Kelsie is amazing! She goes above and beyond with us working with our dog Hoss. She has become more like a good friend since we’ve met her. Five stars for this young lady!!

I cannot say enough awesome things about Anthony. He has helped me and my rescue dog Beau tremendously over the last few months… I have a whole new dog now. He is confident and well-mannered thanks to Anthony.
