FirstBarkStephanie was so excellent training our dog Cooper! She had amazing tips for us as owners that we use on the daily. Our dog learned tons of new things from her. I would definitely recommend her for all types of dogs! :)

We met Steph through a local Rescue, Southern Nevada Animal Rescue League. Steph has assisted in the training of our current foster, Paco, who previously had resource guarding tendencies and was surrendered by their owner. Steph has been very helpful, knowledgeable and a great resource throughout the process. She has assisted into properly introducing Paco into a three dog household, basic training techniques and everything else dog related. We appreciate all the assistance and her willingness to travel and work with our schedule!
