Description:

Over the course of 40 years, I have learned that most pet owners do not wish to commit themselves to lengthy class or practice sessions, only to find out that they still cannot effectively live with their dog. However, with my unique approach, I have eliminated this issue altogether. In just one two-hour session, I can achieve more results than that of an extensive six to eight-week class or a series of private sessions.

The inspiration for my 2 hour session came from a group class participant who, after the first session, was so impressed that they claimed they would pay solely for that one lesson. From there, I developed my effective method, centered around communicating from the "dog's point of view," which enables quick and efficient progress.

Gail's performance was truly exceptional! Our dog had an immediate response to her, which was extraordinary. We plan to enlist her assistance to continue our pup's development.

Our 3-year-old Border Collie/Lab mix, Bella, was completely out of control. Her incessant barking and aggressive behavior towards people and animals had even led my husband to consider finding her another home. Despite taking traditional training classes, she remained difficult to manage at home, and her behavior worsened after being boarded. We tried medication, but it only made her lethargic and didn't improve her behavior. At our wits end, we reached out to Gail at Lifestyle Obedience. To our amazement, during her two-hour visit, Gail was able to transform Bella's behavior without using any shock collars or corporal punishment. By using dog-centered training methods, Gail helped Bella become more calm, obedient, and compliant. She now walks without pulling, barking, or aggressive behavior, and has maintained her transformation for a week, making our lives and Bella's much happier. We highly recommend Gail and her training methods.

The training session was incredibly beneficial! Not only did our beloved pooch gain new skills, but my partner and I also learned valuable lessons. Thanks to the training, not only have we been successful in maintaining our dog's discipline, but we have also been able to apply the methods we learned to our second puppy, whom we recently adopted. I strongly recommend this training!

We were delighted to meet Gail, who came to our house to provide training for our two dogs. Gail was affable and her expertise as a trainer was phenomenal. In just a matter of seconds of commencing the training, we observed a remarkable change in our dogs' behaviors. Gail furnished us with the skills and equipment to earn our dogs' admiration. We would gladly recommend her services to anyone. Thank you for your invaluable support, and we will surely invite her for further assistance in the future. David
