    The 5 stars are specifically for Denise personally. We had our phone consultation aa planned in hopes I could get my sweet baby some training. Unfortunately, its way more than the budget allows. Prices start at $1,000.00 for puppy and it just goes up from there. Im sure its worth it, but its just too much. Denise earned 5 stars because she spent extra time assisting me find a different trainer for my 9 month old puppy. Thank you Denise, I appreciate your kindness and help.

    In speaking with Denise I felt that she already knew my dog. She projects a deep understanding, and knowledge of the business. I have engaged her company to train our dog and expect great results.

    Kelsie is an excellent puppy trainer . She explains thoroughly, She has the patience of Job. She is very personable. Eevie ( the pup) catches on immediately with her ( Eevie’s parents are still catching on 😀). Kelsie loves what she does, and it shows. We thank you for sending Kelsie to us in our home.

    Trainer is great very patient with adults that can rush things they haven’t worked with. Seems expensive although at the end of training perhaps we won’t consider putting our pet up for adoption
