"You really have amazing insight into dog behavior problems."
"We were having trouble with our neutered young male Shi-Tzu spraying our daughter's rooms. Rena's insight into his behavior and her suggestions have enabled us to correct his behavior! Thank you, Rena!"

"You made it possible for us to take our Labrador Retriever out in public again!"
" Thank you so much for taking the time to address Malcolm's dog behavior issues. The advice you gave me was concise and easy to follow. We have practiced the techniques that you taught us, and Malcolm's on leash aggression has definitely subsided. It will be great to be able to take my dog out in public again! Thanks again, Rena!"

"Amazingly fast, she's no longer jumping, licking, and having accidents!"
" Everything has been going great. It is amazing how quickly Julie has responded to your training. We have found that since we started using a firm voice and not yelling, she listens immediately and does not cower. She is no longer jumping up, and she is managing not to lick us all the time. Also, she is not having accidents any more. So we are quite happy with the results. We plan to continue on this road and be consistent with her and all should be good. I really appreciate your help and guidance. They really did help. . . Mulder (the male) is doing great as well. He is finally starting to behave on the leash! Thanks for your help. "

"Great articles! They are short, to the point, clear, helpful and reinforcing."
" Hello Rena,
I really appreciate your articles. They are short, to the point, clear, helpful and reinforcing… I just came in from a nice long walk with Truest. You are absolutely right about bonding through walking together. She is doing very well. No more accidents lately. I keep a log of when I feed her and when she relieves herself. It serves as a great guide and gives me flexibility as long as I can anticipate her needs. Since she has been sleeping with me on the bed she has bonded even more…. she overcame her fear of the clinkety clank noises coming from the radiator when the heat comes up. Now she is totally fine with it. Thanks again for your sound advice. "

"No more food aggression and possessiveness of toys with other dogs."
" Artie used to be very possessive over toys and food with other dogs. She isn't any more. Thank you!"

"I can now leave without my dog biting legs!"
" Gem is improving slowly. She no longer bites my legs when I try to leave, and she stays in her basket for ten minutes at a time. We are getting there, and we will keep working on it! Thank you!"

"Thanks for your clear direction and ingenious prescription. No more mounting, pulling, and other dog behavior problems!"
"Thank you, Rena, for your clear direction. Remington now waits in his kennel until given permission to come out, waits to be invited to eat his food, and has greatly improved his behavior toward my daughter (age 5). He used to mount her regularly, and now rarely tries it. Even when he does, it only takes a simple correction.
Boy the British slip lead sure makes a difference! It has stopped the pulling. By the way, remember how terrified Remington was of the stairs? Thanks to your ingenious prescription, he now runs up the stairs for me!""

"Thunder storm terror with screaming and urinating has greatly improved."
" Every time there was a storm (thunder and lightning), Thomas our Cocker Spaniel would run outside screaming so loudly that even my neighbors reached the point of having enough. He urinated everywhere if we brought him inside during a storm. So we were at a loss of what to do. There's only been one thunder storm since you gave the advice, and already there's been an improvement. Thank you! "

"Thanks for stopping my Leader Dog from Mounting … You are a fine dog trainer because you take on each person and each dog individually … patient, kind, caring, and no nonsense trainer."
" Thank you for the wonderful solution you gave me concerning the problem I was having with my Leader Dog (guide dog), Copper.
Since I got Copper from Leader Dog school about a year and a half ago, when playing he has exhibited some behavior that was downright crude and rude. I corrected him for this as my trainer had instructed, but the problem still persisted…. It really became embarrassing when a small child about his size came to visit and he, in play, began to mount her. Ugg! …
When I visited you in Florida, Copper behaved in this manner with me. You showed me what to do…. At first I was concerned that I might pull him down incorrectly, but I was very careful to listen to your directions, which were very thorough, and all was well. The first time I had to do this, I could picture him looking at me and thinking…'Where did she learn how to do that? I guess I'd better listen because she means business!'…
The problem has occurred 2 or 3 times since then, but has been resolved quickly without fuss or muss by following your treatment prescription. He is very ready to give up the idea and submits immediately.
You are a fine dog trainer because you know that every dog and every owner has a different personality, and you accommodate your training to suit dog and master. I would recommend you to anybody I know who needs a patient, kind, caring, and no-nonsense trainer.
Thank you so much for your help! "

"Our hyperactive dog was so willful and out of control that I couldn't even think of having a relationship with him… I never thought anyone could 'teach an old dog new tricks,' but you were a miracle worker and gave us a new dog!"
"Thank you for turning around our willful, undiscliplined 'Uppie' (Labrador - Border Collie cross) so my family and he can enjoy his last years. I never thought anyone could 'teach an old dog new tricks,' but you were a miracle worker and gave us a new dog!
Bored from long hours in the yard, Uppie taught himself many bad habits such as breaking porch screens to get out, digging in the yard, dog aggression, breaking out of his kennel, and more. He frequently played 'keep away' even as a mature dog, pulled me mercilessly on leash, and charged madly out any opened door or gate, to be found miles away.
Before starting dog rehabilitation, you told me your candid, detailed 'diagnosis' and the anticipated training techniques you would tailor to Uppie's particular circumstances. Then you kept me well informed throughout the two months you worked with him, discussing both problems and solutions so that we could agree on treatment. There were no surprises.
Your analyses and suggestions were insightful, demonstrating a keen awareness of 'dog psychology' as well as versatility in techniques. It also meant a lot to my family that your touch, while necessarily firm, was obviously quite loving, caring, and supportive in all the right ways. You won the dog's love and respect!
You didn't drop us at the end of the rehabilitation period, either. You spent time explaining the techniques I should use, the reasons why, and careful demonstration. You could not have been clearer nor more patient. Then you took me on a two-mile walk with Uppie to demonstrate everything for me. You stressed the importance of my working with the dog at least a minimal amount of time on a regular basis, both to establish my clear authority as 'pack leader' and to maintain the training, discipline, and respect.
It has worked! Previously, Uppie was so 'hyper' and self-focused that I could not even think of having a relationship with him. Now he is a loving part of the family and a rewarding companion to me. We can actually let him be with us in the house! His behavioral changes have lasted, and he is truly a different dog. We love him and couldn't be happier. We give you the highest recommendation, and cannot thank you enough. "
