Testimonials

Thank you, Diana Stromley, from the bottom of my heart for your caring training, support, guidance, one-on-one and the Beginners Classes with 3 other dogs; taught me how to effectively work with my new 8-year old Foster-to Adopt dog, Poppy!!! I was terrified & heartbroken when discovered Poppy was dog aggressive. Yikes! She was everything I wished for…except being reactive when exposed to other dogs. You were my only hope to be able to keep Poppy. Even after witnessing this horrible behavior, your encouragement & training strategies continue to transform Poppy each week.
After the first one-on-one session, I knew you were the instructor I needed. You gave me Hope & confidence, taught me step by step…Poppy continues to improve. You are an amazing professional. Thank you!
– Client

I had good success with my pup in Diana’s beginner class and look forward to the next level of obedience training with her. She is very knowledgeable and always available for questions/issues outside of class. Highly recommend!
– Client

I cannot thank Diana enough for the excellent training she provided for my puppy, Kensie Marie. Diana is a one in a million dog trainer! When my health was an issue to do outside training, she brought Kensie’s training indoors! Thank you Diana for all you did for Kensie and I.
