I am so grateful. We have a dog. He is doing so well. We walk 2 1/2 miles a day. He loves his crate and sleeps perfectly in our room. Yes!

I can't say enough how thankful I am for Julie's help. My friend told me to reach out to her about my feral foster dog. She responded almost immediately and gave me extremely helpful tips about my dog. I know some stuff about dog behavior but this feral took it to a different level and I was concerned I was maybe doing something wrong that would worsen the dog . I have bought her online course which I recommend to everyone with a fearful dog. My foster is now officially adopted( by me, I'm a foster fail mom) and will keep progressing hopefully to where one day maybe I can cuddle or sit by each other comfortably. Julie thanks so much. I bet I'm not done teaching out!!

Julie is kind, clear in her communication with the dogs and appropriately gentle or firm when working with them. She understands the importance of the struggle with just enough push, but not too much, to help them move past their fears. Her grace in working with these fearful and feral animals is her patience, as it is sometimes a longer process...
