Wonderful Dog Trainers!

We rescued a 2 year old dog that we were told was a bearded collie, with no manners. My son and I took him to day school and after one day he was able to sit and stay. Xalina and Sandy also told us that he was NOT a bearded collie, but a terrier mix. The next week he started to growl at our 6 year old daughter for no reason. After another day at school his manners improved more, but they noticed that he started to exhibit more bad "terrier" traits - like growling at other dogs. My 11 year old son was working with him every day and bonded quickly, but after our last lesson the dog growled at our daughter in front of Xalina. She quickly told us that the growling would escalate to biting and that this dog was probably not the best dog for our family. She realized that this would break our son's heart, but she knew it would be best for us if we returned the dog to the rescue group. She wrote a letter for us to give to the group. Xalina encouraged us to get a puppy and we did the very next day. Today our 14 week old aussie doodle is in day school and the puppy classes. Her bad manners are dwindling thanks to the hard work of Xalina and Sandy - and my son. I would highly recommend these ladies and the wonderful staff at Dog School 101!
