We did a one month board and train with Courtney for our dog Zoey. We have spent so much on trainers in the past that just made new problems or amplified Zoey's reactivity. We needed help to get us back to "living with" our dog with hikes and store trips. We have spent years trying to manage things but just couldn't get a grasp on it. When we came for our first session/visit on week one the difference was incredible. Not only did she build up our Zoeys confidence and obedience but she helped teach us what we needed to change and how to handle things in the future. Better yet, we learned to train without relying on treats. I wish we had come to Courtney 4 years ago! Our Zoey graduated today from her board and train. We went for the calmest park walk we've ever had with her EVER. We are fore

I’m neurodivergent, so finding a trainer I feel comfortable and confident with isn’t always easy. Working with her has completely changed my perspective on the dog training/conformation world. I no longer feel excluded from such an amazing sport, and I’m excited to keep learning with her. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone. Delilah loves her too! And that’s the most important part. 🩵

When we first sought help for our dog, Uma, she exhibited reactivity in public spaces, particularly around other dogs. This behavior was rooted in past experiences, where she had been attacked by off-leash dogs, leading to fear and defensive reactions. Recognizing the need for professional guidance we turned to Courtney at Skylla Dog Training. From the very first session, Courtney took the time to understand Uma’s history, fears, and triggers. She crafted a 4-week training plan that not only addressed Uma’s reactivity, but also empowered us as owners to handle various situation confidently. Courtney’s approach was not just about training Uma; it was about training us as well. She emphasized the importance of understanding our own responses, and how they influenced Uma’s behaviors.

I left my Aussie with Courtney & was really pleased with her facility. She is extremely knowledgeable about the different breeds & knew my dog needed lots of exercise. She has a very nice set up & I'm happy to say that my dog was well cared for.

We recently moved to onalaska. We took a long shot calling the groomers in the area. Most were full, couldn’t do a large breed dog or they were booked out so far my guy would have been waiting over a month. But he needed extra TLC asap. He’s a 120lb Newfoundland, who I do not like him shaved (cuts our fine), was swimming/playing in a swamp while we camped a few weeks back, has serious allergies, and wasn’t getting better by me washing him. He had three baths in three weeks and was becoming matted 🥹 in 5 years he’s never had a Matt but besides behind his ears. This was a tough groom but Courtney said she would be will to give it a go. She got him in the same week. Took her time, which I truly appreciate, and gave him a glamorous cut/de-Matt/wash he looks amazing and I could not have asked f
