          Our puppy at 4 months is doing great, she knows her first few commands and is continually getting better. We learned a lot in this class and are grateful for what we learned with Victoria
          Thank you.

          -Danielle and Mary

          The training is amazing. Victoria really knows her stuff. I have a bull mastiff pup who was very reactive to other dogs and people. Victoria gave guidance on how to control her and work with her so we could enjoy walks and outings. Her group classes are great for socializing the dogs.

          -Amber S

          I cannot recommend Valley Canine Training /Victoria enough. I was surprised at how remarkably easy her training methods are. To start to see immediate success, you only need to implement a few short training sessions every day, and you actually have fun with your dog instead of admonishing him/her and forcing commands. The techniques are engaging and definitely help strengthen the bond between you and your dog. It's not just about better dog behaviour it's about a better overall life for both you and your dog. The results have been astonishing, not only with my dog Abi but also in myself as Victoria has helped me to understand how my behaviour effects her. Thank you Victoria/Valley Canine Training for all your words of wisdom and support. Abi and I couldn't have gotten here without you. We both look forward in continuing our training with you.

          - Lana and Abi

          Victoria has a natural insight and ability to help dogs and their owners. She is incredibly patient, supportive and knowledgeable, we desire to keep working with her because we have seen the results and want even more for our dog Callum. I can never thank Victoria enough
