We learned as much as our dog learned from Maria. The classes, starting as a puppy, were invaluable for socialization, basic skills and now more advanced skills but also lots of fun! Highly recommended!
We’ve had a wonderful experience with our dog Tallulah in Puppy Camp, group training classes, and 1:1 sessions. She has come so far, and Maria, Yağmur, and all the others at Fetch the Leash have been a joy to work with!
This class was small enough to get individual coaching. The instructor was knowledgeable and helpful. I will take another class with them!
Superb, positive, smart, thoughtful, and FUN training. We will be back! THANK YOU! Yağmur led a fabulous class. Always great feedback to make things come together. Keen was awesome, too. We will love to do more! Training is SO important! And I love the positive nature of this business. It felt right!
