Took our 5 month old Vizsla, Ruby, to Annette for her puppy class. Ruby really enjoyed it and we did too. Learned new ideas for keeping our puppy and ourselves happy and healthy. We definitely will attend any future classes she has that will help with our growing puppy. Annette came highly recommended and we were not disappointed.

Called Annette at 10pm on a Tuesday night. She made me feel assured that there is nothing wrong with my dog. She told me to send video of what my dog was doing.
