Testimonials

“Suzanne helped us prepare and care for our rescue puppy with helpful guidance on everything from crates + harnesses to barking, stomach upset, and more. She is positive, patient, and encouraging and her love for dogs is contagious! I couldn’t recommend her more.”
– Christine Haran

“Having decided to take the Canine Good Citizen exam with my rambunctious young poodle, I quickly realized we needed some extra help! Suzanne is sensitive to the needs of both dog and owner. She worked with us in an outdoor, real-life setting which was a challenge for my distractible pup. He passed!”
– Robin Kantrowitz

“Team Barker has helped us with our Beagles, who are notoriously difficult to train, as well as our rescue, Zeus, who came to us quite traumatized from the streets. Most recently she is helping us with Rory, our Great Pyrenees puppy. So she knows dogs of all sizes and temperaments and has saved us so much time and helped us avoid frustration. For warm & caring training of your dog she is the best!”
– Andrew & Veronica Corona
