I purchased a training package from Tanya, and working with her has been a huge help with my puppy. With everyone getting puppies during Covid, it was hard to find a trainer, and Tanya has been worth every penny. Tanya always has a great plan of attack for our sessions, and my puppy loves working with her too!

We’ve been to a few of the socialization events at both Ironton and the Watering Bowl and they’ve all been great. The puppies (and dogs) get to play with each other as well as practice training elements like polite greetings. Tanya, the head trainer, always provides feedback on body language which we really appreciate as new puppy owners.
Tanya's class is awesome! She is very knowledgeable and patient with dogs. I would definitely recommend her!
The instructor took the time to answer all the questions in detail. It gave a variety of useful info and I would highly recommend it! Thank you!
Great training! I learned new tips I had not in other training classes.
