Testimonials

“I haven’t done individual training before. The group classes went well but there is nothing like one on one targeted especially for individual pups. Especially having an expert trainer who could really see what each pup needed and how to break down the training steps for each.”
-Sari

“Allison is an awesome dog trainer she took the sometimes chaotic moments with our puppy and turned them into pleasurable moments and now our puppy is a well-trained dog. Beyond Allison’s Amazing training skill set she is loving and kind towards our dog. Allison is professional and trustworthy.”
-Robin

“We got a 3 year old dog from a breeder, where she had lived in a kennel and had never been in a house. Allison was immeasurably helpful in helping with her leash walking skills and getting her exposure to outside noises and other distractions so she can learn to walk easily when we are at our apartment in NYC. Allison is knowledgeable, patient, and has great training ideas.”
-Dorothy L.
