Testimonials

- Meg

We recently worked with Sally to train our high drive chocolate lab puppy, Cali. Together we formed behavior and training goals aligned with Cali’s strengths and weaknesses. Then she customized a training plan aimed to meet those goals while leveraging Cali’s spirit. Along the way we had frustrating moments with Cali, but Sally was able to reassure us that progress was being made and helped us every step of the way. Sally remained calm throughout the training and helped us understand the root of Cail’s behavior so we could better shape it. More importantly she took the time to train us, so we could better train Cali…which was probably the harder of the two!

Sally introduced us to the clicker, which was a great asset in training and praising Cali. After only a few training sessions we could see improvement. Cali was paying more attention to us and was eager to please. Not only was Sally able to harness Cali’s high drive spirit but also she was able to teach us how to better deal with her through positive reinforcement. One size does not fit all, and Sally geared Cali’s training to what would work best for her. Once our training was complete, we had the building blocks needed to continue training at home. Thanks to Sally’s guidance and training, Cali is now a Canine Good Citizen.

Sally was a pleasure to work with and if she could train our pup…anything is possible. It's clear that Sally has a great deal of experience and we highly recommend Sally and the Fully Involved K9 Academy for all of your dog training needs!

Day 3 of chicken camp is going great! I've learned so much and trained a chicken to do an obstacle with the help of a human partner I just met 2 days ago. I cannot wait to get home and apply the things I've learned to Piper and the rest of my interactions! Chicken Camp is so much more than just clicker training a chicken. It's interpersonal relationships, management styles, how to talk and actively listen to people. I cannot thank Sally and Kathleen enough for their patience and expertise!
