Mindy is a one of a kind animal trainer…read more As a dog trainer, she is kind and patient. She doesn't rush the process, so that you can build a foundation to have a very well behaved pet. She helped me work on my dogs food aggression issues at meal time and his recall off leash. Her own dogs have done everything from hunting to agility to winning obedience classes. As a horse trainer, she has achieved incredible feat. In the 90s she bought a cheap off the track thoroughbred to olympic level, training him from scratch to compete (and win) against some of the best riders in the world with a stable full of million dollar horses. Give her a call, you will not regret it!

Brittany is the best plus she has been working on my little multi-poo who is only two years old and is not exactly the easiest to groom. Ginger Belle comes home looking like the princess she is. Buster comes home smelling like a rose which is not easy with a Shar-Pei they do have an odor he loves it he comes home smelling like lavender. Thank you Brittany for taking wonderful care of my fur kids.

I took my golden retriever there for daycare and I asked if I could tour or see where the dogs…read moreplayed and I was told it's a liability for me to go back there so I thought that was odd because everywhere I have considered- I was able to tour it. But my golden loved going but he would constantly be soaking wet when I picked him up and I finally asked him why is he wet if he's indoors and they said he plays in the dog bowls and I asked them if it was possible to redirect him from not getting wet and they told me if I wanted that then he can play by himself. I also ended up getting my dogs vaccines done by a friend who owns a boarding place in wellford and then they would not let me take my dog back because it wasn't a vet that gave it to him but I had the vaccine file and proof and though I understand their concern- how the owner handled it was so rude. Basically told me it wasn't her problem that I can't bring him anymore. Good thing he won't ever be back anyways. And to add in a grooming tip- my golden had matted ears from playing so much in the water they let him play in every day - that he was getting yeast infections. I asked them to groom his ears and they shaved his ears. SHAVED THEM. He's a golden. My heart was shattered to see them mess up his coat like that. Definitely do not recommend.

After a few weeks with Richard, our great Dane came back with boundaries and understanding commands. Richard spent time again with us so that we had the tools to maintain what he learned. Richard establishes a relationship with the dogs. He's very straightforward and honest. And he offers continued assistance. We highly recommend.

So, Richard just left from our first meeting. I think I'm more exhausted than the dogs are. All…read morethree babies did amazing and learned so much. First off, Richard is a passionate and talented man, it's easy to see from the moment you meet him; Richard does what he loves. Second, he speaks dog... like direct communication, but what's cool is before I knew it, I was communicating with my babies even better. He was teaching me to talk to the dogs the whole time and I had no clue. Third, he inspired me! It is not often you meet somebody with the courage to walk away from every comfort they know to pursue something they love. Richard listened to what I wanted to do, I wanted to strengthen the bond between myself and the dogs. I already see a difference, they do too. I've worked with several trainers in the past and never felt a comfortable, or confident connection and neither did my dogs. I don't know who's more excited about our next lesson, me or the dogs. I can tell you there's more to come. If you want to get to know your dogs better and really strengthen that bond, call Richard. I assure you; you won't have any regrets.
