(Cyrus) Cyrus is doing awesome. My 5 yr old son thinks he's an official dog trainer now because I had Cyrus on a 30ft lead and he was walking him and playing tug with him. I have pictures of it, I will send them. He bragged all day long about it.... "Dad I'm a dog trainer now". Then later in the day the rest of the kids came home from school and my four youngest played basketball in the basement and Cyrus just loved it and played along with them stealing the ball every second he could. They got a big kick out of him playing ball with them." ( Gregg, PA)

( Training ) I have known Barbara for about 9 years now. I was referred to her in 2001 by Sonda and Bobby to help me with a Black Shepherd I had recently acquired named Bonnie. I didn't have a clue where to start with my dog. Barbara helped guide me in the right direction. Barbara took Bonnie in for me when I ran into some hard times and trained her to be a therapy dog. That was 7 years ago. In 2008 I rescued a 7 month old Shepherd we named Deacon. He was so badly abused and so afraid, I knew it would be a challenge. I sought Barbara's help and without it, Deacon would have been euthanized. He could have been an extremely dangerous fear biting dog. Instead, he is a wonderful member of our family that has earned his CGC and Rally Novice title. During the time of training Deacon, Barbara also helped me achieve a CGC title on my other dog, Alex, who was only 8 months old at that time. Currently, Deacon is working towards his Therapy certification and my newest addition, Gretchen the Doberman, is working on her CGC. With Barbara's knowledge and experience, she has helped me learn to communicate better with my dogs and opened the doors to a better relationship with them. She is devoted to the dogs and training them and us as Handlers. Barbara is always looking for new techniques and innovative ideas to make it better, more fun and an exciting experience for everyone! I am blessed to know her as a trainer and as a friend. Sincerely, (Samantha Salisbury, NC)


(Maddie /Training) Good morning Barbara, I just want to let you know how pleased I am with both you and Maddie. Both of you never cease to amaze me! The service I have received from you from the very first phone conversation forward has been out of this world. For a breeder to take the time to call and allow me to in away be a part of my puppies birth was truly awesome. I will never forget that experience. I was so excited and still get excited just thinking about it. Maddie is the daughter I never had. So to be a part of her birth was awesome! Maddie learns so quickly! Again I am truly amazed! You spend one day teaching her something and she knows what to do. Then it is just taking the time working on it with her to get it perfected. The best part of you is how you take the time with your clients and the dogs. Your training classes are great!! Without you Maddie (and I) would not have passed the CGC. I never would have dreamed she would have her CGC at 4 months of age. Let alone that I would have been able to train her to do it. You are training ME (which is not an easy job!). I have never owned or worked with a dog (or puppy for that mattet) with such a high working drive. The more you work her the happier she is! With my fibromyalgia it is important that I excercise. Maddie motivates me to get out and do it! I am eager to train her more and more! Each time I train her to do something I start planning the next obstacle. The sky is the limit I believe with her. She has the ability to do so much (I believe). She has the ability to keep up with my busy family...sometimes I question if we have the ability to keep up to her. I am now looking at our options of competing with her and training her for tracking, SAR, agility, rally and whatever else may come our way. The question is can you train ME? I know you can you are just that awesome. Earning the CGC has motivated me to never give up. It has also proven to me that with the RIGHT instructor anything is possible! I was getting nowhere but confusion and frustration with a local trainer.You and your classes are so worth the commute for us. Driving 2.5 hours and getting the class we get from you is so very worth it. Your classes are full of information and are so much fun to be a part of at the same time! So I guess what I am trying to say is THANK YOU for selling me a wonderful dog, for giving me such awesome customer service, and providing me with terrific training classes! (Wendy , SC)
