Testimonials
Excellent and straightforward dog training. We have had our rescue dog for about two months. We enrolled him in obedience and then agility training. Becky takes simple, common sense approaches and exercises to train the dog. People tell us all the time how well behaved our dog is.

Beccie is amazing, helping build great life-long relationships between families and dogs. She trains the human and the owner to speak the same language and consistency in communication. It is a great place to start basic obedience training at a very fair price. We are on our second dog and it is going well.

We had a wonderful time at their farm. Great hosts and the kids look forward to going again! They are very well versed in dog agility and we got to watch a couple of their performances. Impressive!
