"Our relationship with Carol started when we adopted our boxer from Green Acres Boxer Rescue. Working with Carol, we were able to help him become a much better dog. As dog owners, we learned of the mistakes we were making in our dog training. Shortly after our first training session, our two female boxers started fighting on a daily basis to the point where we thought that we would have to place one of them in another home. In steps Carol. A visit to our home and Carol saw what was taking place. She felt that with time and "tough" love from us, it was a situation that could succeed. Following the advice of Carol over a period of a couple months, our girls are once again playing together. We learned many training tips and we felt confident enough to venture into the fostering of boxers for Green Acres Boxer Rescue. Right now, besides our own three dogs, we now have a foster dog in our home. Carol is there for us when we need advice. Without her help we probably never would have attempted fostering. We also would have had to find a different home for one of our female dogs. Instead we are a happy family. "

"My early experiences with dog training were frustrating and I did not enjoy going to class. That has changed since I've been learning from Carol. She is patient and understands, and reminds us that each dog is an individual who learns differently and has different challenges to overcome. There is never any pressure to advance at an expected pace. Carol praises both dogs and humans during class, and makes the experience enjoyable and fun. Thanks to Carol, I have much better relationships with both of our dogs."

"Thanks so much for coming out and sharing your furry friends with us. It was a treat for those who love dogs and great for those who are just learning to enjoy them. The staff also enjoyed an entertaining hour. We look forward to seeing you again at the fair, and at Opportunities Unlimited."

"I can tell you that one of the best things to come out of your stay with us was a bit of advice you gave me: to take Hudson in the car on errands with me as much as possible. This has transformed our life. Granted, our car is a disaster, and there have been some annoying times, but we are together much more and he has a lot less crate time. Thank you, belatedly, for your hard work and loving heart with Hudson, Carol. He is stubborn, but loveable!"
