Christina helped us immensely with our dog Coby who has some serious behavior/aggression issues. She has made our lives with this lovable furball so much better. She taught us how to properly handle this little guy which has taken so much stress off of us. Until Christina came along we didn't know what to do with him. Now with her training and guidance we have a clear plan to help this little guy as well as us. Christina is an awesome animal behaviorist

After 51 years of marriage, 2 children, and 7 dogs, we adopted a 3 month old Leavitt Bulldog. Although loving and lovable, Larry soon showed very unpredictable behavior and difficulty interacting with other dogs. We kept him at home and avoided public places. Several months later, Larry was a strong athletic dog but unpredictable, lunging at other dogs and working himself into a frenzy when outside, making walks frightening and leaving us all feeling overwhelmed. Then we found Christina. After a simple and easy meeting with her followed by a hands on evaluation of Larry on the sidewalk, she quickly understood the behavioral problems and began educating and training us as well as Larry. Under Christinas tutelage, Larrys transformation to a fun companion was rapid, straightforward, and reliable. Walking him very quickly became a pleasure instead of something to dread each day. We are still amazed and thrilled and very grateful to her for her expertise and her palpable love for her students. I would just like others to know how our lives have been changed by her expertise and caring. Another huge "thank you" to Christina! i.e., A local favorite, or highly recommended because

Kathy D. We first met Christina in 2002 we needed a behaviorist who understood the make up of a Keeshond. Well what a find! Comet was SO in love with her and we were truly amazed and knew we found a gem! Comet loved Christina so much that if I wanted to get him to come inside all I'd have to do is pretend Christina was in the house and he'd come running. Prior to find Christina (a Loooong deliberate search) we had your "old World" type trainer come in, Comet was not happy, we fired him on his second lesson AND to prove the difference, he was in the neighborhood one day a few years later and it produced stress in Comet, his fear was unreal! NEVER that with Christina, she truly changed his life and ours. We had her back for our Freya in 2004 and will again soon for Baldur. She is a dog whisperer!

Christina is a savior! A few months after we adopted Cesar, a greyhound mix, he developed separation anxiety. He chewed books and pillows when we left the apartment, scratched all our doors, chewed through all the blinds and even broke through our bedroom window screen. As soon as Christina started working with Cesar using her separation anxiety program specifically tailored to his issues he drastically improved. Working closely with Christina we found her to be very professional and personable. Separation anxiety takes patience, time and diligence to treat and we are grateful we found her, not every dog professional can resolve it but thankfully Christina is excellent. Before Christina treated Cesar, he would follow us right to the door and panic when we walked out without him and we were at a loss on how to treat it. Today, Cesar barely notices when we come and go, thanks to his time with Christina, and he even takes the liberty of napping on our bed when we leave. Cesar is calmer and much more confident which enables him to feel comfortable when we leave him alone. He now lives an anxiety-free life...and so do we!
