Pack Dynamics is a darn good name for Sarah-Anne's company. I had tried another training program before (at the cost of $125 per class for multiple classes) and while they gave some results, largely they were focused on conditioning. Sarah-Anne's approach is more wholistic and helps you to both understand pack dynamics yourself, and to help your dog understand that you're the pack leader! Like all things, you get out what you put in but if you're committed to getting your dog to listen to your every word (100% recall), then Sarah-Anne can absolutely give you the foundation to get there (in as short of a time as you'd like, in many ways!) My personal story is that I rescued a pup from the local shelter in January (9 months ago from writing this.) My dog "Z" was extemely anxious, scared of everything, had intense (INTENSE) separation axiety. I tried other methods which helped but not a lot. Finally I started working with Sarah-Anne about 3 months ago. Honestly, within days (days) of doing the handful of things she suggested I do, it appeared that Z was starting to understand that I was the pack leader and 1) she started listening to me more and 2) her anxieties literally started slipping away before my eyes. It was honestly a beautiful thing -- I've become so much closer with her as a result, and her with me! I recommend Sarah-Anne for sure. I think she knows something about the way dogs communicate (spoiler alert, it's not with words and commands!) and she can help you intimate the important information to your dog so that they can live a happy and stress free life!
