Dogs relate to Nan immediately so they learn quickly. They sense that she knows what she is doing when she starts training, and they are comfortable and happy to cooperate. A very important part of her training is teaching the owner proper techniques so the training continues after her lessons! I highly recommend her‼️

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
I have a 10 week old, Chihuahua puppy. I have never had a puppy before so I don't know how to train her. How much would you charge to train her? Also, do you train for an allert dog? I have a condition that makes me weak, and she has come to me the two times I have had that weakness. She came to me before I realized I was weak. She kept jumping on my legs trying to make me sit down. I did not know what she was doing till the second time. She is so smart. How much do you charge for what you do?

Nan is Like a dog whisper. She has an amazing connection to understand your dog.
Nan is knowledgeable and an excellent dog trainer. She visits the library and does programs for the local kids. The kids love her!!
Very unhappy with this trainer. Do not recommend.
Nan told me some tips for what I needed as my dog needed remedial potty training & she felt he required training @ home. My dog is an adult. I respected the fact that she didn't just want my money.
