“Prepped and ready for Overseas”
“Toni has been so helpful with our dog, Lina, a little Staffy cross. Lina has had some anxiety ever since we adopted her some years ago, and Toni assisted us with some relaxation training for her. Toni also helped with crate training preparing Lina for her flight in a big overseas move to the UK. Toni's love for dogs comes through really clearly in her training; she was always very encouraging, observant and insightful with her suggestions. It was a pleasure working with her and Lina loved the training sessions too.”
