Ms. Erin has been amazing with Ruger and my goals to help him become a therapy dog! She’s definitely gone above and beyond as a trainer in regards to her assistance and direction when we’ve needed it. Including the other dog we have and more importantly the ones we’ve temporarily fostered. If there’s one trainer out there that I trust whole heartedly with my dogs or any others and particularly their training….. she’s the one.

There are so many things to be said about Erin, so much that I could write an entire book almost simply on how much she has done for me and my dog Hank. When I first brought Hank to Erin he was ten months old, pushing one hundred pounds, and had almost zero basic training or leash work. He had various bad habits, including using me as his personal chew toy and playing with my hoodies or sleeves like it was tug-o-war where I would literally hit the floor and be dragged across it. He was also a quarantine puppy with minimal socialization. Taking him out in pet friendly places resulted in him hiding behind me, barking, and bristling at people in fear and stress. After even the first two weeks with Erin teaching us he started to listen to me better both at home and in public. Within the first three months he was able to heel at a walk and respected me and my space far more. I've been with Erin for nearly a year now and honestly she has changed my life and Hanks life for the better. He heels on walks, wants people to say hello to him and pet him, will down stay so I can walk away and get something, has stopped using me as a personal chew toy, and comes to me when called even if he's across my yard off leash. Without Erin's help I would have had to rehome my best friend, as he is now one hundred and forty pounds of puppy and would have been way too much for me to handle without someone or him getting hurt. I will forever be grateful for Erin, and to me she is like family at this point. Hank still has a little way to go, but there is no one I would rather have help us on our journey of connection, respect, and companionship.
