I emailed, but no reply yet....

I replied and texted , did you get?

Community answer · Private · 2020-09-21

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 is Amazing! For someone who has been through a few trainers with my dog, she is by far the most knowledgeable, personable and skilled trainer I have ever worked with. My dog has some reactive tendencies with unknown dogs and strangers. The moment Dory walked through my door for our in home session, she was training and making progress w my dog and myself. I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation and will definitely continue to train with Dory often for both of my dogs. Thanks Dory for everything!!

I have been training my dogs with Dory for many years. Her classes are fun and have a relaxed atmosphere. She pays attention to detail and makes sure everyone understands the correct way to work with your particular dog. She has many years of experience and is exceptionally good at helping owners with any behavioral problems they may be experiencing. She can come to your home and work with you individually if you need it. She is excellent at making sure you feel confident in your ability to train your dog and is great at responding to texts or calls if you run into something you have questions about. It is my experience that a well trained canine companion just makes life a little better. If you have a puppy, it's especially important to have someone like Dory help you lay the foundation for proper behavior, but any dog at any age can learn. She also does agility and has a program for group walks. I highly recommend you give her classes or private training a try.

Dory is an excellent trainer. She trains the puppy and the owners equally. We intend to continue the training after puppy kindergarten on to beginners and beyond!

Dory was very patient, and kind yet able to get results without raising her voice. Our boy responded to me very quickly when I was given the leash to copy her commands. Amazing results w/ the one on one training.

We have seen remarkable improvement in our dogs behavior after working with Dory in her group classes and some one on one lessons. Our dog is a lab-hound rescue. He is easily distracted and wants to follow his nose. Dory has patiently worked with him and it has made a huge difference. He does not pull on his lead, he is easy to manage around other dogs and he has learned a number of commands. Dory is the Dog Whisperer of Virginia Beach. Many Thanks! Robert Jones
