Lisa of Charlottesville, VA is the owner of a young beagle mix named Oliver that was making it very difficult for her to walk him and his cocker spaniel brother because of his reactivity to other dogs. Living in a lovely residential neighborhood meant going for a walk without seeing another dog was almost impossible. Oliver would bark, pull, lunge and lose his mind when he saw other dogs. With a little obedience training and a lot of dedication and consistency on the part of Lisa, Oliver became a new dog. Not only is he able to walk by other dogs calmly, being attentive to Lisa instead of the dog, but Oliver is listening and behaving better inside their home as well. Read what Lisa had to say about working with us:

Heather is great! Oliver was not comfortable with other dogs and he controlled me. Today, I can take Oliver for a walk feeling more comfortable and in control. Oliver is more relaxed and can enjoy the walk instead of being defensive and guarded. In the home Oliver is getting better each day with his place command. Thanks to Heather, walking with Oliver is pleasurable and not a chore.”
