Testimonials
Penney is not only a wonderful trainer but a wonderful person as well. She is very patient not only with the dogs in training but with the handlers training with their dogs that really seem to need it the most. The dogs pick up what Penney is teaching them ( like a dog whisper) but the handlers need a lot more training but she is very very patient with all of us. I highly recommend her to everyone looking for a trainer with that special touch.
