I have a 1-2 ish year old German Shepherd Mix. She is a rescue. Since I got her, Mila has been…read morenotoriously stubborn. She is smart enough to make her own decisions, and that includes ignoring me! Mila and I had previously went to a positive only trainer. That trainer could not get Mila to walk nicely on a leash or perform commands outside my apartment. I was SUPER hesitant on starting "balanced" training. Even before I committed to doing training sessions with Susie, she spent the time explaining her methods and how she teaches dogs. From the get go, before we even started training, Susie took the time to explain to me in detail what she was doing, why she was doing it, and how to respond to Mila's behavior. After 3 sessions with Susie, the dog that used to ignore me on walks and pay zero mind to me is now listening to my commands on walks and checking in on me when I don't ask for it. The three sessions with Susie have been night and day with Mila's behavior. Susie has been so patient with mine and Mila's learning journey. I was able to learn more about dog training and strengthen my relationship with Mila through this experience. You can tell Susie is TREMENDOUSLY passionate about dog training and behavior, and I would 3000% recommend Susie to anyone.

This is one of the most filthiest pet stores I've ever gone to and will never go back to. My family…read moreand I were in there to get a small pet. We were looking at the fish and noticed that half of them were dead still in the cups or the tanks. One of the hamsters was dead just lying there and you could tell it had been days before anyone would even see. When I mentioned it to one of the employees, they just waved their hand and said they'll get to it when they have time. I was appalled and walked out. I called the health department to hopefully have someone go out there as there are dead animals in their tanks and not being dealt with, and it can be a hazard to other animals being put in the tanks or someone buying a pet that was inside with a deceased animal. I wanted to speak to their manager before I left and they told me that he wasn't available. I've never seen anything like this in my life. I hope that my phone call to corporate can resolve the issues with the store.

For months we struggled with our one-and-a-half year old golden retriever's separation anxiety…read more(S.A.). We read books, blogs and forums, tried specialty products and pheromones, and had calls with other trainers. Unfortunately, nothing worked. Until we discovered Tiffany. Tiffany's program, guidance and encouraging attitude has changed our dog's life. He now rests comfortably at home alone. Anyone who has dealt with S.A., knows how challenging the issue can be, so it should go without saying that this is a process - and oftentimes a long one. But if you put in the time, and follow Tiffany's program carefully, it works. (Or at least it did for us. After working with Tiffany we understand well how "every dog is different.") For our golden, it took about a month and a half to see any changes, around 2.5 months for a solid breakthrough, and by 3.5 months we were practically dancing when we could be gone for 45-60 minutes with no signs of stress. Prior to working with Tiffany, we wondered if that would ever be possible. Tiffany is a dream to work with. Given that we live in Holland -- 6 hours ahead of Eastern Time -- we required a lot of flexibility and coordination from her and she's always found a way to work with our schedule (via Skype). When it comes to providing training assignments/"missions," she always delivers on her promises, provides clear and constructive feedback, and is just an all-around sweetheart. She's a wonderful, supportive coach through a challenging process. We could not recommend her more.

Finally my pup is comfortable and relaxed!…read more I'm a single, young professional who brought home a puppy while I was still in school. I read several books on dog training and caring for a puppy and I thought I would be 100% prepared. What came next I could never have imagined. I had a pup with severe separation anxiety. I could not leave my dog in my bedroom and walk downstairs even for a minute or two without him crying and scratching my door or bitting on the crate. It was a nightmare having to leave him, or finding people to always watch him. I felt as though I had no freedom anymore. And helpless, as I couldn't help my puppy in anyway to be more confident or to be more comfortable by himself. I knew that I couldn't keep this up. I read several things online and watched videos, however, no one seemed to have any advice on the type of severe anxiety I was experiencing. Then a miracle happened and I found Tiffany. I called her and begged her to help me! I even got emotional. Tiffany asked me several questions about my pup and my lifestyle, comforted me, analyzed my situation and said she could help. First I read the book "Treating Separation Anxiety in Dogs" by Malena DeMartini-Price. I worked with Tiffany for a couple of months, my puppy and I looked forward to every session. Tiffany guided us step by step through the entire process. Not only would she answer questions regarding training but she is also extremely knowledgeable and helpful when it came to choosing a doggy day care, choosing cameras, and advice in moving to a new apartment. She is caring, compassionate, understanding, and very wise. I can not thank her enough. I felt that I could trust her and confide in her. She truly cared about my dog, Woden, and how I was doing. (having a pup with separation anxiety is very hard on the owner as well) She was clear in her instructions, and setting up my expectations. The program was created for my pup, Woden specifically. Everyday was different, and tailored for Woden and I. Even though I do live in Florida, in the area, it was never necessary to meet in person. The program is designed so it trains YOU in how to train your dog. This program is the best because, unlike other programs, it teaches you how to read your dog, so you can continue training in the future after your time with Tiffany ends. It also teaches the dog to be comfortable with you and in your home. I highly recommend contacting Cold Nose College to anyone, regardless of where you are located. Woden is now a happy 9 month old pup and as of today I can leave him for 2 hours worry free! And we are only improving every day. If I could go back in time and change one thing, I would have called Tiffany sooner. This program has brought my puppy and I pure peace of mind, and it has taught me how to train and understand any dog I may have moving forward. It was worth every second and every penny. I urge you to give them a call. Tiffany is a life saver! I owe my puppy's happy and relaxed mindset to her!

I was referred to Carol while I was looking for a board and train program. Our two year old…read moreMaltipoo had never been boarded or away from our family. We had an emergency situation and needed to leave him for a week. "Papi" has major seperation anxiety, socialization issues, and many other issues that needed to worked on and corrected. He was also on medication due to his high level of anxiety, impulsive behavior, and overall hyperness. We had worked with another trainer for several months and utilized every collar, gadget and technique to try to correct his behavior but never obtained the desired level of success. "Papi" is definitely a dog that would have ended up in a shelter as a lost cause by a less committed family (and I will admit I had my fantasies of doing this...) Papi completely controlled our lives and often filled it with stress. Enter Carol @ DePaul K9 Acedemy. Our life saver!! I contacted Carol in regard to boarding and training Papi for the week my husband was having surgery. She came over the next day and spent several hours getting to know us and Papi. A few days later we met her at the park near her house where she worked with Papi and then at her house to introduce Papi to her dog Journey, house, and family. The following day we left Papi for his "stay." Carol was in constant communication, sending us videos of Papi's training that absolutely blew us away. At the end of the boarding week, Papi was well on his way to becoming the "Canine Good Citizen" of our hopes and dreams. As with any dog training program, it is imperative that the "parent" owners and family learn the proper handling techniques and commands. Carol taught us that consistency, patience, timing, correction, and praise / reward are all key elements in achieving our goals for Papi. As we move forward in our training, Papi is now using socialization / distraction techniques with just his correction collar. He is also medication free and thriving due to Carol's training techniques. One of the many things that we truly value and appreciate is that Carol does extensive research and shares information via email or text on a near daily basis. She "checks-in" often and requests videos from our family training sessions to review and critique. She truly owns her training and offers far more than the standard one hour training session and then I'll see you next week. Due to Carol's training, our home is fast becoming a stress free, peaceful environment for all family members. Carol is an incredible, loving trainer who is 100% committed to achieving her client's goals. In her own words, "Carol loves all of her dogs" and the end result has been absolutely incredibile! She is simply the best!!
