Review of Puppy Pre-School, December 24, 2008
Linda is so much more fun than I expected! She is also awesome with all dogs & the humans that come with them. I'd had problems with my last puppy, as other instructors seem to think she was 'problem breed' or needed a lot of corrections that I didn't feel comfortable with. Finding Linda & UCLA dogs made having a second puppy so much more fun & helped make Mills into a great dog. The classes are very practical & I did like the way Linda would change the days activities to suit problems we were having, or speed up to suit the class. $ paws up for Linda!

Review of Puppy Pre-School, December 20, 2008
Linda helped us teach our jack russell terrier (Logan, best dog in the world) to be a very well-behaved little gentleman. Her gentle, logical approach and knowledge of dog behavior make her technique more effective (and more fun!) than any punishment or domination-based technique could ever be. And you'll feel good about it too.
If you have a new puppy, don't pass these classes up. They are definitely worth your time.
