Lisa S. Has been a wonderful guide as we grow with Angus through his adventurous puppy stage. She is a fabulous listener to both humans and dogs, responding with gentle guidance, demonstrations, and affirmations. I highly recommend working Lisa at Hippie Dog for any help understanding a beloved dog.

Hippie Dog and Inga are an excellent choice. I am so grateful that Inga is very experienced, knowledgeable and passionate about helping dogs and their human companions. Inga only uses positive training methods, the dogs are happy, the dog owner is happy, the training is well organized and in my experience everything flows smoothly. This is easier than I expected. I see why this is called hippy dog, but I like to call it happy dog :-) because this training doesn't involve any stress for you or your dog! Happy dog, happy you! Hippie dog has different classes, I recommend all of them! This will also help you create a positive bond with your best friend while remaining the alpha.

Inga is very helpful, and knowledgeable. Training dogs is her art and she is very passionate about what she does. I've trained with her, and watched as she spends time with animals and their owners helping build a better bond and relationship between dogs and humans. I highly recommend anyone looking for quality training that is all possitive reinforcement based! You will get the results, but you have to be willing to put in the work.

I've worked with Hippie Dog for years and can't recommend it enough. The first time was 1:1 with Inga after years of the same issues with my previous dog. She gave me such helpful and straightforward advice, she changed our relationship (and my dog's bad habits) for the rest of his and our life together. When it came time to get my new pup I wanted a rescue so I worked directly with Inga to find the right fit for me. She came with me to view potential dogs and steered me from making some possible poor choices. Super helpful! I LOVE my new dog. After I got the new pup, he and I did Hippie Dog's group training sessions and I was really happy with the staff and their great dog advice. The techniques are effective and I got the specific attention my dog and I needed even though it was a group class. If you want positive, reward vs. fear based training and a great relationship with your dog, I recommend Hippie Dog!

Meet Fern. She is a rescue who would not come near us for 3 months. Lisa worked with her &us. She now goes for walks, plays with toys and even learned how to bark. Just today I was told what a remarkable change they see in her "she is a real dog'
