Thumper: Dog Training

My husband and I are very fortunate people. Because we found Esther Horn! We affectionately call her, “The Puppy Whisperer” behind her back but the fact of the matter is that it is really not far from the truth.

We adopted an adorable, spunky little puppy named Thumper and really had no idea what to do once the ink was dry on the check. We contacted Esther at Hands On Paws. She came to our house, sat with us at the kitchen table and presented us with a checklist. She patiently explained and reviewed each item with us. Puppy proofing, nutrition, exercise, vaccinations and so much more. All this before the training even started! Esther provided us with so many tips on how to make life with a new puppy so much easier. And they all made perfect sense.

If we have a question about anything we usually call Esther first. Even before the veterinarian. That is how comfortable we are with her. She is calm, patient, supportive, intelligent and always put us at ease.

We no longer consider her just Thumper’s trainer. She is also a friend of our family.

Thank you, Esther. A round of paws for you!
