TESTIMONIAL
“I recently adopted a two-year-old rescue Pomeranian. Thanks to previously speaking with Susan, an assistant trainer to Annalisa, I was familiar with their pet searching operations as well as their impressive law enforcement background. I contacted them, and was invited to bring Abby to them for an evaluation and training session.
The evaluation session was very informative for me, and Abby scored very well in three of the search disciplines. I was very impressed with the knowledge and skills of both Annalisa and Susan. They demonstrated search techniques using their Bloodhounds and rescued Chihuahua. Even on a windy day, their dogs demonstrated great skills in finding the “lost pet” blocks away!
Every aspect of the day was a well-tuned and effective presentation of materials, instruction on techniques, coaching during actual training, and excellent analysis and planning for additional training in progressively advanced skills.
I would very highly recommend them for training in the various searching scenarios. They will evaluate the temperament and personality of your dog during the initial session, and you, the owner, will learn a tremendous amount about your pet and what is involved in the various types of searches. All types of dogs can be successful searching dogs, including rescues!
Thank you to Annalisa and to Susan!”
