“Max has only been at ACE a short time and we already see positive changes. Courtney’s knowledge, PATIENCE, experience and dedication to her work with dogs is not only evident, it’s comforting to know Max is understood and worked with in a way that meets him where he is and builds confidence.”

“The boys have been enrolled in the six week academy program and are making great progress! They can be on leash next to each other without freaking out, and they have gone from cowering and shaking getting out of the car to jumping out at drop off time.”
