Testimonials
We’ve been training with Terah for a year now, and it’s been nothing short of fantastic. Terah is everything you could want in a dog trainer. She’s passionate, empathetic, caring, and incredibly dedicated to the success of both dogs and their ‘hoomans’. She truly takes the time to understand each dog’s unique personality and tailors her approach with genuine care and expertise.
What really speaks volumes about Terah is her recent move into a permanent training home in Homosassa. It’s a beautiful reflection of her commitment not only to her work, but to the community she serves. That kind of dedication shows in every session.
We’re currently looking to add another puppy to our family, and there’s no doubt in our minds that we know exactly who we’ll be trusting with their training. If you’re looking for a dog trainer who genuinely invests in your dog’s wellbeing and your success as an owner, Dog Training with Terah is the place to go.

Terah is an excellent trainer who currently has a new venue for her training. She focuses her training on obedience, fun and socialization while also guiding owners to address the individual needs they may have. It’s so fun to watch how quickly the dogs progress even on their first day. She offers several classes from beginners to agility. I highly recommend her as a trainer.

Lilly is doing so well after training with Terah! It’s amazing how simple training a dog is with her instructions. She is never too busy to help with any issues and always has the best advice. You can tell Terah loves what she does. The trainers are all friendly and gently correct us. The cost is well worth it. I can’t recommend her enough. I plan to continue lessons in the future. What a difference in walking Lilly! She is a new dog!
