I was about ready to give up, but training spot has helped us so much. Ready is more relaxed, and able to focus now. Walks are fun again!

I have a nine month old German/Australian Shepard female who will refuse to get in to my truck due to previous car sick episodes. I want to take her with me when I go places. I’m very frustrated!! Any helpful advice would be appreciated! Thank you
Hi Sarah, I would recommend talking with your vet about medication for car sickness. It can be helpful to rule out car sickness first before going the training route.

I am not a trainer, but my dog was the same. I got in the back with her and a treat. I sat there for 20 minutes with her without the car running. I got out with her, walked her around the car, then did it again. She is great now!

They were great with Milton. With some tips and training. Milton started walking better with other dogs and people around.
Training Spot is amazing! I have a dog who barked at everything on walks. Annette taught me that this behavior was out of fear, not aggression. We worked together for 4 private sessions, and my dog has improved significantly. I feel like I now have the tools to continue to work with him to gain his confidence. I highly recommend this place.
Debbie has been wonderful! My dog was so reactive I was afraid nothing would help. Debbie has been encouraging, kind, and full of confidence that we could do it. My dog is happier, I’m happier, and my neighbors are happier. Thanks Debbie!

It's hard to put into words just how wonderful of an experience it's been working with Tera at The Training Spot. To start, Padma was beyond helpful getting us connected with the appropriate service our sweet Hazy May really needed. Her knowledge, communication and assistance was beyond appreciated. I asked a lot of questions and she took really great care of us and our unique situation. Our sweet little girl had a traumatic first few weeks of her life being born in a crowded shelter and has major anxiety, trust and confidence issues. Tera's guidance, patience, kindness and experience is just what we needed. She has gone over and beyond with supporting us in appointments and outside of sessions too. Tera knows her stuff and you aren't treated like a customer, you and your pup are treated like you are the only thing that matters. Between Tera's creative approaches, bonding training techniques, follow up recap emails and the clean, huge and really nice facility - we absolutely love it there! They go over and beyond on all marks!! I also want to give a shoutout to Jen who offered me some advice a few years ago when we rescued a dog and our paths crossed on social media. I was in desperate need of advice and she was so kind to provide some direction for nothing in return. Just shows that everyone there cares so much!!
