What Others are Saying About Groups
Chelsea & the entire team are absolutely wonderful! We started taking our dog, Houser, to classes when he was about 6 months old. We've done several classes and each class has been extremely helpful & educational. Classes not only help our dog learn appropriate behavior, but most importantly help my husband and I understand how to properly train him in a positive & rewarding environment. Chelsea is so hands on. She's positive, encouraging and so loving. Her classes are more intimate, so there is only about 3-4 dogs + owners in the class, which we love, because we felt we got significant one-on-one attention. Even after class ended, Chelsea has remained responsive, answering any & all questions we ever have about Houser. She's an amazing resource! We've even had Houser stay with Chelsea at her Board and Train while we were traveling for several days. She was phenomenal! She sent updates throughout the day with pictures. To be honest, our dog's schedule with Chelsea was far better than at home with us! We're sure he would stay there forever! She spent several hours training/practicing with him & gave him specific rest & play time. It was wonderful! We loved the updates, because when traveling, you're always wondering what your dog is doing. Thanks to her updates, we never had to wonder or worry, which allowed us to relax & enjoy our vacation. We cannot recommend Chelsea & Pawstive Futures enough! We will forever work with Chelsea & no one else! If you need a dog trainer, she's the best one out there! We trust her wholeheartedly!
