Bonnie is extremely kind and professional. She helped us understand the importance of training our dog since we are first time puppy parents. Teaching us was key! Our pup absolutely adored her. It was amazing after the first session with a little homework how well our dog caught on. I look forward to having her help again in the future! We appreciated the positive perspective and extensive knowledge she has. Highly recommend!

Working with Bonnie has been a great experience and given me many insights and tools for working with my dog. When I reached out, I was in a very frustrated place, and Bonnie took time to assure and encourage me. She showed me many things that my dog was capable of learning that I had struggled with figuring out how to approach for a long time - my dog is now learning skills, and interacting with me in new ways. It really restored my hope in working with my dog. Bonnie’s flexibility on where to meet and what to cover has been very helpful as well as we’ve addressed a range of behaviors, situations and questions that have come up. I feel more confident and connected with my dog and would highly recommend!

Bonnie saved me from having to give back my purebred Lakie! I had resident Wire Fox Terrier and added a Lakeland. They would fight over resources and misplaced aggression from the neighbor's dog. A popular "certified" trainer (no degree) told me the 4-month-old Lakeland was "deviant" and "mis-wired." As tears streamed down my face, she offered to 'take him off my hands" - a very expensive, very cute dog. I called the breeder, who said the "trainer" was wrong: the Lakeland was submissive in the litter, and my stress was adding to their stress. Then I called Bonnie. Results were amazing. I learned techniques that improved the relationship between the 2 dogs. I learned how to bette read their behavior, which is subtle. They were never "buddy buds," but with 2 unrelated terriers, you don't expect that. They got along well after training: no more fights over resources.
