Testimonials

We couldn’t be more pleased with Heidi. She trained Ruger and Maverick when they were puppies. Ruger is 2 and still follows his training. Maverick did puppy boot camp with her and obedience training later and has done so well. Heidi does an amazing job following up and making sure everything is going well. If retraining is needed she has accommodated that as well. Since training we also only use Heidi for kenneling our babies. Ruger and Maverick absolutely love her! When they see her, they get so excited. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with our babies!

Heidi is an absolute wizard with puppies! When we brought our rambunctious 6-month-old Golden Retriever puppy Stella to her for training, we were ready to gain some control over her endless energy. From day one, Heidi's patient, positive-reinforcement approach turned chaos into calm. She tailored every session to Stella's playful energy, teaching commands like "place" and "down" and "heal".
In just a few weeks, Stella went from pulling on leashes to heeling like a pro, and her recall is now lightning-fast. Heidi's warmth and expertise not only transformed our sweet Stella but also made training a joy for us too when we got her back. If you're puppy-parenting a ball of energy, Heidi is your miracle worker—five stars, paws down!

As a professional in the working dog world, there are very few people or facilities I would trust with my dogs—let alone my Belgian Malinois. Complex Canine is one of those rare places where I can walk away with full confidence that my dog’s training, safety, and wellbeing are in capable hands. The care, structure, and professionalism they provide makes them stand out in a field where trust is everything.
I’ve also had the opportunity to send an Australian Cattle Dog for a board-and-train program. This was a young, misguided dog who truly needed a fresh perspective, a change of environment, and a little more patience and tailored guidance than I could personally give at the time. The difference was remarkable—she came back clearer, more balanced, and set up on the right path.
Whether it’s high-drive working dogs that demand precision, or a companion that just needs a reset with the right eyes on them, Complex Canine delivers. They combine skill, knowledge, and heart in a way that is rare to find. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

"Heidi is a great trainer! She is firm, patient, and kind - with the dogs and with us. She gave clear instructions and was available for any questions we might have had. She listened to our story and created a training plan for us that worked. She helped us walk the dogs around the yard and around the neighborhood, so she isn’t afraid to do what she’s teaching. Her methods work and she is easy to work with"
