I started training classes with Abby for my Corgi, Samantha, when she was just six months old. At that point, the only real expectations I had were for her to learn how to sit, stay, and not pull me around when I was walking her. As the classes moved from Puppy to Beginner to Advanced, I could see her really taking an interest. We’d go outside and she would heel at my left and look up at me with that Corgi smile on her face as if she were saying, look, I did it! I can tell she is so excited to go to class and be around her friends, and she looks so excited every time we learn something new and she is able to accomplish it.

Abby teaches everything so well with a fun attitude and really encourages a lot of praise. Now, just nearing her first birthday (and knowing much more than how to sit, stay, and walk on the leash), Samantha and I are getting ready for our first co,,,,……… dog show!

Working with Abby has been a great experience for me, both getting to see the great rewards of working with my dog and also being around a fun group of other animal-lovers every week.
