Me and my boy, Bobby had the best time working with and learning from Verena. Verena is dedicated to learning, constantly evolved our training strategy for a difficult case. We learned so much in our time with her and we are looking forward to working together in the future. Thank you

We just completed the Beginner Puppy Class series and couldn't be happier. The information they provided prior to entering the class was thoughtful and helpful - setting us and our puppy up for success. Jamie did an amazing job teaching the class. The information was clear and and was also available on line (added bonus). Instructors supported each week in class as we built skills to help teach our puppy. We've taken classes elsewhere and this by far was the best. Highly recommend!

We initially came to Noble Woof for day training to help keep our German Shepherd puppy stimulated and work on basic manners. Not long after getting her into group training, she started showing signs of being reactive toward other dogs (lunging, barking, growling) within the day training setting. We started to also experience it when we took her on walks. She would see another dog and absolutely lose it. It was new behavior, and it was so stressful! I was feeling pretty deflated and worried that I was doing something wrong with her training. However, Brie immediately reached out to me and helped me understand this new daunting stage we had entered in puppyhood: Adolescence! She then helped me navigate next steps for how to support our puppy and set her up for success. We shifted our pup from group training to individual training to help focus on her reactivity before it got worse. We went ahead and did the Ghost Pepper package so that we could maximize training with multiple sessions as well as coaching, which helped us reinforce her new skills at home on a weekly basis. And has it done wonders! We are now in a place where we can walk our dog, take her to the park and nobody melts down! We just went to the park and came across another reactive dog who approached her lunging, barking, and growing about 5 feet away from us and our pup (now 10 months) didn't even flinch. She just looked up at me and then kept sniffing her way through the park. No doubt, we have to put the work in on the regular to reinforce everything Noble Woof is teaching her, but that is WAY less work than trying to walk a reactive, fearful dog, especially a German Shepherd on a daily basis. We couldn't be more pleased with her progress and the results we've seen after training with Brie and Micki for the last few months. We've decided to add more training sessions to continue working on basic manners now ...
Valerie was patient and had so much helpful knowledge to share. We had a wonderful experience working with her.
