You should reach out to the reviewer before you effect a business owner in a negative way. AND AGAIN: Every once in a while you make a decision on blind faith and it pays off BIG TIME. We rescued a 12 week old puppy from Texas and quickly learned we needed pro help as we haven't been puppy parents for 20 years and this little girl was a nutjob and may have been heading down a bad path behavior wise. Kristin got right back to me after my initial web page inquiry. When she arrived, she was relaxed and professional and her kind, caring, genuine personality was obvious from the start. She CARES about our furbaby. Her training skills were so effective even from the initial consultation that this little pup was learning: come,sit,shake and down (heel) and most important to us was her going in her crate when asked as this is something we really want her to master and be comfortable with. Kristin made it known that our role is crucial in her training and gave us handouts for our homework and skills to be met. By the second session, our pupper was learning: "touch" (snoot boops), learning to jump into her bed and "leave it" (biting stuff) and stay. We are able to redirect the evening zoomy/crazy time with physical and mental workouts for her that is good for all of us. The entire time during these sessions, Kristin is upbeat, fun and it really feels like we've known her forever. We trust her to do the best thing for all of us. I'm so happy we connected with her. I am excited for the future of what this little doggo is going to learn,master and how her confidence is going to grow. You cannot go wrong choosing her to help with your furkids. Thank you Kristin!!

Going into it, my greatest fear was that Breelee's happy-go-lucky personality -- the very thing that makes her so special -- would somehow be dulled or changed. I worried she might come home with dimmer eyes or a less joyful spirit. I'm thrilled to say the opposite happened. Breelee came home with the same bright, loving spirit -- but now she also listens beautifully! She comes when called, heels like a champ, and stays in her "place" perfectly, even with distractions. The transformation in her behavior has been amazing without sacrificing any of her sweet, bubbly nature. We owe it all to Chris and the team at Wild River whose expertise, patience, and care made this experience better than we could have hoped. We can't thank them enough and would highly recommend this training to anyone looking to bring out the best in their dog without losing what makes them so special.

After having my dog a few months, I began to notice undesirable behaviors that I wanted to work on with a professional trainer. I listed these behaviors and weighed the options of a group class vs. in home training. Jim focuses on positive reinforcement training which is very appealing to me. Jim has a very reasonable starter package of 3 lessons. He came out for an evaluation of Alibi first. Since starting her lessons, my dog has developed significantly and my ability to control her has increased as well. After working with Jim, you can tell he has a genuine passion for what he does and that he basically understands and loves dogs. My Rottie loves him too. I would highly recommend Jim O'Neil at Great Dog! I have not been disappointed with my choice. He responds to his emails promptly.

While we will likely book another appointment to extend the training, Jim was not at all pushy about additional sessions. All around, a fantastic experience. Highly recommended!
