Testimonials
“After just the first session I saw a huge improvement in her behavior and knew exactly what to do in the tough situations. They understand dogs really well and focus on the specific issues that impact your life with your dog. I feel like I know how to communicate with my dog now.”
– Julie M.Bisquit – Malinois
“She had already improved so much within the one session, and each day I work with her she is improving even more! Even more importantly, I feel excited to work with her each day and implement her new training because she is enjoying it and I don’t sense ANY anxiety from her about it. I HIGHLY recommend Julie and firmly believe what we learned from just that one session was worth every penny, and we plan to go back for more.”
– KaceyRiley – Cattle Dog / Chessie Mix
“Our canine companions are integral members of our family, and I cannot say enough positive things about my multiple experiences with Sensitive Dog. Sensitive Dog’s strategies and suggestions are shaped by a combination of their vast knowledge of canine behavior, their multiple decades of training, and their evident love and respect for dogs.”
