About Lisa's group classes:

I just wanted to drop you a line and say thank you for everything.  Tom and I really love your class.  I don't know if I would have as much confidence with my new pup if it wasn't for you.  I love how nice and gentle it is- and how quickly Ramona catches on.  Anyways, I wanted to write because I wanted to make sure you know how helpful you've been.  Having someone lead me through puppydom makes me feel good and sure of myself- and know that our pup is starting her life in a positive way. I'm happy for your baby too- what an awesome, patient, encouraging mom he gets!

The thing I liked the most was the applicability of the techniques that could be extended to many other instances of daily communication and the fun teaching style.

Lisa had a great attitude and made me and everyone else comfortable.
Ben L.

My dog calmed down a lot, became much more focused and the reinforcement of Stay throughout the course was a great help.
Tatjana A.

I liked the small number of dogs which allowed for Lisa's close attention.

About Lisa's private lessons:

Great, practical suggestions. It was very evident Lisa has much experience and love of dogs. My dog loved her right away - quite unusual for him. Also, I appreciated the quick email follow-up reviewing everything we discussed.
Vicky B.

Lisa made certain that I understand why her techniques worked which made it easier to understand my dog's motivation.

Erik was great at answering all of our questions and so patient. We thank you for all your help!! We will be visiting you again soon!

What we liked most about the class was Erik's friendly demeanor and his focus. The class was very well organized and run. We loved the class and will re-enroll with our other dog soon!

About Erik's private lessons:

My two-year-old dog had been through puppy obedience training, but both she and I needed a refresher course. We'd never mastered loose leash walking, and she had started to be aggresive toward other dogs on our walks. Erik's one-on-one training sessions helped me learn techniques to correct these behaviors in a gentle, positive way. My dog showed remarkable improvement after our sessions, and now I know how to move forward to achieve the behaviors I want!
Amy J. and her dog Maize

I just began my second series of training sessions with Erik and am very pleased with the results to date. After an unexpected delay of eight weeks between classes Erik was able to get my dog back into the swing of things rather quickly and more importantly remotivate me to want to work with my dog on a daily basis. It is incredibly rewarding to see him focus on me and his commands. Erik has not only provided a great deal of patience but more importantly has been able to show me successful tools to use that work with our schedule. I look forward to continued progress and a happy and relaxed dog.
Stacey B. and her dog Beau

We got our pit bull mix, Fiona, after she was removed from a home because of abuse and neglect. She was extremely fearful and aggressive, and she would not let anyone but me or my boyfriend touch her or even make eye contact. Amazingly, Erik was able to pet her and have her eating from his hand by our second training session. At our third lesson, Fiona was wagging her tail and didn't bark or growl when he came to the door. Fiona has made tremendous strides in her reactivity toward strangers and friends as well. We couldn't be happier with the results so far.

About Charmaine's private lessons:

I would highly recommend Charmaine Anthony as a trainer. She is a very pleasant individual whose affection for animals is obvious by her actions. She was timely, flexible, and able to seemlessly incorporate our energetic three year olds in the training process where appropriate. Charmaine listened as we expressed our needs for the dog's training and was able to develop a program that was individually geared towards our dog and our family. She followed up each training session with an email that outlined everything we had worked on and key points for us to focus on as we continued our training at home. Her knowledge of animal behavior and training tools helped us to incorporate a successful training program for our dog. She is very insightful and has many recomendations on how to gain the most benefit from each training session. Our three year olds have gained a high level of self esteem with their abilitiy to get Tyrone to sit, lay down, and come. Charmaine even followed up about a month after our training was over just to see how things were going and if we needed any assistance or had any questions. Collins Canine is very fortunate to have Charmaine Anthony as a trainer on their staff and any family would benefit from having her work with their dog.
Julie F. and her dog Tyrone

Charmaine was one of the best trainers I have encountered. She was always the ultimate professional. I loved her relationship with Woodroe and envied her ability to connect and communicate with him so easily. I would recommend her in a heart beat!
