Up to Snuff Mutt

I have taken multiple classes with Christina. We started with puppy principles then a few workshops, agility, and a trick dog series where Jolene earned her novice, intermediate and advanced trick titles. She has so much fun and loves to be challenged and learn new things.

I contacted Up To Snuff when we got a new dog and needed behavior help. In the last two years, she has helped me train my dogs to AKC titles, raise a new puppy including potty training, and problem solve all sorts of issues from dogs not getting along, to person guarding, to confidence building when in public. She is always professional, patient, encouraging, and kind. The training she provides in her private lessons is personalized and custom fit to your needs. Her group classes are safe, fun, and well designed. She is up to date on the latest in doggy psychology/body language to help you communicate with your dog and build a real relationship that is founded on trust and not fear. Her methods work with how the dogs think and you become a team with your dog. She's great at problem s

Christine has been so very helpful in helping me learn how to raise my puppy! She has been positive and encouraging when I have felt like I was not doing what was best for him. Koda( 8 month old Dogo Argentino with a splash of Boston Terrier) is doing amazing because of the hard work she has taught me to put into him! Love love love Up to Snuff Mutt!

Christina is the best dog trainer around. She love animals and has a passion for what she does. I would trust her with my dog’s life. She does a great job training pet parents because let’s face it, it is us who needs the training. Thank you for helping us with Gus Gus! He still lives his teacher Christina!

Christina has taken our two dogs from wild coyotes (Chihuahua mixes) to great family members. We have done both group classes and private lessons to take it a step further. And she has been enlessly patient with us as pet parents. Both of our dogs are now Canine Good Citizens and Novice Trick Dogs.
