I’ve been working with Keisha, Bailey, & Valerie since early December of last year. Me and Mr. Boone here received a sponsorship that they personally held with Taylor Brewer to assist in service dog training, and I can’t express how much of an amazing experience it has been! They not only help guide you through how to go about training itself but they make sure that you and your trainee are given individual attention to ensure everything is running smoothly, questions are answered, and you guys are on the well taken care of! Before I started the program i had assumed it would just be routine training on what to do and what not to do but they have gone above and beyond. Not only making sure that we are on the right track but providing encouragement and patience to us both as we take on this new experience together. You don’t just get a training team you get a support group of people who genuinely care about your progress and outcome. So thankful God led me to these amazing people and their phenomenal program! 🤎

Keisha and Bailey have been awesome with training our pup and teaching us how to reinforce what he learned during the board and stay. We go on Saturday’s to train our dog around different social settings. He follows a schedule and listens much better now. He is very stubborn so whatever techniques they use, work!
