Cannot recommend enough! I went to CanineKind thinking I wanted just for a quick refresher for my 3-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog. After just one session, Heather helped me identify key problem areas and brand new things to teach him that have made my life so much easier. She is so patient (with humans and dogs) and has a way of explaining things that just makes sense, to both of us. We worked entirely via Zoom, but I never felt like trainings were impersonal or unproductive. She's extremely flexible and really takes the time to understand your family, your pup and your situation and implement strategies that work best for YOU! And without any guilt trips for not doing things 100% perfect or "by the book" all the time - she's totally understanding of what it means to have a dog you love and a busy human lifestyle.
I feel like I learned HOW to train Rocky as much as what to train him, which has been invaluable! Now I can apply what Heather taught me and make new progress on my own. Will definitely be coming back for check-ins now and again. read more
