Wow-I can't speak highly enough about Denise! She has such a calm demeanor and positive energy that my dogs just love her. She is great at teaching this old dog (oops mom) new tricks. I am not the most coordinated in learning to perform all the needed steps right off the bat but Denise is very patient and an excellent teacher. After the initial consult, I was brimming from ear to ear to see my Golden pup learn so quickly. She will teach you how to be the pack leader. She also helped me to pick out needed equipment and fit my pup with dog boots as well as all of the basic commands including leash walking. If you want the best then call Denise and you can see for yourself why everyone raves about her!
