“Julia helped me with my 1 year old rescue - a Pug who cries when I leave her home alone and cries when I return home. Julia observed me and my pug then provided me with easy steps to follow to help my pug not panic when I leave the house. Julia was patient and provided multiple hands-on examples of how to retrain my pug. She was knowledgeable and tender with me and the pug. Julia has multiple techniques to help so I will be utilizing more than one to get my pug settled in more quickly. So far, so good. Julia also offered to return if the primary technique wasn’t effective in a reasonable time frame but it’s working out just fine as long as I continue to be consistent with the technique. I highly recommend Julia for dog training.”

“Julia was super helpful and understanding of my dog’s anxiety. She respected my dog’s fears, discomforts, and boundaries while encouraging her to face them and made tremendous progress with her in just one session.”
— Bethany Popkes & Vivian
“After a couple of visits with Julia, my dog and I now have a “tale of harmony” to share! My dog, who was a rescue, was very reactive to anyone (especially males) approaching my car. She would bark and snarl as they approached and I couldn’t break her of this habit. I was concerned because I’m planning a long road trip and I worried about making stops for gas, etc. This was a very specific problem, so Julia first observed the behavior and then came up with ways to break my dog of this need to ‘defend the car’. Julia gave me some easy and positive actions to take. Her methods worked! My dog calmed down and I’m now looking forward to our trip! Thanks, Julia!”
— Peggy Romeo & Bailey
“I hired Julia on a whim after I had a rough night with my very needy dog, and I happened to see her post on facebook offering training. She was very responsive and flexible with my schedule. Since my dog is 7 years old I was not very hopeful but I figured I’d give it a shot. Julia was excellent.. She taught me how to teach Chico to act appropriately when guests are over. Let me just mention again that my dog is 7 years old, and he is a HANDFUL to say the least. He has never had any formal training (my fault, shame on me) and I was truly impressed with the progress we made in just one session. She also taught me how to get him to not pull on the leash and I was AMAZED with the results. I have been trying Chico’s entire life to get him to stop pulling and I was able to make great progress with him in just a half hour. I still have a lot of work to do and I know it will be a process with my stubborn little guy but I would highly recommend Julia, and I plan on using her in the future.”
