Testimonials
“Our Sheltie had terrible separation anxiety. She would cry and tear things up every time we even left the room. Robin came to our house to train us what to do. She was highly informative and very patient. It has been three weeks now and our Sheltie is calm and happy. The separation anxiety is gone.”
– Andy T., Big Canoe Ga
“Bruce saved our Rhodesian Ridgeback, Rodney! We were days from either having to give our dog away or put him down. He had become more and more aggressive and had bitten two of our children and wouldn’t let any guest in the house without jumping and barking at them. Our vet told us that we had to call Bruce and Robin from Home Dog Training before we made any final decision. We are so happy that we did. We called and talked with Robin for over two hours about Rodney and she assured us that they could help. We weren’t sure that anything could be done, but decided that we had to give Rodney one last chance. Bruce came out two days later and Rodney went crazy when he came in the house. Bruce stayed calm and assured us that everything was going to be just fine. We first sat down and talked about Rodney and the family. We were amazed at all the things we were doing that were sending the wrong signals to Rodney. Bruce then started to work with us and Rodney. Within two hours of training, Rodney was calmly walking around the family and would sit at Bruce’s feet. Our kids could come downstairs and Rodney was perfectly fine. He was a completely new dog! If we had to give Rodney up, it would have been like opening up a hole in our family. Bruce showed us that we could keep Rodney and have a happy family.”
– Heather T., Big Canoe Ga
“I am amazed at how easy it is to have a great dog. In two short hours, Robin taught me everything I needed to know about dog behavior. The incredible thing is how Daisy instantly responded to the training. I am so happy I called you guys and am going to tell all my friends about how you have given me a wonderful and loving canine companion.”
– Katherine C., Ellijay Ga
