left my OEB Philip, at Gannet K-9 Training for a two-week board and train program. Philip had serious dog reactivity–he would lunge and bark at other dogs during our walks, and it was getting really stressful for both of us. Elena, the owner, did an amazing job helping us work through that. She took the time to understand his behavior and gave him the structure and guidance he needed. I noticed a big change after the training–he’s much calmer, more focused, and I feel so much more confident walking him now. I’m really thankful for Elena’s help and highly recommend Gannet K-9 , especially if you’re dealing with obedience or reactivity issues. She truly cares and knows what she’s doing. Thank you, Elena!
