Crystal has been helping me with a foster dog who needs A LOT of work. She really has given me a lot of direction and hope about where our foster dog can end up. I would totally recommend Crystal and Ruff House.

I just finished the 6 week Basic Obedience Course with my one year old Springer Spaniel. Crystal is a great trainer. She is an excellent communicator and she is patient and understanding when your dog is refusing to cooperate. The class sizes are small so you get individualized attention plus she is more than willing to answer any questions or help with any problems you are having whether they pertain to what you are learning at the time or not. The training that my spaniel and, just as importantly, myself received has given us a solid foundation to build on. We just loved the class and will probably take more in the future!

I have had nothing but great experiences with RuffHouse and Crystal! Both the private and group training have been incredibly beneficial and have helped me to build a stronger relationship with my dog. I have also learned how to better communicate what I want with him which has led to more desirable behaviors. The thing I have been the most impressed with and highly recommend is the snake and toad avoidance training! My dog is fairly anxious and I was unsure if the training would stick with him, but recently we’ve happened upon not one, but two, rattlesnakes while in the yard and on walks. He immediately backed away and started barking before I had even seen or heard the snakes which were at least 5 ft away from us if not more. I am so incredibly thankful that what could have been bad situations were avoided because of good training. Thank you RuffHouse!!
