My energetic puppy and I have such happy, fun times working with Lorraine. Her training of us both is gentle, encouraging and very effective.

"Because she possesses excellent skills as well as the art of guiding dogs and their people to attain the desired results, there is never any forcing or shortcuts using harsh equipment or aversive methods, which can irreparably damage the caring bond we want with our dogs. She is very patient, her explanations are easy to understand and she follows up her sessions with comprehensive notes and suggestions and availability for questions. Love yourself and your dog/s by working with Lorraine!"
I highly recommend Lorraine as an ideal partner for you and your dog.

"I want to convey how great it is to work with Lorraine. I trust her expertise, and what truly made the difference is that she took the time to uncover and understand what my 3-year-old Labrador was experiencing before creating a plan of action. Instead of a cookie-cutter approach, she used a finely tuned set of skills that I’ve been able to apply successfully.
​
My conversations with Lorraine are light and informative, supported by easy-to-understand charts and clear follow-up communications. Achieving results is a collaborative effort, and I highly recommend Lorraine as an ideal partner."

"Choosing to work with Lorraine has been one of the best decisions for my relationship with my pup Roxie."
Autumn
Petaluma, CA
"Before Lorraine began helping us, Roxie would display nervous and fearful behaviors in certain situations - occasionally barking at another dog when both on leash - (maybe 1 out of 10). Roxie would also become too animated at home when we had visitors. She also would tug on the leash - not a terrible thing since she’s only 40 pounds, but still an aggravation. Since Lorraine has coached me in her fantastic training method I now believe I’m starting to “speak dog”. Working with Lorraine is like learning a new language. She will joyfully explain why Roxie is behaving a certain way - she shows you how to see the dog’s emotion behind the behavior and then adjust the situation so your doggie feels safe. I’ve learned that almost all of the “issues” were because Roxie didn’t feel safe. Now I can predict her anxiety, or see it develop in a new situation and reassure her with my “dog” language. I’m still in level 101, but together Roxie and I are a great team now, thanks to Lorraine. Call her today!"
