Beyond Allison's Amazing training skill set she is loving and kind towards our dog. Allison is professional and trustworthy."
Sari - Client and Parent of 2 puppies: "I haven't done individual training before. The group classes went well but there is nothing like one on one targeted especially for individual pups. Especially having an expert trainer who could really see what each pup needed and how to break down the training steps for each."
Marlene - Dog Mom and client: "Allison speaks dog, and provided such great guidance and advice, By the time our training sessions were finished, we felt confident that we could build on what we all learned."
Janet R. - Client and Dog Mom: "The homeschool option is great. You are the only one I found that provides this service. I think you training in an environment Nushey was used to helped him a great deal. The transfer session for me was extremely helpful as well. Group classes did not allow for a good environment for Nushey. The environment stressed him out. I think the board and train he did early on may have also added to his stressors as well."
