C.H.A.C.O Dog Training & Behavior Consulting LLC

Almudena is a life saver! She was instrumental in helping me figure out what my dog needed after years of consulting with other trainers and vets. I thought I had tried almost everything and other professionals were suggesting it was time to consider behavioral euthanasia. But her thorough and thoughtful consultation provided me with the resources to find medications and behavioral modification that finally addressed very challenging resource guarding issues.

Took my puppy to the Kinder Pup 1 class for 6 weeks and we had so much fun and both learned a lot!

Very thorough and helpful, recommended!

Great trainer. Extremely knowledgeable and caring!
