I have the utmost respect and appreciation for Donna and her training techniques. I adopted Rowdy when he was 5 months old. The poor little guy was terrified of the world and most of the people in it. In all of my 60 years I have never had a dog that was so full of fear and anxiety. I was overwhelmed and at a complete loss of how to work with him. Donna came highly recommended so we made an appointment with her. At our first session, Rowdy was so scared he wouldn't get out of the car. He was cowering in the back of the van and was just shaking. With the patience of a saint Donna came out, sat on the ground in the parking lot and slowly coaxed him out. She assessed him, made a plan, and started working with us the following week. By the third session Rowdy was gaining confidence, he hopped out of the van and was eager to work with her and I was starting to see light at the end of the tunnel! After seven sessions, Donna has successfully trained both me and Rowdy to work together. She taught me how to make Rowdy feel safe in the world so he can enjoy his life. He's even started making trips to several local stores with me and no longer cowers when people talk to him. He's growing up to be a happy, confident dog and a wonderful addition to our family. With a very grateful heart, thank you Donna for everything!
