FirstBarkAli is AMAZING! I brought my golden retriever puppy Millie to her for basic training. She was incredibly patient and kind. Now we are starting advanced training. Ali is very knowledgeable and it is very apparent that this is a passion of hers. I can’t recommend Ali enough! I truly had a wonderful experience and I am excited to continue working with her!

I can't recommend Ali enough! We have a puppy that was extremely shy and reactive to people and other dogs. With her training, he is now a completely different puppy! She was immediately able to access what he needed and give us the proper techniques for a well-rounded dog. Ali was exactly what we needed and am so pleased with her program. Thank you Ali!

We adopted a sweet puppy from the animal shelter that soon became a very strong, strong-willed dog with significant behavioral problems. We couldn’t walk her because she would growl, snap and became belligerent on leash. She was easily adrenalized and frankly, was a bully. Ali was patient and thoughtful while teaching us ways to calm our puppy as well as mange her behavior. Now, our puppy walks beautifully on a leash and I can have her sit while other people and dogs pass. I have gotten so many comments from people how well behaved our dog is! Very grateful to Ali for helping us learn how to work with our pup and, if not for Ali, I am pretty sure we would’ve given up and needed to have someone else take her. Although our puppy is still young and need’s continuing training, we have the confidence and skills to do it!
If you need a puppy or dog trainer go to Ali. I have had a few dogs and a few trainers and no other trainer has helped my family train a dog like Ali.

If you need a puppy or dog trainer go to Ali. I have had a few dogs and a few trainers and no other trainer has helped my family train a dog like Ali. I brought our 16 week old Golden Retriever puppy to her and he was biting (puppy bites) so much that he couldn't be around us. She told me how to stop that behavior and it worked. We continued with the 8 week training session and also with the puppy classes. Ali is great to work with.
I have a rescue pup that was seriously maltreated at the start of her life, thanks to Ali she is becoming a wonderful dog growing in confidence every session we do with her. Ali takes time to understand what issues your dog may have and gives you the skills to help overcome them. Ali is a dog behaviorist not just a trainer . 100% recommend.
