Testimonials
“When we got Houdini she seemed like such a sweet puppy. We got a video on dog training and did what it said. Then she ate the meter man, a neighbor, and knocked me to the ground each time I walked out the back door. When we finally decided to throw food to her over the fence rather than open the gate or the back door, someone told us about a miracle worker named Lara. We met with her and wondered if Houdini would eat her too but by the 4th lesson Houdini had learned to salute her! Now we take Houdini for walks, we entertain in the back yard as she is in a long stay and wouldn’t dare get up, and we have the well mannered, obedient dog we’ve always wanted.”
– Mia Nelson & Pip the Chihuauha
“Dear Lara: MilliThank you so much for training our dog Milli with amazing results. We purchased our full bred Boxer Pup with high expectations of a life long family dog. We took the advice of a friend who says Boxers are the best and purchased a Championship bloodline boxer. My intuition was right when I got the pick of the litter as my intuition was right when we placed our pup at 7 months old with you for training. When we came to pick up our pup not only did we see a different look in our dog’s eyes but we also brought home a puppy that respected our commands and repeat training. WE TRULY HAVE A DIFFERENT WELL-BEHAVED DOG! With honest, hard working, knowledgeable trainers like you, we not only felt compelled to send you this letter but to recommend you to anyone who wants the job done RIGHT and with RESULTS. Thank you Lara for all your hard work and dedication and most of all THANK YOU for loving our animals, understanding them and taking your job FOR US seriously. Trainers who claim to know what they are doing have already fooled us; you are truly the BEST.”
