We can't say enough good things about Chantel and the incredible work she did with our dog, Gunner…read more Gunner is a rescue from a shelter and came to us very reactive toward both people and other dogs, especially when we were out on walks which became something we dreaded doing. We wanted to help him, but we weren't sure what to do or where to turn. After meeting with Chantel, she saw how he was reacting to others on his walk and she said this is something she sees a lot and would be able to help him. After his three weeks of training, the results have been beyond what we hoped for. Gunner has made an amazing transformation, and we now feel more confident taking him out and enjoying walks with him. She updated us throughout the three weeks on his progress and at the end of the training, she spent time teaching us how to work with him daily to continue his training at home. Chantel was patient, knowledgeable, caring and took the time to understand Gunner and his needs. We are so grateful we made the decision to work with Chantel. We highly recommend Chantel - she has made a huge difference in Gunner's life -- and in ours!

Wow, was I amazed at the results! I'm not suggesting our pup is now perfect, but she is so attentive, a pleasure to walk, and seems to understand when she needs to behave and when she can be crazy. I highly recommend Chantel's services.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Russ and Anthony at Enlighten Dogs in Cherry Valley. I…read morebrought my dog Sage to them specifically for behavioral training, and the experience has been exceptional. Sage needed more than basic obedience training--she had behavioral issues that I was genuinely concerned about, and I wanted trainers who were knowledgeable, experienced, patient, and capable of working with a strong dog. From the beginning, Russ and Anthony took the time to understand Sage as an individual instead of treating her like just another dog in a training program. Their knowledge of dog behavior really shows. They have worked with Sage in a way that provides structure and clear expectations while still building her confidence. The difference I have seen in her behavior has been incredible. Just as importantly, they have helped me better understand Sage, what triggers certain behaviors, and how I can continue reinforcing her training at home. You can tell Russ and Anthony truly care about the dogs entrusted to them. I felt comfortable knowing Sage was in capable hands, which means a lot when you're trusting someone with a dog you love. If you have a dog with behavioral challenges and are looking for trainers who take the work seriously, I highly recommend Enlighten Dogs. Russ and Anthony have put so much time, patience, and expertise into Sage, and I am extremely grateful for everything they've done for her. Thank you, Russ and Anthony, for helping Sage become the best version of herself. You guys are amazing! -- Deborah & Sage

Even though my husband and I both grew up with dogs, we didn't fully understand what proper training involved until working with Arturo. Thanks to him, we've been able to use the techniques he taught us to create a more peaceful and positive environment for both of our dogs.
