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!

Put away the rolled up newspaper and "bad dog" admonishments. Sarah-Anne's expertise and approach for training our puppy has enabled us to raise a well-mannered, extremely happy dog with excellent temperament. We wanted a method beyond simple obedience training which could provide the long term bonding and development of emotional calm that we are now experiencing with our dog. Pack Dynamics provided us with the tools to continually and lovingly work with our dog on a daily basis through everyday interactions to reinforce leadership that he could rely on. In addition Sarah-Anne is a skilled and gifted intuitive healer with the ability to connect with animals as well as humans. She can tune into realms where there is purity of information and answers for the most challenging of life's journeys. She helped me gain clarity for the causes of my illness and then helped me develop a healing plan that changed the way I felt literally overnight. I have worked with many healers over the past 20 years and Sarah Anne has remarkable intuition, talent, skills, and knowledge that surpasses any of my previous experiences. I highly recommend her for a healing session. Your life will light up as a result!

I have worked with several animal communicators throughout the years but each seemed to end in just confirmations of things I already knew. Sarah-Anne connected individually to each of my three horses. Each were specific in sharing their desires, the reason they were in my life as well as sage advice each shared with me. Sarah-Anne was wonderful in translating it all for me, bringing forth each personality impeccably. If you would like to hear what wisdom your animal friend has to share with you, set up a session with Sarah-Anne. You'll be delighted you did! Jan R

Sarah Anne has been a God send for myself and my crazy, sweet husky Elsa! We had recently moved from Texas and with all the changes Elsa's behavior became, well out of control! I had thought briefly about taking her to be "trained", but found the techniques a lot to be desired. I then came across Pack Dynamics website and knew this was the answer. After the lecture and our first meeting with Sarah-Anne I was so grateful and knew this was the best decision I could have made for myself and Elsa. Sarah-Anne's Compassion, Respect and Love for the pups (and the their people) is so apparent. I never knew how many things we do that actually causes our pets more stress than not. Us taking over being the Pack leader actually is a relief to them. I had a friend come visit this past July and she could not believe the changes in Elsa. She was more relaxed and chilled. ;) Sarah-Anne is such a wonderful teacher and is always an email or text away to answer any questions, which is awesome, like a security blanket!! Sarah-Anne is also a gifted Intuitive. She has done a few readings for Elsa and I and truthfully, I've been blown away. I have had readings in the past for my animals and well, Sarah-Anne is the real deal! These sessions have been so enlightening and I have learned why I am in Elsa's life and why she is in mine. I'm so appreciative to Sarah-Anne for sharing her gifts with all who Love their pets and want the best life for them. She is truly a blessing! :) Mona R

Sarah-Ann is an amazing dog trainer and intuitive reader. I have a very smart, stubborn and anxious border collie. There were things we were doing with our dog that was actually causing him more anxiety, we had no clue! She has very easy and simple steps that you need to always implement to show your dog that you are the pack leader and instantly we saw a huge improvement in his behaviors. It is a very friendly and gentle training. Before her training when we would leave, he would bark or chew on things, now he no longer cares if we leave, when we go to work he is relaxed or sleeping the whole time (yes I have recorded him to see if that was indeed true). She really takes the time to explain everything to you and answer all of your questions. And even when the class is over she is always happy to ask any training questions you have call/text/email. She really cares about the dogs and wants to help the owners understand their dogs better! During the training sessions she also was able to communicate with him and she explained the reason why he had some of his behaviors. We live in an apartment and so we don’t have access to a yard and she re-assured us that he is so happy with being with us and loves all the adventures we take him on. Sarah-Ann is amazing and is worth every cent. Even if you have no “issues” with your dog it is worth getting training with her because she teaches you how to show leadership to your dog so your dog is always calm and relaxed in any situation.
