Working with Donna training our boxer puppy was amazing! Not only did she make the sessions engaging for our pup, but she took extra time and answered any questions we had to make sure that we were comfortable continuing the training during the week. Donna has such an ease and contagious energy, our pup loved each session and couldn't wait for the next!

Working with Donna was fantastic! I am a first time dog owner and had no idea what to expect! I knew from my first conversation with her that she was going to be a great resource and trainer for me and my pup Milo! She put me at ease and gave me a list of supplies to buy to prepare for Milo’s arrival and training sessions. She also sent reading materials and you tube videos that were super informative and helpful! In just 4 sessions I could see my pal Milo changing and learning! Donna is great with Milo! She has a great way with pups! She was always available to answer questions and I truly appreciated it! Thank so much Donna!!

We recently completed an 8 week puppy training session with Donna for our new rescue puppy. She was recommended by a friend who had a great experience. We are new dog owners and had no idea what we were doing. Donna is a very knowledgeable and effective trainer and she helped us tackle all sorts of new puppy issues. She was responsive to emails and patient with my many questions. Our puppy is doing great and I would recommend Donna to anyone.

We hired Donna at The Daily Dog as our personal trainer for our 8 month old puppy. This training was worth every penny. Donna spends time not only training your pup, but training you as the owner! When training is complete, you will have a better understanding of the way your dog thinks! Our relationship with our puppy has been strengthened by this training and we have seen incredible improvement in his behavior. Thanks Donna!!
