Alice, Rita and their talented team of trainers! From getting your puppy off to a good start, taking fun classes, to dealing with extreme dog/people reactivity. I can't begin to describe the value you get when you attend their classes. They enrich your relationship with your pooch and teach you about the latest science on canine cognition. Their eagle eyes and years of experience also ensure they tweak your handling and communication skills to ensure you achieve results. Clear communication through positive associations achieved without any grumpy stuff. They're my heroes.

DOGSAFE!!! I think EVERY guardian would benefit from Michelle's workshops!
There's so much important information to learn. Everything from how to keep on top of current health to what TO DO in an emergency. It's all presented in a way you'll actually retain it! Live demos, you get a workbook, watch slides, and there's hands on work too!
