Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Do you offer services for dog-to-dog aggression?
Yes, I absolutely do fix dog to dog aggression. I often times find the dog is not aggressive but reactive instead. My dogs will be able to tell the difference if the dog is aggressive, reactive, or sometimes just nervous or excited.

You trained my Chihuahua a couple of years ago to stop trying to bite people. That was awesome. I called you a couple of months later and you explained the house breaking for the hard to housebreak dog. Can I still come to class?
Yes. Classes for my clients are life long. If you have a specific or new issue please call me. No extra charge for extra help.

Gwen has been amazing! She has trained our last 5 dogs. She has taught us so much and helped us regain control of our dogs. Gwen and her team of trainers are so knowledgeable and helpful.

She fixed a few problems we were having with our pups in one day! It was amazing to witness. Following her instructions, asking questions, and clarifying as follow-up is key. We now take our dogs to her weekly training sessions which is including in the training package we paid for up front. Our pups get a lot of support, as do we, it is making a huge difference. Gwen is honest and straight forward, she shows you and tells you what needs to be done to fix your issues. If you can't handle the truth I suppose you might feel badly about your pup ownership, but it's about doing it right for your fur baby, not about you! One thing we are still struggling with is food aggression we have with 1 of our 4. It is still an ongoing process, but she keeps encouraging and reminding us of the correct steps. We didn't pay her to be our best friend or blow smoke up our butts, we hired her to keep us from losing an aggressive dog and help curb negative behaviors beginning in our other pups. If you want your pup to be very well trained and safe, she's the one to turn to.
Horrible experience in every way. This woman should be out of business. She promised on-going support and training and calls herself a “behaviorist”…instead her intervention was a shock collar. I paid $900 cash for a consult where she smoked the entire time and abused my dog with her shock collar. I will be reporting her to the Better Business Bureau.
