"10/10! You were professional but also showing your love of animals was great, together with your enthusiasm. Every question or problem we encountered, you had a solution for, even if we just dropped the problem on you while you were here. We enjoyed watching you work with our pup, she responded so well to your methods. Your excellent personality made it easy for her, and us, to learn in a very enjoyable way."
