Happy Dog Basic Obedience

Our 11-month old, Sadie, just completed puppy training through Happy Dog Basic Obedience with Dawn Lawrence. Dawn’s gentle, loving methods guided both Sadie and us through the commands sit, down, stay, look, and leash walking. She answered all of our questions which went well beyond the scope of the training. We learned that we (the family) were in training right alongside Sadie. Dawn has been training animals most of her life and understands their behavior. She immediately and correctly assessed Sadie’s personality, which she then aligned with her personalized training. We appreciate Dawn’s patient, gentle methods and are thrilled with Sadie’s progress! We can’t wait to begin the Good Citizen program in a couple of months!

Circumstances were such that I waited to seek help with my dog and am really happy to have found Dawn. Dawn is very kind & professional with just the right mixture of humor & seriousness to help both myself & my dog. She is very knowledgeable and has helped me as much as my dog in becoming a better team. I knew I had much to learn (and still do) and her training methods are helping me become a better pet parent and my dog to become a better companion & canine citizen.
