FirstBarkRisa is a fantastic trainer, taking the extra time to get through whatever issues you have. We have made huge amounts of progress with our reactive dog, and we have recommended Risa to our friends who have their own dog challenges. Her scheduling is top notch and she follows up on the things being worked on. Contact her if you need help with your dog!

Risa is fantastic! We had a new dog (Lucy) join our home in September of 2021. She came to us with a series of anxiety issues and behaviors. Risa gave us the tools to help Lucy become a happy and loving dog-sister to Lily (our other dog), and a calm, well-behaved friend to Sarah and to me.

We have told others about George and Friends and are really glad to offer this review.

My Border Colie Nina has come a long way since Risa and I started working together. I reached out to Risa because I lacked the more advanced skills to successfully training Nina post pre-school. Risa not only trained Nina, but she also took the time to train me. Sure, you have to put the work in and be coachable, but without Risa's guidance I would have been at a major loss. Thanks again Risa, it's been a wonderful experience so far!

We’ve been training with Zach now with over 5 lessons and this have been life changing for us and our two dogs. He’s been great and patient with us and our two dogs. We’ve seen so much positive change and our excited to keep continuing our training with George and friends! If your thinking about any sort of training for your dog, stop thinking and do it! The only thing we wish is we did it sooner! Highly recommend!
Zack and Resa are amazing!
