Testimonials

“With a new, fierce, fearless, bossy wire-haired miniature dachshund. Sue is a perfect fit – deeply experienced, a joy for us and Tux …and she is the Boss. Tux loves her house visits. Her post-visit, recap Notes are priceless… She inspires us to do better, to understand the owner/puppy dynamic and Tux welcomes her gentle but firm handling. We are huge huge fans.”
– Susan & Walt

“Dog Dynamics, Inc.’s Beginning Obedience course has greatly improved our relationship with our energetic puppy, Ruby. Bonnie packs a lot of expert information and training into every 45 minute class but does so in a simple way that is easy to follow and repeat at home. Her ability to describe and demonstrate how dogs interpret our actions has changed my perspective on interacting with Ruby. The change we’ve seen both in ourselves and our pup in six short weeks is dramatic. Most importantly, she made a process that I anticipated to be very frustrating really fun.”
– Jessica, Mike and Ruby

“Bonnie has an incredible talent and is a great resource. Initially, our Vet recommended her for help with our first dog; a very strong willed dog. Bonnie helped us train our beautiful dog, who as a result of Bonnie’s training, was precisely obedient and a great family dog. Bonnie trained our family on how to understand dogs and how to recognize our role in living with a canine family member.”
– Rhydonia
