Once Dr. Pachel provided guidance for medication for Ike and training for both of us, we have progressed so that both Ike and I know what to expect from each other. Ike continues to be reactive to other dogs which is our biggest challenge when walking in the park, but Dr. Pachel recommended exercises and a dog trainer that has helped us manage the situation. With some types of dog behavior we also have to adjust our own expectations of our dogs which can be a challenge. The most rewarding thing is that I have grown in my confidence which Ike has responded to as he will look at me for direction and has become much more affectionate as well. Dr. Pachel is a key part of \u201cTeam Ike\u201d and we both look forward to our annual checkup with him!<\/p>\n<span class=\"testimonial-author content-font-family\">- Monica C.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ozy-caroseul_item testimonial carousel-cell \">\n<div class=\"testimonial\">\n<p class=\"content-color testimonial-quote heading-font\">Dr. Pachel is a delight to work with in every facet of his job.
