Ash is really great with dogs. I was looking for a boarding because I have to take my daughter to college August 21 through the 23rd and she just popped up and I feel so comfortable with her and her knowledge of dogs. We finished our consultation and she pointed out some factors about my dog. I have a bully he is 10 months at 70 pounds and I love him to death and the way he interacts with her is incredible how she has him comfortable walking on a leash. This is nothing but heaven sent and I would recommend her to anybody who needs their dog trained as the knowledge for me. It is the different coping skills that she has already mapped out and even though this was only our second time going my dog knew when we pulled up he can just smelled and he raced into her yard and it just made me feel good and I am excited that I have found someone that can take their time with blue because I rehome him and giving him up is not an option and yesterday on August 6 we went for a walk because that’s my biggest problem as the leash he wants to drag me down the street, but with her knowledge and her visual She put him on a long leash and he did wonderful and it’s all new to me and I’m just soaking it all in but if you ever need Dog Trainer, please consider Ash Dog Training!! Side kick training!! An the boarding aspect of it… We will be doing a trial run next week, but I know everything‘s gonna be fine because blue is so comfortable with her, but it will be my first time not being around him or vice versa!!

I’d like to recommend Ash for her insight and understanding of both the dog side of the equation and the human side. I learned a lot and also confirmed other thoughts. Thank you Ash!

Ash is amazing!! Ash helped us feel more confident in learning what our dog Gus was communicating and how we could help him feel more regulated so that we could work together when encountering stressful situations. I love the way Ash focuses on building a relationship with your dog as a key part of training. And Ash cares so much about our dog and is so detail-oriented and responsive to our needs - a complete joy to work with!!

Our dog struggles with nervous aggression and it was becoming overwhelming to cope with. We couldn’t let many people meet him or take him out like we would want due to safety concerns. But wanted more for him. Ash provided a non judgmental, safe space to figure out the root cause of the concerns and all parts of the process were centered on helping us uncover patterns in our dogs behavior and even our own that was contributing. We started with a comprehensive application that dove deep into our dogs history, and was thoughtful about our family to make sure we took a personalized approach to his training. And Ash’s relaxed but also compassionate and precise approach helped us to easily learn but also allowed our dog to become comfortable with them and slowly rewire his nervous system and unlearn some unsafe behaviors. We also were given realistic expectations for seeing adjustments, but also accommodations to help him and us move more comfortably through the world while we continue to learn and work on our skills. Thanks so much!

We found Ash recently when looking for help with our 6 yr old little Sheltie. Our fur baby has had anxiety with noises, meeting new people & excessive barking at most everything. After just a few sessions with Ash our fur baby has calmed right down. Ash has given us wonderful aides to help our little girl and Ash is very knowledgeable on extra training for our Kaylee. I would recommend her to anyone looking for dog training or help with behavior issues.
