FirstBarkWent for a consult and gained so much insight. It’s a long progress, but fixing reactivity doesn’t happen in a month. Chase barked at a stuffed animal and showed them what he needs help with. All in all we’re working on it!

We enrolled our dog in Intro to Nose Work. We love the classes and our trainer Alyssa. Our girl has stranger danger but it hasn't been a problem. I highly recommend.
We like Alyssa very much. She is very approachable and patient. She explained things well and had very helpful comments. We had a very nice group of dogs and owners in the class. Our puppy is still very young and we were impressed with how much she learned in the six week class. I think the Puppy Star class is a great way to start off with a new dog.
If you are looking for something fun to do with your dog, we both had a great time with the Intro to Scent Work class taught by Alyssa! Even old(er) dogs can learn new tricks!
We had a great experience working with Jennifer Grentz at Scentsible K9 training during our CGC sessions. Jennifer was knowledgeable, patient, and supportive throughout our sessions. A big thank you as well to Alyssa for bringing her dog into training to help create real-life distractions—it made such a difference in the experience. Anyone would be lucky to work with them
