Fetch and Flex

Highly recommend. We took our pup just hoping to get some tips on recall. Tracy did more to help us understand and train our dog in an hour than others had over several weeks. She also encouraged us to let him think about the task, not just try to program him. She helped tap into what drives him and already it’s paying dividends. You won’t find a better trainer—especially if your have a dog with sport and game in their DNA.

Me and my Miniature Schnauzer absolutely LOVE Fetch and Flex! We’ve done a variety of classes, including both private and group lessons, and every experience has been fantastic. We started with Barn Hunt, moved on to Shed Hunting, and just completed our first Happy Ratters class this past weekend. As someone completely new to these dog sports, I couldn’t have asked for better instructors. Carol Ann and Tracy do an amazing job explaining everything in a way that’s easy to understand, encouraging, and fun. They create an environment where both dogs and humans can learn and succeed. The biggest endorsement comes from my Miniature Schnauzer Jack. The moment we get anywhere near Chelsea, Alabama, he starts vibrating with excitement because he knows exactly where we’re going! Apparently, Fetch and Flex is the canine equivalent of Disney World. 😂 Whether you’re brand new to dog sports or looking to try something different with your dog, I highly recommend Fetch and Flex. We’ve learned so much, met wonderful people, and had an absolute blast every step of the way.

At around one year old, my youngest Bernese Mountain Dog, Gibson, began to limp. A specialist diagnosed him with a genetic knee condition that causes the cranial cruciate in the knee to disintegrate. Within the next 5 weeks Gibson had TPLO surgery on both knees. As he began recovering from the first knee surgery, my vets recommended the amazing Carol Anne Phillips to begin rehabilitation. The benefits he received continuously from Carol Anne - stretching, massaging, etc - led him to have fully functional knees within 11 weeks of his first surgery. Furthermore, the relationship he developed with Carol Anne is amazingly strong and, as a working dog, he would and will work for Carol Anne throughout his life. My puppy again has a bright future with a healthy body and a bond with Carol Anne that will last his lifetime!

Carol Anne has done an incredible job working with my vizsla, Bentley! She is kind, caring and so attentive to detail. He absolutely loves going to work with her bc she makes him comfortable but also challenges him when appropriate, he’s always so excited to go! Carol Anne is very knowledgeable and it’s obvious she has a passion for her work! My expectations have definitely been exceeded. I would highly recommend Fetch and Flex for all the doggies out there!
