Restoring the Connection – 

We came to Carmen sad and embarrassed: our sweet dogs, ages 4 and 6, had become more and more annoying over the years. When we noticed that even our children told them to go away more than they pet or played with them, we knew we had let things go too far. Carmen arrived, thoughtfully listened, and was immediately clear about what needed to change. Her solutions were both dog- and people-friendly.

Carmen is a delight to be around: her presence is calm and soothing, yet she is alert, aware, and has a keen eye for detail. After our first session we were excited and reassured; after our fifth we have a shared language with the dogs, a restored connection, and a road map for where we want to go and how we plan to get there. We could not recommend her more highly.
