Victoria does take great pride in being a dog trainer. I would call it her job, but it's more like a deep passion. I sent Ruger, my 1.5 yr old Belgian Malinois to her for a week of board and train.

Victoria does take great pride in being a dog trainer. I would call it her job, but it's more like a deep passion. I sent Ruger, my 1.5 yr old Belgian Malinois to her for a week of board and train. He was a very reactive dog and of course a high energy dog. I needed him to not be so leash reactive and as she explained to me to see me as a leader. He is now listening to me way more than before and our walks are way calmer. More importantly, she has explained to me the lifestyle change I needed to make with my relationship with Ruger. More obedience means more freedom. I can now see the light at the end of the tunnel. Her daily report cards and videos were extremely helpful and detailed. Never would I have thought that is what I would get. I would highly recommend Victoria for your dog training. I would not hesitate.

Victoria, was very easy to work with. You can tell she takes pride in her line of work, as well as the abundance of knowledge she has about dogs. We were impressed with the various training lessons we had for our high energy chocolate lab puppy. And we also highly recommend the 2 week dog training program that was offered. Our Stella came back a new and improved girl who is now well behaved and mannered. We highly recommend her services.

My puppy Ziggy is 7 months old. He had no behavior issues but I needed help training him. Before he went to Victoria he would bark for hours, pull the leash, not come inside when I called. I wanted to get on top of his training so that I could stop these things before they got worse. Victoria is absolutely AMAZING, we started with lessons for a month or so then he went to training camp. I cannot believe the change in my dog. I am so happy he comes when he is called. I do not have to worry about him ignoring me. He walks so well on the leash and he is just amazing after training. People stop and ask me who his trainer is because he has become that amazing. Someone even wanted to buy him at a garage sale last weekend. I love that I can bring him to farmers market, Lowes, out for lunch etc and he goes along with the flow. He fits into my life and is just the best ever and he would not have been like this unless he trained with Victoria. I cannot recommend her more. She is such a GAME CHANGER for your relationship with your dog. I would get 10 dogs if she would train them all. HIRE HER

I am so grateful for Victoria and From The Heart Dog Service. My dog Walter White is a 6 year old boxer. He went through formal training at 2 years old, but has always struggled with anxiety and reactivity. He went to camp with Victoria to work through these issues. In addition to having the BEST week, my boy was safe and worked through his anxiety in many new environments, including a trip to the river that he absolutely LOVED. The feedback from Victoria via the daily report cards and the turnover session was invaluable, and what I think sets her program apart from other services. I now have a record of clear instructions to refer back to if I find Walter and myself slipping into old habits. I highly recommend Victoria and From The Heart Dog Service.

My dog was extremely reactive around other dogs. After a 2-week boot camp she is much more manageable on walks and other stressful situations. Victoria provided me with the tips and direction I needed to guide my dog down the right path. We’ve still got work to do but now we both know what we need to do to get there. I highly recommend From The Heart Dog Training and Victoria for all your training needs!
