Testimonials
“I bought my daughter a new puppy. He’s a 14 week old Labrador. He’s very intelligent to be so young. We used the veterinarians at Crossroads in Indiana for his immunizations and de-worming (cheaper). I purchased the puppy package at Petsmart for 6 classes of training, and the instructor was great! She was knowledgeable and funny and kept the class entertaining. Everything she taught us absolutely worked. It was worth the time and effort to wake up on Saturday mornings to learn how to train my puppy.”
