Gaye's an excellent trainer!  Leah and I signed up for Basic Obedience with Razzy but ended up learning some Advanced Obedience stuff too. In six lessons!! We received much more than we paid for or could have ever imagined!!!  Gaye told us she didn't want us getting bored and she definitely didn't want Razzy to get bored so she just kept adding new commands. Gaye wanted us to learn as much as we could. We couldn't believe it!

We took Bentley to a trainer who yelled/growled or whatever you want to call it when teaching him the "leave it" command. Bentley hid behind me shaking. The trainer told us she had to be "firm sometimes".  I never took Bentley back there!  Gaye insisted I talk in a normal tone and that I should never intimidate my dog.  She called it "our inside voices".

Several trainers refused to work with our rescue dog Missy. One trainer said she'd help us but never called back!  We checked around and Gaye's name kept coming up so we gave her a call. She got us in immediately. Missy's a changed dog, we don't worry about her biting anyone.  She can go anywhere with us. .

We sent them an unruly dog (Bixby) and picked up a well trained dog.  We highly recommend Gaye and Denise.

We heard Gaye was great at matching a puppy's personality with the family.  First she met with us and then the breeder.  Gaye selected the perfect puppy for our family.  Casey is terrific!  We took Casey to Gaye for training too, he's even more terrific!

We weren't so sure we wanted to send our dog (Rocko) away for training.  We decided to take a chance with Northern Sky Obedience Academy and we're glad we did!  Rocko's training was definitely NOT a waste of money!  We received weekly updates and to our surprise they sent us a couple of videos!  Rocko is the most well trained dog we've every owned!  It's amazing what they do!

Training with the two of you was educational, effective and alot of fun. We're so proud of Jack (and ourselves).  In case your wondering, we don't forget to praise him, after all you drilled it into our heads!! 
                  Thanks again,

Denise is so wonderful and so patient.  She really wanted us to succeed, without her we surely would have failed.  Woody and I are very thankful for the her time and experience!
