The literal best decision I EVER made was bringing my dog to Krystal. She is absolutely incredible at her job, my dog took to her right away and after so much work with her she was a brand new dog. Not only is she training the dog, she more importantly trains you. Which is key, you need to be willing and able to continue the work at home. I will never go to another trainer again, she is 100% the best thing to have happened to my dog! read more

Blue Ridge Canine - Krystal and Bentley - Pet Training Near Me - Culpeper, Virginia

I can't recommend Blue Ridge Canine enough. Krystal is incredibly gifted in training service dogs (and other dogs!) It's like she has some special insight to how the dogs work, how they think, and even seems to know what they're going to do next based on little things that the dog might be getting ready to do that a handler might miss until they are taught. She's funny, clearly loves her job and is WONDERFUL at it. Her greatest joy, though, seems to be loving the dogs- even the ones that aren't hers, just there for some board and train- and ensuring that they're happy, well adjusted, and ready for the outside world. I'm not sure why anyone would give her one star, unless they are just a terminally unhappy person. I completely trust Krystal. read more

Krystal has an incredibly solid understanding of dog behavior. She explains the psychology behind training methods in a lot of detail and has a realistic view of training techniques and how they work for different dogs. Training is not a one size fits all for every dog, and owner training is equally (if not more) important. Follow through and continued training/reinforcement at home is necessary for long term success. read more
