Florida Dog Training School - Tampa Dog Trainer

Helene is an angel. She is patient, kind, knowledgeable and eager to help. You can trust her to love your dog just as much as you do while helping transform them into the best pup they can be for you and your family. If there were more than five stars to give, I'd give them all.

We decided to get a Bernedoodle, and we were wholly unprepared for the stubbornness and energy these pups have! We were able to potty train him easily, but behavioral issues: jumping, barking, chasing etc....kept us frustrated. We stubbled upon Helene and her business; and how glad we are we did! Helene gave us the tools and helped train Shadow (our Bernedoodle). He is like a new dog! He now listens! The bond of respect between owner and canine has been established. He sits, stays, comes, lays down, and doesn't bark. Because Helen showed us the proper techniques, we became aligned at home on how we reinforced the training. Prior to that, we used different commands, voices etc....just to try to get Shadow to behave. I am being transparent: Helene was great! She armed us with the tools and has truly enabled us to mold Shadow into a great companion. I know some may say its expensive. Hopwever, look how much puppys are now; to me this investment changed Shadow and us as a family. Highly recommend Her. She is flexible, comes to you and is very professional.

We recently completed dog obedience training with Helene as our instructor. We couldn't be more pleased with the results as our doggo was admittedly a difficult case with anxiety and territorial behavioral issues. She guided us in a step by step process with modification techniques that were remarkably effective. She was caring and insightful in her approach and tailored the plan to our specific needs. I would highly recommend Helene and her services!

I adopted a 2 year old Frenchie and became her 4th but forever mom. I was assured that she was potty and leashed trained, with an easygoing temperament. Wrong on all counts. After 2+ months of being dragged down the streets, cleaning up poo and pee from throughout the house and breaking up dog fights (due to her reactive behavior), I called Helene. I am so grateful for her because she truly understands dog behavior. After a few sessions, the changes I had hoped for were actually happening! Helene taught me the skills to turn things around. Rest assured, if you need help with your dog, Helene is the right person for you and your pup!

Helene was an amazing trainer for our dogs - one an adorable, bouncy puppy and the other a 6-year-old with lots of anxiety about new people coming into the house. She deftly handled both cases with the ease of experience and made sure to let us know that dog training was just as much about the "human" training as it was training the dogs. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking to bring home a new puppy or teach an old dog new behaviors.
