“Louise has been outstanding in offering guidance, knowledge, support and more in helping me and my anxious pup work through many different things. Having tried other training services in Mount Washington Valley, I can't say enough good things about Conversant Canine. She has made herself available to answer any questions or concerns and I'm so grateful to have her as a resource as we progress with training. If you need help working through issues with training your dog, don't hesitate to reach out, you won't be sorry you did. Thank you Louise!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Louise. She is SO knowledgeable, clear, and communicative; training with her has greatly improved my understanding of my dogs’ learning needs. Her prices are more than fair for the top-quality services she provides, and she is available for help and supportive every step of the way. My pups and I are thrilled to have her in our lives!”

“Louise is amazing! It is clear she loves what she does and truly understands what each dog needs to thrive. She is extremely patient & supportive and has given me so much confidence when it comes to training my very excitable dog. Louise has made herself available to answer all of my questions and concerns I have had along the way and is an incredible resource to have as we continue our training, we are so thankful to have found her!”

— Ali

Louise has an innate ability with dogs. It’s really amazing to witness. Though my husband and I have spent our entire lives having dogs, there was so much we didn’t completely comprehend. Working with Louise, we had one “eureka!”moment after another. She understands dogs and their minds at such a deep level, and she’s able to translate that to us as the owners so clearly and succinctly. Everything we learned just makes total sense. Thanks to Louise, we feel like we now understand a new language.

Our two dogs were already pretty well behaved when we started, but they each had their own reactivity in different situations and we wanted to help them continue to improve. Luckily we found Conversant Canine. She created a program that addressed their unique needs, gave us ample time to practice and work together with her guidance, and educated us and our dogs in such a comprehensive way. Louise really set us up with all the tools for success and we’ve seen such immense improvements within our dogs: minimizing aggression toward other dogs, less barking, and boosting their overall confidence.

Beyond the home visits, Louise brought us to public settings where we could work together through real-life exposure situations, while feeling totally safe, supported, and in control.

We really appreciate Louise’s balanced philosophy and techniques. She emphasizes the importance of behavior and guidance while also valuing love and reward to nurture your dog into a productive member of your pack.

To top it all off, when our one year old daughter tagged along to our training sessions, Louise was beyond accommodating and loving toward her. Our daughter still asks about her regularly! Beyond an amazing dog trainer, she truly feels like part of our family and journey with our animals.

We can't say enough about how wonderful Louise is! She was so helpful in training our 4 year old and 7 month old Doodles. We have done other training programs but her approach really helps you build a deeper level of communication with your dog.

Louise is an amazing dog trainer who will take the time to listen to you and help you learn the skills to achieve what you’re trying to accomplish with your dog. She is as much a people person as she is a dog person. When I talk to her, I feel like I’m having a conversation with an old friend and she loves my pet as much as I do. I have been working with Louise and my now 2 year old German shepherd since my dog was 6 months old. Louise has helped me build on my dogs puppy skills and work with my dogs leash reactivity. I have utilized her one on one training on several occasions as well as her dog walking which is not simply a walk but an hour long walk which involves training and reinforcing skills and building on your dogs skills. My dog is always tired after the walks because of the physical and mental stimulation which is difficult thing to achieve in my high energy young German Shepard! I honestly can’t say enough good things. Louise has helped strengthen the relationship with my dog by giving me the skills to communicate clearly with my dog and trust my dog to follow commands. Having this trust allows me bring my dog into parts of my life I otherwise wouldn’t be able to. I highly recommend Louise for any problem you’re experiencing with your dog.
