Sara has an incredible ability to assess the problem with dogs, and implement a plan, and explain the correct handling of dogs. She is patient and works thru the problems. Great demeanor , even established trust with less than trusting, nervous, and sometimes aggressive Jack Russell ! Highly recommend this trainer, having dealt with another trainer who was less than effective!

My fiancé and I are beyond pleased with Sara and her training tips for our pup. We had rescued a 7 month old German Sheppard mix from the local shelter and she seemed untrainable. Sara had come right in and right away our dog knew who was in charge. With Sara’s help we learned a lot of good tricks and are now able to build a relationship with our pup that we didn’t think was possible. We highly recommend Sara to anyone who is having trouble training their pup!

I really don't know where to start.. Having adopted a second dog, the house seemed chaotic; they get along great, but one seemed to be the bully. I knew we needed some guidance. I had never heard of Tranquil, but new I wanted someone close to home; after reading Sara's reviews I called to set up an appointment. Sara walked in our house "in charge" the dogs knew their place. It was actually pretty cool to see. She took the time to ask what issues we were having, walked us step-by-step through the training process. I'm still blown away what 3 hours of training has done for our dogs and us as owners. We asked Sara to come back to help us fit and walk the dogs on a Gentle Lead, as expected, she walked us through it all; also got to see first hand our problem walker; when another dogs around.. she helped guide us through it all.. I was so happy she was there.. I highly recommend Sara to anyone, she is AMAZING!!
Sara is such a wealth of knowledge. She broke everything down for me to make sure that I understood without judging. She is so easy to talk to and is always willing to help! She works with the whole dog and the whole pack. She helps you understand how to be the leader that your dog needs. I would very much recommend Sara’s services!
My husband and I have two dogs that do not get along. Sara was wonderful. She was very positive and brought a great energy to our home. She gave us a lot of valuable information about how to bring peace between the two dogs. She taught us how to keep our dogs and each other safe while teaching us how to become strong pack leaders.
