Testimonials
“We have loved every minute of working with Patrice. She has taught us so much and our girl Greta has thrived with her loving and patient approach. She is quite possibly one of the kindest people I know. She teaches without demeaning and let’s be real, she’s really training us!! HaHa!! We were so pleased with Greta’s progress that we are now starting her at the next level.”

“Patrice took a terrified Boston terrier and turned him into the most confident 7 month old you’ve ever seen! Toby was scared of the crate, cars, dogs, and especially walking on a leash. Now he loves doing commands AND loves his long walks now. I recommend her to anyone!”
– N/A
“I cannot recommend working with Patrice enough and only regret not contacting her sooner! Before we worked with Patrice, our dog was a puller on walks and very leash reactive. He can now reliably walk by our side without lunging/barking at other dogs. He also has a way better mastery of the other basic commands like place/come/etc.”
