Stacie is a very caring person and took good care of Danny. When I went to pick up Danny, it was obvious that he had had a great time. He was happy and healthy and well entertained. I got just the right amount of updates from Stacie during Danny's stay with her. Her own dog, Bella, is a very friendly dog who got along nicely with ours.

Stacie started training with me at Off Leash K9 Training in January 2017 to attend the therapy dog development course with her dog, Bella. Stacie's insight & intuition along with her amazing work ethic in training with Bella quickly let me know this sweet lady is destined to work with dogs! After completing the 4 week basic obedience program with Bella, Stacie came on board as a paid employee with me to help with dog handling, socialization experiences, field trips, confidence building and also helped out with events and marketing. Over the next 4 weeks of Advanced training, Stacie began helping me out with issues ranging from shy dogs, dogs with major anxiety, dogs with fear reactive behaviors, unruly dogs, stubborn dogs, lazy dogs, hyperactive dogs and even dogs with aggression toward both other dogs and people. Stacie has also gone on to scent detection / nose work, tracking & trailing and search & rescue type work with Bella since graduating her Advanced training. Stacie and Bella achieved their American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen Certification as well as their Therapy Pets Unlimited (TPU) Therapy Dog Certification. Stacie has also been entrusted to care for my personal dogs when I go out of town; which could be my best compliment to her character. I could not recommend Stacie enough if you are looking for a conscientious, knowledgeable, compassionate, dedicated, enthusiastic & dependable companion for your pet.
