Recent Graduate - Jazmin RoseJazmin Rose, a one-year old Shorkie, owned by Barb. Jaz was a nervous barker and a wiley thief who also needed some house-training rules. This girl has done a complete turn around: she is more confident, welcoming, and listens better.
Congratulations, Jaz! |

PS
"Kristen,
Thank you so much for our training sessions. You presented several different training ideas. We appreciate your diligence with working with Casey as we know he is not the easiest dog to train. However, we do notice a big difference in him around the house. The outside world is still a challenge but we know to continue working on it. Also the doorbell trips are getting better but again it is something that is taking a little longer. Much success to you and your business. PS. We will definitely recommend your training if we know someone who is looking for help."
