A word from our clients...
Dog training is one part Art and one part Science. For it to be successful, the dog and the owner have to build trust and respect for each other and the trainer. Our clients and their dogs, gain confidence and skills during the training process.
Our teamwork model (coaching) is what makes Bird Dog Coach LLC stand out among the rest.
We have created lifelong friends, both dog and human, as part of the process.

-Coach Christine
When we made the decision to adopt a beautiful GSP, Duke, we did our research and understood that we would be in for a lot with this particular breed regarding energy and drive. However, our beautiful little GSP puppy grew quickly and soon became more dog than we every imagined. We shortly began weekly sessions with Christine. The training began with basic obedience strictly in her barn...which at first was a Nightmare but with Christine's guidance, assistance, and advice we were able to start seeing small amounts of progress. She had always made herself available when we had questions or concerns and never hesitated to tell us what we needed to do or get, or what we were doing wrong. This was always greatly welcomed and appreciated as we had never dealt with a dog with this level of intelligence and drive before and we understood we needed to learn alongside Duke.
Christine has a vast knowledge of this breed and other bird dogs and saw something in our Duke that she was very excited about!
We began field training once he progressed enough with his obedience training and he excelled under her guidance. He participated in the NAVHDA Natural Ability Hunt Test and scored a perfect score Prize 1-112 points. We attribute Duke's success to Christine's many years of training bird dogs and understanding our Duke. Duke has since hunted with other dogs and large groups and has been a pleasure to hunt over.
Our family is forever grateful for the things Christine has taught us and Duke. We look forward to a continuing friendship for many years to come.

Simply put Christine is AWESOME! My dog, Major, absolutely loves her and it is the highlight of his week to train with her at her training facility.
At 7-8 months old she had my dog obeying all core obedience commands with hand gestures and whistles with no words spoken! She knows dogs and knows how to train them and have them listen, learn, and have fun! Highly recommend her.
