Google Review:
Paige from "Dog Training by Vanessa" is an amazing trainer!!!! I did the 4 week board and train with her for my 6 month old puppy I had just got from the pound. Every week he made so many improvements. I got daily videos from Paige of what her and my puppy were working on that day. I get so many compliments on how well behaved he is everywhere I go. It brings such a smile to my face because before the board and train it was very stressful to take him anywhere. Not anymore! He goes everywhere with me. I highly recommend Paige for any training needs. She turned my little terror into a angel. Lol... It's the truth!!!

"Vanessa and Sam were great with my Lily Bean. I had been working with another trainer without results.In just 4 weeks I see such a difference in Lily. Not only did they know how to train my adolescent dog, you could tell how much they enjoyed working with her. Thank. you so much!"

Paige, Sam, and Vanessa have been amazing with our rescue puppy Luna. Their approach is well balanced in supporting both the fun loving animal and the less trainable humans to ensure success. You can’t find a better group to help make your K9 a well mannered member of your family.
