Rikke is the 'dog whisperer'. I have a brand new puppy, who came from a background that has made her pretty much uncontrollable and Rikke came 3 days later to my house, and within an hour and 30 min. had this puppy doing tricks, games, simple manners, and most importantly spoke with me about understanding my dog, an what I am dealing with as well. She is INCREDIBLY knowledgeable on dogs, and is so patient, and understanding.
She was so good that I hired her for several more sessions on the first day !

I'm convinced Rikke will be able to help you manage or solve any behavior issues you have with your dog.

Rikke's will show you by using positive methods that you can achieve the same...

She gave me many great techniques that have helped my dog with boredom issues while I am away at work, instead of my puppy eating my house up! Recommended highly
Pros
+ Good with dogs, knows them well, has great techniques
Cons
- a lil pricy
I had just moved to NYC 2.5 years ago from CA. I brought my 2 yr old adopted Cocker Spaniel with me. He had no proper training, he had seperation anxiety, was not potty trained, was very fearful of all the noises in a big city, took the lead when walking on a leash, ...no training. You get the point. I called a dog service company and they sent me Rikke to my apt in the Financial District. She was on time, extremely dog friendly. And most IMPORTANTLY, people friendly. LOL. She was extremely knowledgeable about dog breeds and opened my eyes to genetically why my dog does what he does,...
