As others have remarked, Natasha is truly remarkable and has achieved remarkable results in a short amount of time. Additionally, she skillfully groomed my dog and mended my damaged iPhone. I am eagerly anticipating all the things my canine companion, Shadow, will be able to learn under her tutelage!

The DC, Northern Virginia, and Maryland area boast of having the best dog trainer in the person of Natasha Jones, the owner of Canine Obsessions. As an owner of an unruly and disobedient German Shepherd puppy named Gio, I had to seek her board and training program four months ago as I was contemplating giving him back to the breeder. He constantly bit us, had aggressive behavior towards other dogs, caused destruction in our home, and refused to obey commands.
After four weeks of boarding and training him, I was pleasantly surprised to see a completely different Gio. He turned into a calm, sweet-natured, and 100% obedient dog. The negative behaviors that once brought me to tears were a thing of the past. It was an amazing transformation which the credit goes to Natasha and her remarkable training techniques. I continued to follow her guidelines, and now at nine months old, Gio remains to be the best-trained and composed dog. He is an essential member of our family, and I receive compliments about him wherever we go.
I owe Natasha and Canine Obsessions for making our lives better. In the future, I am planning to have Gio trained for my autistic daughter as an emotional support dog (ESD). Natasha is an expert in this field, and I feel privileged to work with her. I continue to avail of her boarding services as well.
Thank you, Natasha, for being the best!

Canine Obsessions, run by Natasha, is an excellent option for dog owners seeking boarding and training services. We entrusted our older border collie and mischievous golden retriever puppy, who was wreaking havoc on our home, to Natasha's care while we went on vacation. Despite being in her first heat, our puppy remained comfortable under Natasha's supervision. Both dogs enjoyed their time there tremendously. In addition to boarding, our puppy received training, which yielded notable results in just one week. While there are still some areas for improvement, we are thrilled with the progress she has made. Natasha's expertise in all areas of dog training and boarding is vast, and her fees are also reasonable. If you seek a professional and committed dog training and boarding service to ensure your dog's welfare, Canine Obsessions is an excellent choice.

When I stumbled upon Canine Obsession, I was originally seeking boarding for my almost 3-year-old American Pit Bull Terrier, Thor. However, after conversing with Natasha, the owner, we naturally delved into the topic of training. Although Thor is a sweet dog, there were concerning social behaviors that were potentially dangerous for both him and those around him. After leaving Thor in Natasha's care for a little over a week, I am astounded by the progress he has made. If you're experiencing similar issues with your furry family member, I strongly recommend reaching out to Natasha, who is a professional and compassionate trainer. Our training is still ongoing, but I already see positive changes in Thor and myself. Natasha has even reignited the joy of walking with Thor, and I was able to take him to a store with me! To receive safe, knowledgeable, loving, and humane training or boarding, Canine Obsession is the place to go. Natasha, thank you for your exceptional work, and I look forward to continuing our journey together!

Natasha is simply the best. When I was in distress about my dog, she was there to provide support and guidance without ever giving up on him. We decided to opt for a combination of board and train sessions, along with personal training sessions with Natasha herself. Despite my dog's stubborn nature, she worked diligently with him and went the extra mile by keeping him for an extended period of time. Thanks to her efforts, my dog is now muzzle trained - he even willingly puts his face inside it, an achievement given his past behavior. Additionally, he is now successfully crate trained and off/on leash walking trained. However, as my dog is still a work in progress, we continue to schedule training sessions with Natasha's impeccable patience and expertise. I have no doubts that under her tutelage, my dog will be fully trained in no time - his progress thus far is a testament to her abilities as a trainer.
