Fort K-9

We couldn’t be happier with Rina or the progress Chewi made during his board and train. I interviewed several trainers and loved that she uses positive reinforcement while still being structured and effective. Other programs felt either too militant or like mostly playtime with a little training mixed in. Rina was exactly the balance we wanted. She sent frequent videos showing Chewi’s progress, but she also explained what he was learning and taught us how to continue the work at home. He came home happy, still completely himself, and with greatly improved impulse control. She was also honest about what still needs practice and has continued supporting us since he came home. I love that the dogs stay with her onsite and receive personal training while still enjoying playtime, agility activities and swimming. We’ll absolutely use Rina again for boarding and training with our other dog. I trust her completely and highly recommend her!

If I could give a zillion more stars, I would. Rina is amazing!! She trained my 2 puppies when I was about to lose my mind and when they came back, they were totally different dogs. They love her, and I love her. She is always there when I have a question or need advice. She is the only one I trust to leave them with. I would highly recommend her to any and everyone. Trust me, if you need help with your dog, this is the place to go!

Rina Sullivan is the best! She came highly recommended from a friend of ours who had their dog go through Rina's training. So we sent our dog to work with Rina for 30 days of training. She came back a more confident dog and now it is on us to continue her training. Our dog was very reactive and it was a mission to take her on walks but now she understands her commands and looks to us for direction during a situation that used to be stressful for her. Rina gave us and our pup the tools and confidence to succeed. Every day she gets better and better. Rina was able to guide us in learning more about our dog and how to approach various situations. We are very grateful that Rina was so hands on and kept us updated at every turn. Thank you so much! We are grateful to you! We also sent our dog to Rina for boarding when we were away and our pup did excellent with her then as well. Any time we go away for more than a day, we look to Rina! We know our dog is in wonderful hands with Rina.

Dog Training I can’t recommend Rina enough! She’s an AKC good canine evaluator and a master dog trainer with almost 30 years of experience, and it shows. She has an impressive understanding of dog physiology and dog behavior. With her help, both me and my puppy are becoming the best we can be together. Her approach goes beyond basic training, it focuses on real life, understanding, communication, and teamwork. The results have been amazing, we are more connected, more confident and training is not a task, it is actually fun and enjoyable. Her pricing is very fair for the level of expertise, personalized attention, and genuine care she puts into every dog. If you want real results and a trainer who truly invests in you and your puppy, Rina is the one!
