Cannot say enough great things about Alicia and Into the Woods Canine! We started working with her a year ago after moving to Hingham and she immediately bonded with our 7yo rescue pittie, Rosie. Alicia was so patient with Rosie, getting to know her personality and figuring out the best dogs to pair her with for hikes (rosie can be socially awkward). She also muzzle trained Rosie so she is now such a confident, happy, playful dog whenever she’s out with her pack. We’ve also used Alicia for boarding services and fully trust her to keep Rosie safe and happy.

Our dog Beau has been going for hikes with into the woods for about a year, we cannot say enough good things about our experience. He is so excited to go and comes home exhausted. His training on hikes has allowed us to take him with our family on hikes off leash, with confidence, which we all enjoy. Highly recommended any services provided by into the woods!

Alicia and her team have been amazing. Our dog started training with Alicia around eight months old. She lacked confidence and was very skittish. She’s now 2.5 and has worked with Alicia consistently the entire time. Riley loves the group hikes with other dogs. It’s been excellent for her confidence. My wife and I highly recommend Alicia and her services.
