I have known Sandra, the owner of this business, for more than a decade - longer than she's had this business and the various stages it has gone through with other employees and different locations. In this time, I've trained and boarded my own dogs with her on many occasions.
Sandra is extremely knowledgeable and always has the dogs' best interests at heart. Over the years, she's taken foster dogs from shelters and private individuals to give them a new lease on life through training and placement, she's established herself as a trainer of solid, amazing service dogs, and she's helped countless pets and their owners. She's helped the local 4H dog program, trained many new handlers for their debuts in various dog sports, and cheered on those who trained with her throughout their dog sport experiences.
Sandra is honest, sometimes bluntly so, and some people take offense to it - but it's necessary when working with dogs, especially dogs that are reactive or aggressive. She's also an excellent problem solver, tailoring her program and approach to the needs of each individual dog.
Sandra brings not only her lifetime of experience (she grew up in a dog sport home), her own continuing training and seminar attendance with others to further her knowledge, and ha willingness to adapt her approach to the individual dog that you won't find with any big box store, training chain, or less experienced trainers in this area. read more
