5/5

Sandi's years of experience, not to mention her wit and intuitive perceptions make her a masterful trainer. I can' t say enough encouraging words about her. It had beed 15 years since I last worked with her and when i recently heard Sandi brainstormed Bravo pup ,I was beside myself and eager to start with my new pup. She is the beat in the area. Look no further.
