Yes Thank you!! None of the times you had listed will work for us this go-around. We need a Monday, Tues, or Sat class... if possible Saint needs 2 things (1)socialization with other dogs (excessive excitement and BARKING)He as almost melted down in vet waiting room. Puppy K with other dogs would be helpful. (2) General obedience is good, apart from pulling at walks. My hubby and I disagree. I feel he needs something like gentle leader.... as a harness is not enough Please keep me on you mailing list for upcoming classes.

Dory has been fantastic! She worked with both of my dogs and taught me effective skills and techniques to reinforce their training. I’ve already seen a huge improvement in their behavior. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive trainer.
Dory is fabulous!!!! I have 2 - 1 yo cocker spaniel brothers that have very different personalities and learning styles. I opted to do private lessons with Dory in order to train them both at the same time. The change in these dogs has been such a blessing and she's able to train me as well to be a better human for them as we venture out and about. Would do it all again in a heart beat.
I have taken all my dogs to Dory and wouldn’t go anywhere else for training. I love the way she helps me as much as my dog. My most recent has been a real challenge and Dory has helped me so much! She even found a hidden talent my dog has that will help challenge him. I definitely recommend Dory to help train you and your dog!
During an hour home visit Dory Hofmann gave us tools to manage our 11 month old puppy Lizzie’s behavior in a positive way, Lizzie has made remarkable improvement. We plan to follow up with group obedience classes.
