“Cheryl is amazing at the work she does. Her love for dogs really shows in the way she trains them and the dogs respond quickly to her techniques. She is also very good in her communication with us, the client, as we really are getting trained as well! We had such a great experience with her training our first dog that we called her back to help with our second and newest one! We are very happy with the results of practicing her training techniques with our dogs!”
