FirstBarkOn the Spot is incredible with dogs. She is kind and gentle and was flexible with our family’s needs. Our dog learned quickly with Lisa was always so excited to see her. I recommend her to anyone with a pup!

I have a problem with my puppy, sometimes it seems like she gets the idea that she's gonna do what she wants to do, when she wants to do it and absolutely refuses to obey any commands I give her. (At least the ones I have made an attempt to teach)
That sounds like a typical pup. Busy and easily distracted. Always make certain your pup truly understands what you want before doing any type of correction. We would be happy to help with one of our highly successful In-home Training Programs.

There is a service dog trainer. I'm have done some group classes with her and from what I have picked up from other conversation I think she would want to meet you and your pup. You can visit their website for for information and contacts https://spotdogtraining.com

Lisa did an absolutely wonderful job with me and my new little puppy… she is very knowledgeable and read my puppy well! I feel lucky to have had her and her expertise with Henry🐶

I acquired a very smart German Shepherd that’s about a year old. We just couldn’t get on the same sheet of music in responding to commands. In just a few sessions with Lisa Smith Kai and I became a good team. He learned to obey commands and I learned how to properly give the commands and when to reward him. A dog that would pull me while walking on a leash now walks by my side unaffected by what goes on around him regardless where we are. I highly recommend Lisa and her system of training. She provides training, follow up literature, and is willing to provide additional assistance via text or phone.
Lisa is an awesome dog trainer. We had an amazing experience with her. She is extremely knowledgeable and provided us with the skills and knowledge to continue the training with our puppy. She gave us handouts for additional resources to use. She is an excellent trainer and fun to work with. We all have a lot of respect for her, especially Eve, our puppy. We will miss her!
Lisa was amazing training our puppy and helping us learn how to handle her and continue training at home! Would highly recommend!!!
