We went to Wiggle Butt Academy looking for help with Bandit. He was resource guarding water, us and could be aggressive toward bigger dogs. We knew we needed help before heading to St. Louis to be around family and help with the baby.

We love Wigglebutt Academy!! We have a corgi that was showing resource guarding issues and was reactive to other dogs. After two sessions with Nicole we had the techniques and the knowledge to deal with the issues. He is finally getting along with other dogs....and sharing his water bowl!!! We are so thankful our vet recommended Wigglebutt to us!!! Nicole has helped us with his manners and being better furparents. I have tried other trainer methods with previous dogs and Nicole's are by far more positive and successful!! We highly recommend Wigglebutt Academy!!!
