Alisha was amazing with my Bernedoodle. I told her my concerns and she immediately went to addressing them. I now have a well mannered pup that I don’t have an issue taking with me when I go places. I highly recommend her for all your training needs.
My dog, Willa-Dean, and I have been working with Alisha since September 2022 and we love her!

My dog, Willa-Dean, and I have been working with Alisha since September 2022 and we love her! I personally went to her for service dog temperament testing and she found that Willa was a great prospect! I had reached out to and met with multiple trainers but found I didn't connect with many. This was not the case for her. She was thoughtful, clear, and comprehensive. I knew right away that I wanted to continue working with her. I have not only learned so much, but each session is a lot of fun! I also really admired that she herself not only has trained service dogs but is a service dog handler herself! This is super rare and adds a layer of connection and sympathy that other trainers can't. Through her service dog program, she truly has helped transform my puppy into a focused, well-trained, and well-adjusted service dog (though we will still continue training). I find her to be very personable and feel it to be a long-term connection!! I cannot say enough good things about her. :) Attached is a picture of my dog, who received her CGC and works on her service dog training through the Duncan School of Canine Excellence! We plan to continue working with this great company!
Alisha was a joy to work with while training my pup, Luna. She was patient, thorough and knowledgeable while working to help build mine and Lunas confidence. We can’t wait to work with her again!
Alisha was great with our rescue golden lab mix, Vivi! She had her listening, sitting, staying, coming and more in only 4 lessons. Not only did she help train our dog, but she helped train us how to continue to work with her. Would highly recommend!
