“As a puppy, I was at a loss on how to train my difficult dog. Unfortunately, I opted for a trainer who used an e-collar, despite my reservations and it soon became clear that this method did not set us up for a successful, safe, and happy life. Our first meeting with Jessica was transformative, to say the least. Verna responded remarkably well. I’m so excited to be working with Jessica and making this significant shift in how I approach training and co-existing with dogs.”
