Testimonials
“Couldn’t ask for any better in a trainer! Lynda is very one on one with the dog and the owner. Saw results after the first session! I will continue to use the techniques she has given us daily! I give her a ten out of ten!”
– Ashley L.
“I Reached out to Lynda, and within an hour had a response. She was easy to get a weekly schedule with. I love that she comes to you as we tried training our puppers in a group setting, and he wasn’t getting it. I like that Lynda would reach out on the ‘off’ training days to see how it was going. Dog training can get frustrating, Lynda kept reminding me how far we had come. Very encouraging throughout and very easy to work with. Would recommend her to anyone needing some dog training.”
