-Testimonials-

"My husband and I have been working with Shelley for many weeks now. She has helped us immensely with our huge, lovable Doberman! Shelley's expertise with dogs is evident every time we meet. But besides
her knowledge and experience, she has a friendly, gentle manner that is
absolutely wonderful toward both dogs and humans! Never condescending, but always professionally assertive, Shelley has taught us so much and we will always be grateful that we met her." Frank and Betsy Fonseca


"Shelley provided invaluable advice in managing our dog’s on-leash behavior. She came up with great exercises to desensitize him and introduce him to a variety of situations. She had so many simple tips on how to handle different situations and even put together tip sheets and additional exercises to try outside our normal lessons. It’s given us much more confidence in handling him – it’s made a huge difference for all of us!"

Kaya. I adore this girl. When we first started training years ago, she barked out of fear for almost 30 minutes at me. With patience and lots of treats , and consistent positive associations to people, she can now run free. She is still shy but can do so much more. She learns to trust new people so much quicker and her spritely personality shines through.

Her favorite thing to do with her new found freedom is bounce with joy at the beach.
