Testimonials

“I wasn’t sure what to expect , I’d been around trainers of other types of animals and honestly was nervous. I am happy to say that as soon as I met Jill in person I was extremely at ease, nerves were gone Skye fell in love with her at first sight. Having some mobility issues Jill was more than helpful and accommodating to my needs as well as Skye’s issues with the 45 minute drive and his car sickness . The training area and play area are very very nice, welcoming and peaceful a wonderful place to teach and learn. Skye and I both learned a lot I knew my dog was smart but Jill showed me he was even more intelligent than I thought. Skye loves to learn and loves to be in class with her wether it was with the other dogs or one on one training , we will be signing up for the next step in our training in the near future. Can’t wait to see what’s next. See you soon Jill !!!!.”
