Testimonials
“Flynn our doggie just got it’s beginner certificate after 6 weeks of hard work and lots of treats. Lori is an excellent trainer, Flynn made good improvements on walking, sitting, drop,leave, and other commands. We’ve decided to go all the way, including therapy dog. Now for him is the second step- intermediate class and he’ll start it next week. We enjoy the classes too. Thank you, Lori and Petsmart!”

“I just want to share my very unpleasant, painful and very scary experience during one of the beginners training classes… The instructor did nothing to prevent an aggressive dog from approaching my puppy. She focused on treats instead of safety. We are not coming back.”
