Our two-year-old husky/shepherd mix, Indie, spent over 2 weeks with Lisa and Willie in late January and he came back a changed dog! He's more calm and secure and of course, much more well-behaved. I actually held off on writing this review for a while because I wanted to see if Indie's behavior would continue on after he returned to us and it has! We have been working with him almost every day to continue to keep his skills sharp and to help him become more and more obedient so he can go on more outings with us.
Lisa did a great job working with Indie and I appreciated her firm but loving style with him. I felt like she treated him like one of her own dogs and that made it easier to be apart from him for so long.
The hand-off training session when we got Indie back was great. We learned so much about how to interact with him and reinforce the good training he learned. And it's a relief to know that we can call them anytime for advice or "touch ups".
I'll admit that I was really nervous about sending my "baby" away for 2 whole weeks to live with strangers. I only managed to do it after reading so many good reviews online but it was still a little scary. If you're like me and are nervous, I would encourage you to do it. Lisa and Willie will take great care of your dog and you'll be so happy with the results. And if you're a wimp like me, you can ask them to send you videos and pictures every few days so that you feel better. :-)
