 testimonials

"Susan Smith of Raising Canine is a wonderful trainer and teacher.  She was particularly adept at showing our 12 year old son how to work with his new puppy, so that they both had fun and he learned how to manage 'man's best friend.' What I valued most about the training was Susan's practical and customized approach. She wanted to be sure that it was the right training for our dog and our family. She helped me, a reluctant dog owner and busy mom, feel in control and less overwhelmed with puppyhood. We all thank her—even Leo (our dog) because he is getting lots of treats and attention for his good behavior!"   Aileen Krassner

"The boys are doing great and we've used the techniques we learned from you to train little Louie in home manners - he caught on quick and we've had no problems with him at all!  We so appreciate all we learned from you and we definitely think it was great to have George in the class with the other dogs for his training. I will recommend you to anyone I know who is having behavior issues with their dog. Please keep me on the mailing list because I definitely want to stay in touch.  Thanks so much!"     Kathy Stephens

"I wanted to thank you for the advice and help you gave me with Astro.  That was really an afternoon well spent. The Gentle Leader was a God send!  We take him regularly to the Quarries and Murchison to run free and play with other dogs. Thanks again for your help!" Diane Farr

"Thank you many times over for the recall info and instructions.  Our dog is doing great on the reward system, especially in contrast to how poorly she was doing with the negative feedback. Thanks!"  Leah Smith

"Thanks for all your help. Since I've gotten back on track after the Bar exam, Bryga's been doing great. She still barks but only when provoked or nervous. She comes on command and has almost lost her "default" sit (need to get rid of that for the agility table)." April Martin

"Thanks again for all of your comments yesterday. I really appreciate your efforts to educate people. There is not much literature out there telling us to keep our dogs' minds busy! I'm so happy to hear these things and to be able to do this for Bly. I also called my mother in California and gave her an overview of what you told us. She has a Maltese mix who is blind, so she is very interested in hearing about clicker training.  You know, in my dealings with businesses and individuals, I must say you are excellent with follow-up and administrative tasks. It's so impressive that you have consistently maintained contact and kept track of who, what, where stuff (i.e., class attendance, documentation, schedules) with such effectiveness. Thank you for this courtesy and professionalism. I look forward to future classes."  Janna Lusk

"Let me take advantage of this email to tell you how much we REALLY enjoy your classes... I know we're just beginners but already it's been a wonderful experience."  Ana Nieves
