Nora and I are novice dog owners. Before delivery of our beloved puppy, we read books and studied on line on how to train a young dog. What this research proved to us that we needed help with the training and we wanted raise the puppy the best way possible.
Nicole came highly recommended by a local veterinarian and, after an interview, became our partner in the training of our puppy and, frankly, us.

We were blessed to bring home a Great Dane puppy, Luna, at 9 weeks, and then got doubly blessed by bringing Nicole into our home to help train her.
We started the training right away with Nicole and were happily surprised at how quickly she responded to Nicole.
Nicole worked to train US, so that we were able to communicate with Luna and so that Luna knew she could trust us and learned to respond to our requests.

I reached out to Nicole in June, 2023. She was recommended by my vet as someone that could help our dog. Dippy had been struggling with anxiety and had become aggressive with our other dog, Ollie. The aggressive episodes were becoming more frequent and I knew something had to change.
There was a lot of barking, laying on furniture and tension in the home...
