Training Carolina Dogs

Nicole is such a beautiful soul, and our Day Training with her was an absolute pleasure! When we started, my beagle was really reactive to other dogs and not very socialized, which was our main concern. In just a couple of days, we saw amazing progress. Over the next few weeks, he’s become a completely different dog in the best way possible. I loved the whole process! I feel so much more confident with Richie, and our walks and time around other dogs are finally stress-free. I can’t recommend her enough!

We came to training with two 3-year-old sibling dogs, a brother (Cooper) and a sister (Murphy) and we were honestly at a breaking point. Cooper was reactive toward other dogs. Big reactions, scary sounds. Both dogs had zero boundaries. Add a newborn into the house, and suddenly we had no way to tell them to settle, stay in a place, relax, or respect space. We loved them, but we were overwhelmed and out of tools. We chose to do the 2.5 week board and train with both dogs together, and after interviewing over six trainers and meeting three in person, choosing Nicole was the best decision we could have made. We picked her for several specific reasons and every single one of them ended up mattering. Nicole integrates the dogs into her everyday life instead of training them in an artificial b

I have been patiently waiting to write this review about my experience with Training Carolina Dogs because I wanted to see how the training my female Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy received would stick in our daily lives post training and if it would pass the test of time! Would my dog regress to the mean after leaving her board and train? Would she forget the training and techniques she learned with Nicole once she returned home and changed environments? It has been almost two months since we picked up our dog from her board and train session, and I can honestly say that this board and training session was the best thing we ever could have done. Our lives have been changed for the better and we couldn't be more excited and grateful for Nicole's services. Nicole was gracious enough to board

Nicole is amazing! She did a board and train for our 1 1/2 year old dachshund with amazing results. She is very knowledgeable and compassionate with the dogs. Her environment that she trains in provides real life scenarios and is very clean and safe. She was able to diagnose our and our dog’s negative behaviors and provide solutions to encourage success. She is a great communicator. She provides videos and pictures to keep you up to date on your dog’s progress and success. She is thorough in her explanation and training for us as well. Our life with our pet has been improved in so many ways. We highly recommend Nicole and Training Carolina Dogs.

We can’t say enough good things about Nicole! Our dog was completely wild when we first brought her to training — full of energy, jumping on everyone, and showing some aggression. Now, she’s truly the best dog ever! She’s calm, listens to us, and still has a fun, playful puppy personality. Nicole trained her in her own home, which provided such a warm, loving, and structured environment. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. The transformation has been amazing, and we’re so grateful for everything Nicole has done. Highly recommend her to anyone who wants a happy, calm, well-behaved dog!
