Heather did a fabulous job training our 7-month old Goldendoodle, Ruthie. Heather is very knowledgeable about behavioral principles in training dogs. Her style of teaching is kind, compassionate, sensitive, understanding, firm, and consistent. She is truly focused on the needs of the dog. Ruthie was very excited to go to Heather’s each day for training. My husband and I couldn’t ask for a better person to train Ruthie.
Great experience!! Heather only uses positive enforcement, and in the time we were there i learned so much. My furbaby learned some new commands, and I continue to work with him at home. I look forward to making the next appointment.
Heather is amazing! My puppy took to her immediately and she gave us a lot of hope with her plan and training ideas for resource guarding. I appreciated that she didn't come across as judgmental when she had helpful adjustments for us. Highly recommend her for behavioral modification.
