Testimonials

Emily is the BEST! Super knowledgeable, sweet and patient with us and our dogs. She knows the answer to all of our questions. She teaches us how to train our dogs. Very hands on! I can’t wait for intermediate classes and then one-on-one too. And the price is fantastic. THANK YOU Emily!!
– Emily

We are so happy with Emily helping us on our journey with Sophie, taking her to Therapy Dog training. Sophie loves Emily too!
– Emily

Emily is an amazing trainer! My dogs are big pullers while on the leash & harness, she showed us a gentle leader & it’s a huge difference. I can walk both dogs by myself, 1 handed! The beginner training is great for basic commands & behavior, but they offer so much more! Considering Brain Games or Tricks for some fun
