What our clients are saying

 "We adopted 2 cattle dogs that each came with different types of fear reactivity and anxiety. We chose Lisa as our trainer because fear free/force free methods are in alignment with our values. Equally important, this approach is exactly what our dogs needed to build confidence and counter condition their fear responses. By building their confidence, we were able to teach our dogs redirection and better coping mechanisms which means we’re all able to relax and enjoy walks and have family over to our house.

Lisa’s kindness, compassion, creativity, and intuitive approach with animals and the humans who love them are why she will be our trainer as long as we have dogs- which will be for life!"

"We have loved our training sessions with Lisa! We did individual training sessions and group sessions with her and were able to see so much improvement in our training! I have two small dogs that are very anxious and would bark and pull on the leash on our walks. Lisa was so helpful in teaching us different ways to improve our walks using positive reinforcement! 

She is so sweet and my dogs love her! 😊 I would definitely recommend Blue Dog Ranch! "

"Lisa is absolutely amazing! She was recommended to us by our vet for our dog, Flower. Flower was a very timid stray that we adopted and quickly learned was suffering from separation anxiety. From the first time we spoke on the phone, I knew we were in great hands! Through Lisa's support and guidance, Flower went from not being able to tolerate being alone for seconds to being able to be safely alone for hours! Lisa has been so patient with all of our questions and has helped guide us to being better dog owners. Flower has truly blossomed into a happy, confident dog and we have Lisa to thank for that!"

 "I just wanted to say to you how much I value the time Kota Pearl and I spent with you training. Even though it was over a year ago. She just got her nails trimmed by her Veterinarian and she laid on her side and was as calm as could be. There was a time I never dreamed that could be possible. 

Thank you so much. Your skill and expertise is unmatched! Your gentle way made all the difference and I'm just so grateful. 

Thank you!"
