"Highly recommend Fiona. I have a very sociable six month old puppy. So much so, that playing with other dogs was far more fun than coming back when called. That and pulling when on a lead was becoming problematic."
"Fiona was able to break the training down into small steps that were super easy to follow. My dog absolutely loved our sessions as did I."
"Now after four classes her recall is amazing and she walks well on her lead."
- Tammy & Leia (The French Bulldog)

"Fiona was so great with Victor. She really helped to understand him better. Fiona's positive enforcement training has really helped Victor with his training."
"Fiona gave me some great tools and advice to continue Victor's training in my own time. I'd highly recommend Betsy's Dog School"
