What Our Clients Are Saying

Lisa has an excellent working knowledge of behavior, both in a technical sense and a practical sense and can convey the information to her students in layman terms in a way that is not intimidating.
The class structure is very well organized with a clear outline of plans and expectations.  Students present are very responsive to her teaching and presentation format.
I was very impressed."
-Dr. Terri Morrison

"Lisa,
Your help was so crucial when it came to Allie.  We are so glad you came into our home and showed us how to make Allie work out.  We are so happy we stuck it out and have her today. "
-Robin Larson

"Prestigious Paw provided in board training for out 9 week old puppy. We brought her right from the airport to Lisa. Daisy immediately took to Lisa and we felt quite comfortable leaving her.
Lisa was so loving with Daisy, while setting limits. She worked very well with teaching housebreaking, which was our first priority. In addition, Daisy socialized with many dogs in a variety of settings. Each 1/2 hour of Daisy's time there was tracked and given to us  in writing. Best of all Lisa's positive training techniques worked!  We brought home a housebroken puppy, and she was only 12 weeks old!
 
Let me add one more important thing, Lisa is a doll to work with, exceptionally responsive to all of my questions, and so patient with my family's need for education about dog care.
I am extremely grateful to her for all of her hard work."

"Mark is a very friendly and personable trainer who is easy to talk to and makes you and your dog feel comfortable.  Our dog, Bear, loves him and responds very well to his personality and training techniques.  Mark was able to handle Bear quickly and effectively in various situations and settings and always in a kind and positive manner to which Bear responds positively. 
I would not hesitate to recommend Mark to my friends and family."

"Hi Lisa,
I really enjoyed Mark's class last evening.  There are so few trainers out there who know what
they are doing and actually have people skills.  You and Mark have the whole package.  I loved the
handouts and the homework sheet!  I am so relieved to have found you guys!
Lisa has trained both my 6 year old Samoyed (therapy dog), as well as my 2 year old Pomeranian.  We participated in the Outdoor Adventures class which was held at a busy park in Westfield.  My Pom was a rescue with SEVERE fear issues.  I had difficulty walking her in public because she was so reactive.  She would bark and lunge at pedestrians, as well as other dogs. When my daughter's friends visited the house, she would chase after them and bark. I had several trainers come to my home to work with her. One trainer told me to scold her, the other said to lock her in my bedroom when visitors arrived. 
 
All I can say is, by the end of Lisa's course, I was able to walk my Pom around that active park without a peep!  The best part, was the fact that Lisa only used POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT.  I want my dogs to be calm, confident and happy.  The last thing I want is for them to behave properly out of fear!  In fact, I was amazed that my Pom actually out performed my therapy dog, who had previously participated in over a dozen courses!  Lisa is truly outstanding!
 
I am equally thrilled with Mark!  I also have a 6 month old pup.  We participated in Puppy Preschool when she was 11 weeks old. I truly credit Mark for the success I have with her today.  He really started us off on the right foot.  Most puppy classes focus on socialization.  While Mark did allow the pups to play at the end of a session as a reward, he focused on shaping behaviors for the majority of the class.  He would not allow anyone to proceed to the next command, without having a clear understanding of the previous one.  By the end of this course, my "Shiloh" was solid on all of her basic commands!  
 
In fact, if it weren't for the confidence I have in Lisa, I would never have gone forward with this new pup.  She is a White German Shepherd (my dream dog).  I've wanted to own one all of my life, however, I was too nervous to proceed with this powerful, intelligent breed until I met Lisa.  I knew I would be successful with her in my corner.  Let's face it, an improperly trained GSD can be a dog owners worst nightmare (a real liability)!
 
I have worked with over a dozen trainers over the years.  I've even traveled to New York to attend seminars offered by Delta Society Pet Partners. They are internationally know for their success in training therapy dogs for Animal Assisted Activities. Trust me, the Wance's can hold there own with the best!
 
I stumbled for many years and experienced a lot of frustration and anger working with some of the trainers out there.  Many do not know how to deal with people without being condescending.
 
The icing on the cake is that in addition to their incredible knowledge, the Wance's are a pleasure to work with.  They know how to communicate as effectively with the owners as they do with the canines! :0)  This is so rare today!  It is a sad reality, however, most of the trainers I've dealt with did more harm than good."
