Testimonials

"Our time with Colie has been instrumental in not only strengthening the bond between me and my dog, but has improved our quality of life. Mine improved because of the assistance Oberon gives me every day as a service dog, and Oberon's because of the extensive knowledge Colie has imparted as his trainer in regards to his moods, his strengths, and helping to set him up every day for success. "

Hayley & Oberon

"Colie is so supportive, thoughtful, and very attentive to needs of the whole SD team. She is also incredibly accommodating and a trainer that I would recommend to anyone working with a service dog."

Jess & Phoenix

"Colie has been the best trainer I've had the privilege of working with. As someone who has worked with dogs for close to 15 years, I thought I knew it all. Colie has offered a refreshing calmness and awareness to my training with my current SDiT. She has been available for any questions and guidance without judgement. She has been the biggest asset to my training success with Beacon so far. We have such a strong bond because of the training she has done with not only me but with Beacon during his board and train. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!"
