Testimonial
I had such a wonderful experience with a recent client that I could not resist giving them a testimonial.  Don Nahnsen, Jan Madrone and their dog, Shelby, started working with me in January 2013.  Shelby pulled on leash, barked and lunged at other dogs, and barked at outside stimuli when in the house and in the car.  Don and Jan showed up on time for every private lesson, took notes, listened to my suggestions, practiced, and emailed me about their progress and where they still needed help.  Because of their commitment and devotion to Shelby, Don and Jan achieved their goals within four months.  I could not be happier.  Working with Don and Jan validated that I am living my purpose in helping people to have fulfilling lives with their dogs.
