Big River Canine Coach

Donna is simply the best at her craft! She came highly recommended to us for a quality dog training experience. She is professional, communicates openly, and provides the dog owner with just as much training and constructive feedback as she does the dogs. I can't say enough positive things about Donna and her training style. Her facility is spacious and immaculate. Her home "follow-up" visits are helpful, and our dog absolutely loves her. We do too!

My boyfriend and I brought our 4 year old female mixed breed, very fear reactive dog to Donna. Daisy (our dog) was very anxious and stressed (she would bark/ growl and lunge) when we would go on walks or when people would come into the house or even when she would see other dogs from a mile away. What a difference 6 classes has made in our dog!! She has the confidence to walk by people in a store or while on a walk and even when walking by other dogs she is minding her own business! Donna has been helpful even since our evaluation and gave us the confidence that there was hope for Daisy to have an easier doggy life as long as we were willing to put in the work! Daisy will never be the kind of dog that strangers (people or dogs) can easily approach, that’s just not the kind of dog she is, but with Donna’a help we have seen such a huge difference in Daisy’s temperament and gave us a new perspective on how to approach things with Daisy. We look forward to continue bringing Daisy (she loves working and she loves Donna!) and new puppies in the future! Donna, and everyone at Big River is amazing we’d recommend them to anyone! Thank you so much for giving us the tools to help Daisy!!!
