We are thrilled to have Alexandra Bassett, from Dog Savvy LA, work with our two Welsh Corgi puppies. She has been working with us all for about 5 months and we are very happy with their responsiveness. They are happy to obey and engaged in all our interactions with them. Did I mention they love when Alexandra comes? They enjoy her games and the tasks she assigns us. She is patient, listens and her positive reinforcement based approach makes it a great experience. Highly recommend!
