I went to Bridgett with a very reactive Great Dane puppy, and spent the entire first lesson holding him back from barking and lunging. After about three months we’ve seen great improvements in his ability to cope with the outside world and feel more confident without having to be aggressive with anything that moves. While we still have a very long way to go he’s no longer people reactive and is getting much better with other dogs. She’s helping us create a great relationship with him, and provide a better life for him.

I have taken my German Shepherd, Cass, to Brigette Thomson a few times now. Cass was bad on walks, not good with meeting people outside of her own home because of anxiety, and had more obedience training she needed work on.

I have taken my German Shepherd, Cass, to Brigette Thomson a few times now. Cass was bad on walks, not good with meeting people outside of her own home because of anxiety, and had more obedience training she needed work on. We still have some goals that aren’t reached yet with Cass, but in only two actual private training sessions with her, it has been night and day. The behavior of Cass has been incredibly different as far as actually listening to me and now I feel we have an even closer bond. I recommend Thomson K9 Services for all your dog training needs!

We used Thomson K9 Services and have nothing but positive feedback. From the beginning, the expectations of the 3 week training course were explained to us and plenty of time was given to answer any and all of our questions. Throughout the training, pictures and videos were shared with us to see the advancements and give us assurances that Max was progressing well. When the training concluded, ample time was given to us to see Maxs progress in person and work together to make sure that we understood how to keep Max moving in the right direction. Overall, wonderful training process. Based on very reasonable cost for the training, the value for the results was unmatched. Thank you Thomson K9 for everything!

My husband and I took our 7mo old bernedoodle Harry for a 2 week board and train with Thomson k9. Brigitte was patient and thorough with our pup. She touched base with us frequently and it was exciting seeing his training on her social media. We could truly see him in action. Once his training was complete we had a few follow up sessions to make sure we were comfortable with everything. She gave us documentation and a cheat sheet with commands as well. We will be returning for additional lessons once he is more mature as well. Would recommend to anyone seeking board and train for their dog.
