Confident Canines - Puppy Imprint Training Service

We took our 7 week old GSD to Linda, for his first puppy lessons. We learned so much and are still learning. Linda is patient, very knowledgeable and loves our Atlas. Linda and her dog partner Nica who was a great help with teaching and socializing are a great team, in a very dog friendly home where we still visit for a little play date visit even though our lessons are over. We are new to the area and she has introduced us to other friends and pups to continue our learning and play. I highly recommend Confident Canines as a great place for you and your pup.

Linda was amazing to work with! She truly has a gift with animals. She was patient and understanding with us as we went through training with her and our puppy. She was able to answer all our questions and still does to this day! We have stayed in touch beyond our training sessions, and we are so thankful we chose Confident Canines to work with!!

We chose Lynda because of her 19 years of experience and her reward based training. She has helped my wife and I build not only a fun and rewarding experience, but a loving and trusting experience between us and our puppy Sonny . We recommend Lynda to anyone who is looking for training and way more !

Linda has a real talent for reading and understanding puppies. She is meticulous with her care, she offers great tips and tricks to owners. Her knowledge of positive reinforcement training is second to none. Many times she’s had to train ME so I can get exceptional results with my Bernadoodle. I value everything she has taught us. Thank you Linda.

Lynda is a qualified and experienced trainer who has earned the trust and respect of the dogs, her clients and colleagues. I am but one of many trainers who will be referring clients to Lynda with confidence.

Linda was very welcoming and it was apparent very quickly that her puppy imprinting training works.
