Ben

Hi,

This is the story of Ben.  He is a black shepard/lab/dane mix, about 110 lbs.  I adopted Ben from a shelter when he was 11 months old.   It was his second time there.  I don’t know what he had been through but he didn’t know how to play.  Jumped and chewed on people and was very aggressive to other dogs.  The first trainer I took him to would not put him in  a class with other dogs because of his size and aggressive behavior.  After several private classes she advised me that he was totally untrainable and I should consider putting him down.  She said I would have to keep him in a fenced area and away from other people and animals.

THEN I was referred to Lisa.  She took Ben into a class with other dogs and she has worked wonders with hem.  She would not give up on him and helped me through some really rough times.  I am so happy to say now Ben is everything I wanted him to be. I can take hem anyplace with me.  We go shopping, to the park, and to craft shows.  He is very friendly, people can pet hem and he even plays with other dogs.  I can even let him play with my 3 yr old grandson.  If we hadn’t found Lisa, I probably would not have him.  Angels are all around us!

Thank you Lisa.

To Whom It May Concern:

 

I am writing this letter on behalf of Lisa Skidd.  We had the pleasure of meeting Lisa approximately 7 months ago as we embarked on a mission to train our 6 month old Newfoundland puppy,  Amadeus.  It was love a first sight.  Almost immediately, Ami felt the love and compassion that Lisa shared.  That was our indicator that Lisa was the trainer for us.  Beyond her compassion she is extremely knowledgeable and informative as it relates to her training skills.  She worked diligently not only to train Ami, but to train myself and my husband to become more disciplined with our pet.  Working with Ami was a challenge as he had 6 months of some bad habits to break and we accomplished most.  Still working on some and getting better!

 

Additionally, Lisa has been extremely supportive of our personal needs.  Both my husband and I travel frequently and are in meed of someone that we feel most comfortable with taking care of our dog.  Lisa has graciously accepted Ami as an extension of her family where he will live with her when we are on travel.  He loves her children and they love him back.  It is a win-win for all.

 

Lisa offers me peace of mind when training and caring for Ami and there is nothing more important to both my husband and I.  I would highly recommend Lisa as a trainer and a friend to all.

 

Kind regards,

Annamarie Alleva and Anadeus

To Whom It May Concern:

Lisa Skidd is a wonderful trainer.  She’s calm, cool and collected no matter what the dogs and the people are up to.  I’ve seen her work wonders with quite a few dogs.  I’ve seen dogs that were unfriendly to other dogs become very nice with other dogs.  I’ve seen dogs and puppies learn basic obedience commands over the course of 8 weeks.  I’ve seen happy and proud dog owners who have been through her classes.

My first experience with Lisa was more than a year ago.  I signed up for on o f her basic obedience classes with my 2 year old rescue.  My dog and I enjoyed every class.  We did our homework each week and were very happy with our progress.

Upon completing the basic obedience class, my dog and I joined one of her more advanced classes fr dogs that understand the basics.  We’ve been in the advanced class for more than a year because it’s a fun class for the dogs and their people.

When I brought a puppy home I immediately signed her up for Lisa’s puppy class.  It was a very good experience for an 8 week old puppy.  I was surprised and delighted by how much a young puppy can learn.

Of course I signed up my puppy for Lisa’s basic obedience class as soon as she finished her puppy class.

Now my puppy, my rescue and I attend Lisa’s advanced class.  Lisa is very good at keeping the class fun and interesting for all the people and dogs that have been in the class for a long time.

I highly recommend Lisa as a dog trainer for dogs and people of all ages and level of experience.

Sincerely,
Vikki Calvano

Wrigley and Turner

Dear Lisa:

I just wanted to drop you a short note to thank you for all of your time and effort with Wrigley and Turner.  Both dogs have improve greatly since they started training with you.  They obviously were very comfortable while in your home, because they now get so excited when we enter your neighborhood or I tell them we are going to see you.

The most remarkable turnaround has definitely been with Wrigley.  Somehow, you took a distrustful, aggressive dog that had been abused and abandoned when we got him, and turned him into a very trusting and loving pet.  He is so much calmer and responds to all corrections on the first try.

Thank you so much for simplifying our home life by making the dogs more calm and controllable.   There is no way that we could have done it without you.

Sincerely,
Melodie Hodges
