My husband and I adopted Piper, a one year old Australian Labradoodle . We soon realized that she was very skittish and afraid of everything especially loud noises and sudden movements. My desire was for Piper to feel comfortable in different situations especially when traveling. Upon research, I found Stephanie who owns The Dog Training Spot. After looking at her reviews and credentials, we called her. What a great decision! Stephanie did wonders with Piper. I really liked Stephanie‘s methods with positive reinforcement training. We can now take Piper anywhere as she is so much more comfortable and secure around people and other animals. Stephanie is a top class trainer and I feel so fortunate to have found her. Thank you Stephanie so much for all you did for us and Piper.

Excellent, excellent, excellent!!! I have used many dog trainers over years and Stephanie was by far the best. She was in total control of my dog when she got out of the car. Very concise and thorough.

Stephanie exceeded all of our expectations. Our rescue Lyla is much calmer, and relaxed now. She listens much better, and I've also learned how to understand her much better. Plus, she has a great place for daycare, and boarding now!

Our little LuLu has been great with Stephanie! We were not sure how she would act with other dogs but she does great with Stephanie's help! Great place to board and doggie daycare! We never feel like we have to worry about leaving our LuLu!
