"From the initial temperament evaluation to the last class and testing, both Lisa & Claire demonstrated their extensive knowledge and deep compassion & commitment to the training of companion animal teams. I found the training to be comprehensive, creative and thoroughly enjoyable and am grateful to be able to provide patients and their caregivers (in various settings) with the comfort that the simple presence of a companion animal can bring."
