what people are saying….

  • Jinx

    “Alanna is absolutely wonderful to work with. She helped us with our German shepherd puppy! He went from dragging me all over the place to enjoying walks around Battle Point. Not only does Alanna help teach your dog but she also teaches you how to best communicate and work with them.”

    -Alex M.

  • Frankie and Charlie

    “The boys and I always learn a lot in our sessions with Alanna and we have so much fun! What started as a desire to work on a few things has developed into building a toolbox of skills for deepening my relationship with my dogs. Alanna is so well versed, perceptive, kind and encouraging. Everything you would want in an excellent teacher!”

    -Alex S.

  • Rona

    “Rona and I are learning so much from Alanna. She is aware of my dog's abilities and potential. She keeps the training sessions fun and light for both of us!”

    -Robin S.

  • Zoey

    “Alanna is such a gift. We rescued a super sweet but very high drive 8 week old puppy and were so overwhelmed. Alanna's utilization of shaping and positive reinforcement showed us how to work WITH Zoe to achieve results rather than fighting against her natural instincts. With Alanna’s help we have gone from frenetic and out of control to calm and an absolute joy.”
