I was given a Golden Retriever that will grow to weight almost as much as I do. Ann Lewis gave Sandy and me the training we needed. I can now walk with Sandy with a loose leash with little or no pulling - even with squirrels, birds and other dogs in close proximity. Without Ann's guidance, I don't think I would have been able to keep Sandy. I recommend Pups2Pooches for anyone with a new puppy or a mature dog who has any issues.

I highly recommend Ann as a trainer. She is patient, professional, reliable and most importantly knowledgeable and passionate about what she does.

I was having difficulty handling Zuko’s hyper activeness and Ann helped me regain confidence in myself as a pet parent. After his first training session, we realized that he had some anxiety and fear issues. Ann did an incredible job working with Zuko using simple games that helped build his confidence. And now his fear, reactivity and anxiety are greatly reduced. Ann exceeded our expectations as a trainer. I am truly appreciative and grateful to Ann and I can’t thank her enough for helping me and Zuko.

I went to Pups To Pooches with a problem - my 1-year-old puppy/dog was jumping up on my kids, knocking them over, chasing the cats, overreacting to guests, and pulling my arm off when I went on walks. I needed strategies to get some control over her - even when she was very excited. Ann at Pups to Pooches came to my house and took stock of the situation. She put a lot of thought into what strategies would best help with my particular problems. We went on practice walks with her so that she could see how my pup reacted to other people and helped me with my walking "technique." She also helped us with recall words, with strategies to stop craziness when friends came over, etc. When she taught my pupper calming techniques and "place" - that changed everything. Thank you, Ann, for everything. I highly recommend Pups to Pooches!
