At Attention Dog Training

Carli was a wonderful fit for working with our rescue puppy, Pudding. She met with us in a variety of real world settings, at our home, around the neighborhood, and even on my daughter’s college campus, which made a huge difference in helping Pudding generalize his training. Carli helped us address his reactive barking and anxiety in new situations and around new people. It was incredibly rewarding to see Pudding gain confidence and feel more secure as a result of her work. She uses positive reinforcement and clearly cares deeply about each dog’s well-being, always ensuring that Pudding was supported and never overstressed. I would gladly recommend Carli to anyone looking for a thoughtful, effective trainer to help meet their dog’s needs.

We recently completed in-home training with Andrea for Molly, our 2 year old Shepard mix rescue. Molly was very energetic and challenging. We were unable to get her to focus and stop barking. Andrea provided great advice, tips and lots of patience with our energetic pup. She provided insight into how to hold Molly’s attention and showed us how to work with her to get the behavior we wanted. Andrea helped us to get Molly calmer and more engaged. After working with Andrea, Molly comes when called, listens to our commands and is a happy member of our family. Thank you At Attention and Andrea!

Carli is an exceptional dog trainer—clear, consistent, kind, positive, and incredibly helpful. She explains things in a way that’s easy to understand and gives practical tools that truly work in real life. Her calm, supportive approach made both us and our dog feel confident and supported throughout the process. We have seen such meaningful progress and are so grateful for her guidance. I highly recommend Carli—10 out of 10!

We recently completed five training sessions with Alicia and the difference in our dog Beau — and in us — has been incredible. Before working with her, we had tried a franchised training company that relied heavily on a shock collar, which only made our active puppy more reactive and anxious. We left those sessions feeling uncomfortable, discouraged and unsure of how to help him. Working with Alicia was the complete opposite experience. She took the time to truly understand Beau, his personality, his triggers, and what he was trying to communicate. She taught us how to positively reinforce the behaviors we wanted, how to set him up for success, and how to build a relationship based on trust instead of correction. Because of her guidance, we can now enjoy calm walks and even trail runs to

Alicia was wonderful! We had spent thousands of dollars and tried several popular dog training facilities with little success. She was the first to truly help our reactive Frenchie, Leo. After just a few sessions, he’s calmer, listens better, and we can finally enjoy walks together. I wholeheartedly recommend At Attention Dog Training and Alicia Plink!
