How to train your dog to show it's best self and teach the handler to pull the best performance from the dog.

"We have been attending Linda’s conformation classes for over a year. I can confidently say that we would not be the team we are without Linda’s expertise and knowledge when it comes to everything ‘dog’. She has taught us the correct speed for my dogs gait, how to hold the lead the correct way, how to free stack efficiently and most importantly, how to beautifully present your dog. There’s one thing Linda said to me that I think of every time we step into the ring - “You have 90 seconds with the judge. Make every second count!” I would recommend her classes to everyone. Every piece of advice has stuck with me and helped so much!" Randi M. & Ziggy

"When our breeder told us we needed to take our pup to CONFIRMATION* class before she could show, we genuinely thought she was joking. Considering how naughty our adorable wound-up puppy was we were quite sure the breeder was teasing that our girl needed Hail Mary’s and the hand of God if she were ever going to enter a dog show. Suffice to say, we came to Linda’s CONFORMATION class knowing absolutely nothing about preparing and handling a dog for the big time. And boy did we hit the jackpot! 

Everything Linda taught us was spot on. From language, to gear, to technique – everything we practiced proved to be precisely what our professional handler and breeder expected our pup to comprehend. Linda is patient, clear and direct. She of course loves dogs. Her fees are completely reasonable. Her expertise evident. She is full of anecdotes—and solutions—for every situation you might encounter at a show, including the one where you trip and fall and have to get up and hobble back to the line, with your own dog looking at you side-eyed. Own the moment!

We genuinely cannot recommend her more enthusiastically. We looked forward to every meetup and know that our girl learned more than just how to show. Simply being in the presence of other dogs at C.C.C. (canine conformation class), she built on her prior obedience training, gaining confidence and swagger.

To Linda’s credit our pup became a Champion in just two dog show weekends. Following cues and maintaining presence, she genuinely seemed to be having fun every time she entered the ring. 

 

Thank you Linda!"
