Ela has been a great and friendly trainer for my amazing but stubborn English Bulldog rescue. After having trouble getting him to stop doing things like sitting in the middle of the street, she guided me toward new techniques for walking him, as well as new strategies for teaching him commands. Highly recommend her services!
Where do I even begin? Ela at Pawminded is an absolute saint. We had Ela spend a week with our little 15 week old Nugget and he came home a totally different pup. In a week he learned to socialize, walk on a leash, basic commands and was all around more confident. Prior to Ela working with Nugget, we couldn’t even get him out of the house to walk without hesitation. I can’t say enough great things about Ela except Nugget will be seeing her again! If you have a dog or pup, please invest in Ela and Pawminded. It’s the best thing we did this year 🙂
Thank You Pawminded for training my pup as much as you did. Raine is now better on the leash, fully potty trained, more social, and even knows some tricks. Although I missed my dog, Pawminded sent me updates everyday to let me know how my pup was improving and what areas she needed to work with. I appreciate everything you guys did and for making my life as a furmom so much easier!
