"I can't recommend Tamara and the CDT team highly enough. Tamara is a very talented dog trainer but also incredibly skilled in coaching and mentoring people. Our stubborn northern breed dog has allergies and can't have high-value treats, making her challenging to train - Tamara really helped us understand her and work with her to give her a sense of security, and us a set of tools to manage any situation. CDT exceeded our expectations in every way and changed our relationship with our dog."

"We highly recommend CDT. We signed our dog up because he was reactive on leash and barking at other dogs when we tried to go for walks. CDT has been so helpful and our dog is doing so much better. The training has been worth every penny!"
