Testimonials
“Donna has been a long-time volunteer with Doberman Rescue Unlimited, Inc. and has fostered and trained some of our hardest rescue dogs. Donna has patience, expertise, and an understanding of the breed. Her years of volunteering will certainly give her the background and knowledge to branch out to begin her own business as a certified dog trainer at The Daily Dog.”

“I have used Daily Dog now for both training and dog walking and have been more than happy with their services. Donna is incredibly knowledgeable in her training and it is all reward based which is what I was looking for. Our dog has done amazingly well under her guidance! The dog walking service is incredibly reliable and always provides great feedback on our dogs outing!”
– Amber H, Scituate, MA
“Donna’s work with our dog Zeva has transformed her from a dog with a variety of behavioral issues to one who is very much a pleasure to own and be with. Zeva had issues with wetting, being destructive, and acting unpredictably with strangers. Donna’s training has replaced Zeva’s bad habits with behaviors that are predictable and easy to reinforce and has made her a very enjoyable dog to own.”
