My husband and I adopted a 3 month old puppy, she did not come from the best of circumstances. Within a week we knew we were going to need a dog trainer. Picking a dog trainer is no easy task, so I threw myself into all reviews of all the dog trainers in our area and I found Justine. Justine is patient and intuitive. She taught us skills and techniques that changed our household. She gave us and all 3 of our dogs the tools we needed to be a better, happier, and a more cohesive unit. Justine helped us solve problems related to potty training, separation anxiety, confrontation between our new puppy and our other dogs, hyperactivity, guarding, and more. Justine has changed our lives and allowed us to comfortably have company over. When we hired Justine, we didn’t just get an amazing dog trainer, but we all gained a friend.
Justine has been absolutely wonderful. She is calm down to earth yet direct. I am so happy to get in contact with her. I was at the give up stage with my two dogs. One dog Reactive and one dog we dubbed the bully. They are both on their way to being better more obedient dogs. She has given us great tools to further their's and our success. She helped not only the dog but my trust in them as well especially being around other dogs. I absolutely recommend Justine!
WOW, where to even start!!?? Justine has LITERALLY gotten myself and my family out of doggie jail. After I had my son my dog Bailey got EXTREME separation anxiety to the point where I left for Walmart one day and she pushed the screen out of an window (that was barely cracked put she pushed it up) and jumped out and disappeared for four hours we had to hunt her down to find her! She then continued to completely destroy our house! (See attached photos). Anytime we left it wasn’t IF she was going to destroy something it was WHAT will she destroy. The stress and anxiety made us spend tons of money of dog sitters or just not even leave the house unless someone stayed back. We would never get rid of Bailey but it was becoming expensive, depression and exhausting. Anytime we left she also violently shook, drooled, panted, paced and within five minutes had something destroyed. SO we finally had enough and hired Justine to help with her behavior. Two months later of spending my summer being home with her or paying someone to watch her (dog jail) BUT having Justine comeover with lessons, zoom lessons and training homework we did it ALL. I CAN FINALLY SAY I left today to get coffee and this dog DID NOT BUDGE. She sat in the window and stared. No anxiety, no shaking, NO destruction!!! I am completely STUNNED! Thank you Justine for getting us out of dog jail!!! The training part can be tough, you have to be relentless and consistent with what Justine tells you to do but IT WORKS!!! We are soooo grateful!!!
I have had such a good experience with Justine! I have two dogs both over 50 lbs and both are reactive to other dogs (one doesn’t like them and the other gets too excited). I knew I needed help but didn’t know where to go considering other trainers thought my dogs should be on anxiety medication or should be sent away to a 4 week program. Justine on the other hand actually took the time to work with me so I could learn how to handle them. I can honestly say things are so much better than when we started and they have made so much progress. I definitely recommend dog training with Justine, she just knows how to fix whatever issue you may be having with your dog, she’s seriously a dog whisperer!
Justine did a remarkably great job in the training of my two dogs Stella and Rocky. In the past 6 weeks the dogs have come a long way and are much calmer and well behaved. She also taught me how to better understand my dogs as well . And make me a better responsible dog owner. Without her help I would not have been able to achieve what we have with these two dogs😃😃 I would highly recommend her expertise if you are looking for a good trainer. Jeff Blundon
