Clients Say…

corgi freestyle
So amazing. I can’t wait to take another class. I’ve always loved training and working with Sierra but after this freestyle class, I feel so much more motivation. I am so excited to take future classes there with Sierra!
Stephanie T. with Sierra
Sadie Dog Photo
Sadie does well with training and loves agility class.
Dawn S. with Sadie
Mowgli Dog Photo
It was really good for Mowgli to be around dogs and lots of stimuli, but still practice sitting quietly and being patient. Of course, it was SO fun to have him do the obstacles as well and he seemed to pick them up quickly (though not necessarily execute them quickly haha).
Abby E. with Mowgli
Sarah is a people trainer too, and a very patient one. I feel that if I just follow her directions, I will be able to successfully communicate with Sky. My goal is to enjoy life with Sky as much as possible.
Josephine H. with Sky and Breeze
Doodle Puppy
Amanda was fantastic. She was knowledgeable and incredibly patient and kind. She made learning fun and easy. Amanda was also highly responsive to emails and just overall a pleasure to have worked with.

Cooper Doggie Photo
It was all really helpful – Cooper is working on not jumping up, recall, and not being sassy when we put on the harness 🙂 all of the exercises were helpful and we’ve already started working on them with him and are slowly seeing improvements!
