Tilly

“Lydia is a fantastic trainer and achieves truly impressive results, both with dogs and with their owners. Our fluffy, bouncy, overly friendly 6-month-old puppy was transformed during her Thrive Program with Lydia into a calmer, disciplined, confident dog, still retaining the goofy, affectionate personality we love in her. Equally important to Lydia’s incredible work with Tilly was her coaching sessions to train us so we can do what’s needed to maintain Tilly's training and allow us to have an even better relationship with our pup.

The things that set Lydia above other dog trainers are many. Her training is fully customized and one-on-one, both with the dog and with the dog’s humans. This is not a cookie-cutter approach, and Lydia is a master at adjusting to everyone’s needs with a fun, positive approach that helps her clients learn quickly and at their own paces. Her approach is so far beyond traditional training sessions or “puppy training classes,” it’s hard to convey. Lydia's extensive knowledge of dog behavior anchors her approach, so whether your dog is friendly or aggressive, timid or confident, obedient or stubborn – or even if you're some of those, too – she knows how to help. You'll be amazed at how she can turn your home into a "peaceable kingdom" where people and dogs live comfortably and happily together. That's what we have now with Tilly, thanks to Lydia. I would never even consider trying another approach. Thank you, Lydia!”
