Testimonials
I highly recommend Carolyn Tan with Fun with Dog Training. We have taken private and group lessons and my dog and I have learned so much with her guidance and positive reinforcement while having lots of fun! My dog is now trained as a therapy dog and he has his novice and intermediate AKC trick titles. He’s learning canine musical freestyle and had an introduction to basic agility. I also board my dog when I’m out of town and I’m always pleasantly surprised with all the new things he learns.
