FirstBarkI went with a group of friends from work and we all loved this class! Marta is so knowledgeable and covers everything you need to know in case of an emergency. She explains and demonstrates everything and encourages her “students” to be prepared and ready to take action when needed. They also had snacks so that’s an automatic 5stars😁 -Adriana and the Yuppie dog crew

My teammate and I attented a PetTech course hosted by Marta and we very much enjoyed the experience. The quality of the materials presented was top notch and the hands-on experience tied everything together. It honestly did not feel like we had spent 8 hours together - class began at 9am and ended at 5pm (with a lunch break). Marta shared personal stories that coincided with her teaching. It was very moving and it's clear that her heart is truly invested in sharing the knowledge she's gained. We are very much looking forward to upcoming courses offered!
I attended the training on pet CPR, First Aid & Care class given by Marta De Fex, it was amazing of how much you can learn. Marta did a great job explaining how and what to do in case of any kind of emergency with your pet. We had hands on practice. This class is worth taking!! Thanks so much Marta!!
Pawsitive Relations is such a wonderful business. I learned so much from Marta in the Pet CPR & First Aid class. She is so knowledgeable, charismatic, & kind. You can just feel how passionate she is about informing people how to be better companions to our wonderful furry friends & babies. I am looking forward to learning more from her. Thank you Marta for all that you do.
