Elissa helped us keep our chocolate lab Buddy! We got Buddy as a pup and about the time he turned a year old he started to develop fear aggression -- we could not have people at the house and had a hard time taking him for walks for fear something would happen. We tried other training methods/trainers -- and were lucky to find Elissa thanks to a referral. She helped us keep Buddy!!! Today, we can take him for a walk without fear of someone approaching, people come in the house and he either goes directly to his "place" or retires to the upstairs -- we even have workers going in and out of the house now and is calm. We even let him enjoy some unleash time on our property and he responds to commands and comes when called --- a totally different dog! Thank you Ellissa for helping us so he could stay happily in our lives!
