FirstBarkI would HIGHLY recommend Sonya, we recently got a Goldendoodle and training him was a nightmare for us. He is very strong willed and does not like to listen. We are currently still in classes with Sonya however within the first couple of classes there is already a MAJOR improvement in his behavior. Sonya’s techniques are worth every dollar!!!

Sonya is amazing. Me and sushi took 2 courses with her so far, she addresses all concerns and we loved the way she ran her class! Would definitely recommend
Sonya is very easy going and helpful. She worked with both our dogs .
Sonya did wonders for my very timid girl Tina. Tina was adopted and I was not sure she would ever reintegrate until the civilized world. We put Tina in Sonya's immersive program and she came a well mannered and (more) confident lady. I highly recommend this service to anyone that is struggling.
Very detailed and I like being trained as well as the dog.
