I called Kerry at Flash Dog Training because I felt I had tried everything with my Australian Shepherd, and nothing was working. Nell’s behavior was going from bad to worse, and I didn’t know what to do. Not only was her leash reactivity out of control towards other dogs, but she exhibited other aggressive behavior towards people and dogs (especially ones on TV in our home). This was a very big issue for me, as we spend a lot of time hiking on busy trails here in Colorado. After meeting with Kerry, I committed to the 3 week board and train

We got Maggie as a puppy from the SPCA. A few weeks later, I found out I was pregnant! Maggie is definitely a quirky dog. In our first few months with her, she was aggressive, hyperactive, and demanding. But, Maggie also had a sweet and loving side. As my belly got bigger, we got more and more nervous that Maggie would not cope well with a baby in the house. We decided to work with Kerry, to see if she could help!! Maggie did 1 on 1 training in our house with Kerry, as well as a three-week intensive sleep-away

We are extremely happy that we were able to train with Kerry as our instructor! After training with Kerry, we became sure that everyone in the family including Ben, our Cock-a-poo, would live together with satisfaction. Before training, Ben would bark continuously at people out of fear, especially towards men. However, after learning a command called “place”, he started to calm down and would be able to stay without feeling overwhelmed. During walks, we would use commands such as “sit” or “heel” to keep him occupied when walking by pedestrians. While occupied, he would not bark or lunge at people

Kerry, I just want you to know how much I appreciated all that you did for me and my three wonderful dogs for the last two years!  Thanks to you, Panda is the perfect dog when out and about now.  She is totally manageable and so much more tolerant when around other dogs.   Cash is still a perfect dog as a result of your skilled training.  My son, Antonio, now gets to swing and ride on all his toys with wheels without being charged at!  Mikey, the monster, is still a work in progress since you left US for

Our first Bernese Mountain Dog, Macduff, was a wonderful gentle giant from a puppy onwards. We thought that we knew the breed but when we got our new puppy, MacLeod – wow!! We realized that we did not. He stole anything that he could, surfed the counters, ate socks, chewed his way out of his wooden pen – three times! and just generally misbehaved. He was clearly very smart but would not obey any commands and simply pleased himself. We decided to send him to boot camp and turned to Kerry for help.When we got him back after three weeks
