Michele’s training has been great for our one year old dog! We are trying to get him trained before our new baby arrives. After only a few sessions we have made so much progress. Definitely recommend!

Michelle is AMAZING! She is helping me work with my TWO Newfoundland puppies! We are currently working toward their STAR Puppy Cert and then CGC Certificates. She is helpful, fun and wonderful at what she does! My pups get so excited when we pull up to for our lessons, not sure which of us (me or my girls) are more pumped for each session. HIGH RECOMMEND MICHELLE!
