I would definitely recommend Nicole to any dog owner! I came with a dog who was reactive to other dogs, squirrels, cats, and people walking by. I now have a quiet calm wonderful corgi/Great Pyrenees! Thank you Nicole!

I attended the Let's Relax workshop and we learned so much! I have some new strategies that will help my dog learn to relax around the things that normally make her excited or anxious. I am already seeing an improvement in her behavior!
Nicole is absolutely amazing. She has helped me train my silver lab when I needed help the most . I love the fact my puppy lives in her house while I'm on vacation and not stuck in a cage or kennel.
I have a 11 month german Shepherd....all I have to say is my dog Bruce has learned more in the two training sessions with Nicole than the 18 previous training sessions with other Trainers. I am extremely excited to see how Bruce is after eight weeks! Thanks Nicole!

Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU! I can not say enough good things about Nicole and her board and train program. After losing a dog last year our family decided it was time to get a puppy. We found a chocolate lab that we fell in love with. At first everything was going great, potty training went well and I could walk him easy enough. Then as the months progressed and he grew bigger and bigger things began to get crazy. He was chewing up shoes any chance he got (I lost track of how many flip flops were destroyed), pulling on walks, had to be put in a kennel so my other dog and my family could eat in peace without him attacking our food. I couldn't play catch in the backyard with my kids without him stealing the ball or jumping on the kids to play with them. He even jumped on my FIL when he came over to visit and almost knocked him to the ground. I was honestly having anxiety everyday about getting out of bed and having to deal with him. I knew we needed HELP!!! Luckily, I saw a post on FB shared by a friend about Nicole's program and I began watching all of her videos on Facebook. This sounded like an answer to my prayers. After a month, with Nicole we have a completely well behaved dog. I can walk him so easily and get compliments on how well behaved he is. Even my 7 year old can walk him down the street without him pulling. He doesn't jump on family when they come over to visit. He will lay on his mat and rest while we eat. He still enjoys playing catch, but now we don't have to wrestle with him to get the ball back. It is a dream come true to be able to enjoy every day with our new pup and not have to worry about what chewed up shoe may be laying around the corner. I also love that Nicole shares videos of her training on her FB page. I loved getting to see what Grizzly was learning everyday. Nicole is also very thorough in making sure that my family had all the skills needed to continue working with Grizzly at home and making sure that he does not revert back to his old monster ways. If you are wondering if this program is worth it, I would definitely say YES!!!! Life is so much more enjoyable for everyone and I don't have to buy as many replacement shoes-LOL!! Thanks so much Nicole!!
