Hi! My name is Michelle Alexandre and I got into dog training because I love to help people and their pets. When I adopted an 8 week old Border Collie
I had no idea of what I was getting into. I went through basic to advanced dog classes and still had major control issues. I needed help, but couldn't find it. So I decided to become a dog trainer myself. I've worked hard to be the best trainer I can be so I can help other people and their dogs.
My journey (15 yrs and counting) has taught me how integral and difficult patience is in dog training. This is why I named my company after my crazy, high strung, highly driven, never napping, always moving Border Collie, Patience. Without her I never would have become a dog trainer, and certainly not one with so much experience with incorrigible"BAD DOG!" behavior.
I can help you with everything from Behavioral Modification to Competition Obedience.
If your dog is jumping, pulling, nipping, barking, biting, anxious, fearful, aggressive, chewing, peeing inside, or just won't listen, let me help you. I will show you how to have a dog you love and are proud of!

Hello my name is Shevonne Pezzullo. Ever since I was a little girl I have always had a love for animals, especially dogs. I knew back when I was 12 years old that I wanted to pursue a career in training dogs and to help people enjoy their dogs the way it was meant to be. Michelle has given me an amazing opportunity here to do just that! I have the love, compassion, patience, ability and desire to help you and your fur baby. Let me show you how fun it can be to train, and how satisfying it is to see the progress and potential you know your dog has! No matter what the situation is, whether just basic obedience or specific issues that you need help working on, I would be more than happy to help!
