Imagine

• having a dog who responds when called regardless of the distraction...
• having a dog who sits politely while company is visiting...
• having a dog walk nicely on the leash...
• having a dog tolerate grooming or vet appointments.

Trained dogs

• are happier, healthier, and safer
• bond with their handlers
• are welcomed in dog friendly areas
• are more confident and can safely be allowed a greater amount of freedom

	Assess current household dynamics and explain how they influence your dog's behaviors.
	Teach methods of communication which will help you lead your dog with confidence and ease.
	Regardless of breed, age, or issue, we can coach handlers with natural and proven effective methods.
	Distance Education - If you live too far away but would still like to have your dog training/obedience questions answered, we can help! Call or email Rory to learn more. We are able to teach training and obedience techniques over the phone. We sometimes use Skype or Face Time as a teaching aid too which help to enhance this experience.

I had always had such a strong desire to have a dog that I can take out places and not have to worry about running off or doing crazy things and not listening, it was kind of a dream of mine. Through further work with Rory, not only did Otto begin to listen more and understand "no", I was finally able to take him out in public (say a dog park), off leash. Otto would now come when he's called, sit when he's told to, lay down when he's told to, etc. Otto became my dream dog! He could do things from a distance, stay in a spot while I walk clear to the other end of a field, and do all these things amongst distractions including other dogs. I would have never dreamed that my dog could do such things!

Rory is rare in that she is one of the best people I've ever met. She's a great person and a five-star trainer. She's extremely knowledgeable and experienced. She has helped Otto and I in so many ways and I will always look at her in high regard. I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone who is at a point with their dog where they don't know what to do, want to further their dogs training, or have their dog reach their full potential. Dogs are smart creatures, and with the proper training can really impress you and be wonderful companions. To some dogs it comes easy and to some it takes some work, and that's where Rory comes in. She has been such a blessing. I'm so thankful to have been able to have worked with her! - Lyndsey V.
