TESTIMONIALS

Success Stories from Happy Dog Parents

"From Hyper to Calm"

"Thanks to Teresa, our border collie Finley is now a relaxed & happy member of our household. It is hard to explain how hyper, demanding & out of control Finn was. During our In-Person coaching lessons, Teresa taught us how to understand Finley's energy & stress levels and - thank god! - how to help him calm down & look to us for instruction before bolting off after every distraction. Highly recommend!" ~ Laurie

"This is not just a lifesaver, it is a life enhancer."

"Teresa was able to see Barnabas and assess his needs. She had great ideas on how to get him to not just tolerate a walk, but actually enjoy it. The difference she has made is immeasurable.

So would I recommend her services? Absolutely, the proof is in the pudding. We now are able to walk and enjoy our surroundings." -Marilyn

"Highly recommend this"

"I started working with Teresa when my Papillon had fear issues when I first got her. Teresa has an incredible knowledge of dog behavior, and the techniques she taught me quickly dissipated my dog’s fear. She uses an entirely positive training method that focuses on the dog’s well-being." - Lucy

Transform Your Dog's Behavior

The longer you wait to address behavioral issues, the harder they become to correct. Early training isn't just about teaching commands—it's about preventing bad habits from taking root and giving your dog the best chance to thrive.
