"Liane is a wonderful trainer of both dogs and humans"
"she uses positive approaches that bring a dog to their best level on a wide variety of efforts. My red Heeler, Pele has benefitted enormously from Liane's positive approach to training"
-- Peg Abrams
"Working with Liane has completely transformed my relationship with Charlie."
"He's grown from a scared, reactive rescue to a confident, happy companion. The entire training process has been fun, and confidence inspiring for both myself and Charlie
-- Dace Raven
"I wish I had met Liane sooner on my dog training journey."
"She is the reason my youngest dog is able to have a full and functioning life! I will forever be grateful for her faith and hard work that took a scared, shut-down dog into a confident and happy boy!"
--Alicia Dewitt
“Liane has been such a lifesaver! Two years ago I was strongly considering giving my beloved pup up..."
"I was having so many issues with him. I started working with Liane for herding and Ryder is a completely different dog. I've learned how to handle him... She'll shoot it to you straight, which I absolutely love! Highly recommend.
-- Cela Leaño
