Tabea provided a consultation for us at a particularly difficult time in our family's life. Our already anxious and energetic beagle was having a tough time dealing with the extra stress, which in turn was making everything else harder to manage. Tabea gave us a series of short and longer-term strategies and suggestions. Some of these we would have never even thought of as possibilities. They were so simple, but provided such hope right away. These were suggested with the well-being of our entire family in mind.
That consultation was almost a year ago now and we continue to see benefits, so much so that we regularly remark what a difference those suggestions have made, especially when we're enjoying some time with our happy, more confident girl.

"After a not so stellar experience with another local trainer, we reached out to Tabea of Gentle Paws to help with our dog Bruce's resource guarding issues. Tabea was patient, accommodating and so kind to us and Bruce, even when he was having a hard time with a new guest in the house. After sessions with Tabea, we feel much more equipt to not only manage, but work on Bruce's resource guarding, while building a better relationship with him. She provided us with videos and activities to help us along our path with Bruce and she has checked in on his progress and also been very helpful with questions that arose after the training session. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to reccomend her to people who are struggling with their dog's behavior or just looking to improve obedience and their bond."
