Dottie

“I came to Lydia looking for some help with my 2 1/2 year old Aussiedoodle, Dottie. My goals were to work on her general obedience, nervousness around kids, and to teach her to settle down in the house. After going through Lydia's program, Dottie has made huge strides!

She is well behaved on walks (on leash and off) and she is able to settle quietly at home and in busy places (even with kids running around!). She is less reactive to passing dogs and to people coming to the door. After our joint lessons, I feel more confident and prepared to guide her and hold her accountable. I can already feel an improvement in our relationship. She listens to me more intently and enjoys the guidance. This is going to hugely impact both of our lives.

Lydia also makes training a fun experience for both dog and owner! Dottie ran to the door every morning upon her arrival, and even got excited when I mentioned Lydia's name. Lydia is timely, communicates well, and welcomes questions. She is a wealth of knowledge. I learned so much about my dog and general canine behavior that will help me be a better dog owner. I highly recommend Lydia as a trainer and can't thank her enough!”
