineffective training and no communication
Not a very good experience, was professional.

We had just gotten a new puppy this summer, when, by chance, we encounter a dog at a nursing home facility, who was amazingly well trained. I talked to the owner of that dog and she gave me the name of "Dogs4Life" in North Aurora. After our puppy had finished all of her shots, I contacted Christine (at Dogs4Life) and we made arrangements for "Abby" to attend the 12 day Puppy Boot Camp/Board and Train. Abby had a few behavior issues that we needed to deal with and we weren't having much success. As she was getting bigger, she was jumping up and pulling things off the counter. She was also pulling and tugging at clothes and she was still 'play biting' my hands and she was going on 6 months and has real teeth. Christine is a miracle worker. In 12 days, we picked up a different puppy. Walking her on a leash is now is a joy; no more pulling or tugging or getting us both tangled up in the leash. I, seriously, have to check the leash to make sure she is still there (lol). She sits, she stays and goes to her "pillow" on command and stays there until dismissed. No more biting hands or pulling clothes. Christine is also gave us new and valuable insight into Abby's personality. I also had spoken with other dog trainers around our area before we found "Dogs4Life and before even had the puppy, and some of them were cost prohibitive. Christine's services are very reasonably priced and she is very knowledgeable about canine nutrition and canine behaviors. This was a wonderful experience for us and for our Abby!
I found Christine on a Yelp search and I'm so glad that I did! She has impacted my dogs life (and my life) in so many positive ways.

I found Christine on a Yelp search and I'm so glad that I did! She has impacted my dogs life (and my life) in so many positive ways. It started with training but she has also become my go-to person for allergy info, diet recommendations and most questions I have about heath and behavior. When I can't solve a problem, she always has a practical solution on how I work with my dog to change/ improve the behavior. Using Christine's approach, I always get results. I would highly recommend Christine! For us, she is much more than a trainer. She is a guru of all things pup and we will always seek her help!
