FirstBarkWe really enjoyed our first training session with Heather. Her positive reinforcement techniques are far superior to shock or prong collar training. Looking forward to our next session.

Heather was very patient with our puppies and with us as began our training. She gave very useful hints and instructions…even sent home printouts! Very glad we found her and highly recommend.
I just had my first session and Heather did a great job explaining dog behavior to me. She broke each step down and explained the why behind everything she did. She worked with my dog, and then let me try. We also have some "homework" to work on before our next session. I love the fact that she uses positive reinforcement.
Heather is absolutely fantastic. Between the doggy daycares and training Buster since he was 8 weeks old. He has turned into an amazing dog. Heather listens, pays attention and works with us. She gives us reasonable instructions to complete at home. I trust her 100% with my pup.

Working with Heather was such a valuable experience. When we first took our golden retriever puppy to her, Sierra was the proverbial Wild Child. In many ways, she was uncontrollable. After 3 sessions with Heather, she behaves so much better. Heather was very patient and explained and demonstrated things in an easy to understand manner. Her emails after the visits explain in depth everything that had been gone over in the lesson, so you have a reference as you work with your dog at home. I highly recommend Focused Choice Dog Training.
