COURSES
Cathy trains exclusively at Animal Lodge™ at Alameda East Veterinary Hospital. With a little work, some planning, and forethought, your dog will be an effortless, well-behaved companion for years to come. It is important to recognize that first impressions are lasting ones and habits begin to develop from day one. Basic obedience instills good manners and habits. And, good habits are as hard to break as bad ones!
