Servicing Essex, VT & Surrounding areas

Do you want your dog to...

...Walk on a loose leash?

...listen to you?

...greet people nicely?

Are you experiencing...

  • ...disappointment because you want to bring your dog places, but they pull on the leash?

  • ...frustration from your dog not listening and blowing you off?

  • ...lost with what to do with your new puppy, are they nipping, jumping, or struggling with potty training?

  • ...embarrassed because your dog jumps on guests or gets too excited and doesn't leave them alone?

  • ...confusion because your dog knows obedience at home, but loses it when they get to a new place?

  • ...anger because your dog is destructive, chewing on things they aren't supposed to like furniture, shoes, ect?

I believe you deserve to have a well behaved dog!

I have helped many frustrated dog owners from puppies who whine in their crates to dogs who pull on the leash so hard you're afraid they'll hurt you or themselves, heck I've been you!

I don't just help your dog, I help you understand why your dog behaves the way they do and how to alter it. I have many happy owners who I continue to support today!

Testimonial

"I knew from the very beginning that I would need a trainer to help me with Rosie. YouTube videos were not going to cut it when it came to a high energy chocolate Lab from the wilds of Montgomery. Christina's name came up time and time again "she did great with Webster", "Loki is a completely different dog thanks to her." So, I spent the money and sent her away. After a week went by, I realized that the work had only just begun.I began to realize that being a Trainer has as much to do with the behavior of the Dog as it does with the behavior of the handler, and that is where I think Christina shows how gifted she is. Watching for rewardable canine behavior while watching for correct Handler behavior in such a way as to allow a bond to be formed between Dog and Handler. I compare it to landing an F-18 on a pontoon boat.But she does it, with grace, patience, and humor. With insight gained from experience and continuous improvement. We are grateful for the time Christina has spent with us and we honor that time by continuing to work on skills she has shown us."

“Nothing but good words for Christina, and her services!I brought my Millie Girl here for board and train services with honestly no expectation (you would just have to know Millie to understand). I was blown away with the dog I left with. Millie left with several great qualities that I never thought she would have. There is follow through on your part when you bring your pup home but Christina sets a GREAT foundation that is almost fool proof with work on your part.Christina is very available through email if you have any questions through the process.I recommend this service to anyone that is wanting to see positive changes with your pup!Staff at this facility is very loving toward your pup as well, you can tell they all take their job seriously as well as taking very great care of your furry friend!I bring her name to anyone that I ever hear talking about dog training services!"

“I can’t even express how thankful I am for Christina’s help with my dog luna! Luna has always been an anxious and nervous dog. With the help of Christina, Luna and I learned to work together. Luna was not a confident dog and would react to everything out of lack of confidence. Christina was able to help build Luna’s confidence and help her overcome many of her fears. Luna went into training unable to walk on any flooring or in any new spaces. within a few weeks of our training with Christina, Luna walked through an entire store with automatic sliding doors and weird flooring without pancaking herself to the floor. I am so thankful for Christina and her training. she has helped turn Luna into a completely new dog who is confident and is able to enjoy walks with other dogs and able to visit new places..."

"We got Axl (German Shepherd) as a puppy and I knew training would be a must. I wanted him to be sociable when he grew up. I researched places and when I saw that my friends used her and also asking them I took Axl to The Bed & Biscuit for training. Axl was enrolled in the My Best Friend program. When he got home my expectations were quite large but with working with Christina and going to the Monday night classes Axl is becoming quite successful. Being a part of the training gives me more of a connection with Axl. I also was a non-believer of kennels/cages but now I would recommend them it helps making the training less stressful for both you and the dog."
