Our dog Cabbage attended board and train for a week and the experience was overwhelmingly positive for both her and us. We met with Christine ahead of time so she could get to know Cabbage and understand some of our main training goals. The week we were gone Christine worked with Cabbage every day using positive reinforcement techniques only. She gave us daily updates on what they worked on and she also sent us videos as well so we could better understand the process.

My experience thus far with Christine has been phenomenal. I am an experienced dog owner, but I haven't trained a puppy in over 15 years-- and not since having kids and getting a more intense job. I needed help! I called Christine, and before even talking about working together, she troubleshooted some of my challenges with me, including giving me a technique to discourage puppy from chewing on my children.
