Testimonials
“The 2-week board & training was worth every penny. Confident Canine treated Bob like one of their own (that is very important to me). I got daily pics and videos of the training process & of Bob just living his best life! Any questions or concerns I had were answered and it helped reassure me that Bob was in great hands. The 2-week board & training was worth every penny & I’m proud that Bob is part of the Confident Canine family.”

“The Confident Canine changed my life and Sasha’s life for the better! I couldn’t have asked for a better trainer than Emily! Emily is extremely educated with all breeds of dogs as well as their behaviors. Emily’s one on one home consultation was extremely helpful both for Sasha and me! Emily got to meet Sasha one on one ahead of time in her own environment and had time to access her behaviors and go over in detail the plan for her training. Emily made the whole experience a breeze! She assured me that Sasha would be in the best hands for the two weeks she was with her, and she was not wrong! Sasha had a blast each day with Emily’s two Great Danes! She got the proper exercise and playtime that she needed on top of her training. Emily is very on top of staying in constant communication with her clients. She sends daily updates via text and videos throughout the day. She changed my life and Sasha’s life for the better! I can’t thank her enough for all of her hard work and dedication and put in with training Sasha. She is an amazing person and trainer, and if I had to do it all over again, I would in a heartbeat! Trust me when I tell you, you will not be disappointed when choosing Emily!”

“I would trust The Confident Canine’s advice on absolutely anything with regard to my dogs. Emily is a rare breed herself. She is an unyieldingly hard worker, always pleasant and friendly, never late, trustworthy, and a great human to dogs. I would trust Emily’s advice on absolutely anything with regard to my dogs. I know she knows what she’s doing and she trains humans to be great pet parents!!!”
