# What clients say

In their words, not mine.

## In their words

From my Google listing and from clients who wrote in directly. Where I replied at the time, the reply is here too, because that exchange is usually where the dog gets named.

DW Dog Training

> “Denise is fantastic!!! She is very accommodating and personable to work with. She is extremely knowledgeable about pretty much all things dog. My boys loved her and responded very well to her training and methods. The thing that is great about her is she works closely with you and teaches you how to teach and work your dog(s) in a long run sense not just teach them how to sit, and that's it.”

> “Denise has been such a lifesaver, both for us and for our puppy Rhett. As first-time puppy owners, we were struggling with leash reactivity and overstimulation in outdoor environments. Without Denise, I don't think the problems would have ever been resolved. She took the time to get to know him before deciding on the type of training that would work best for him, and she was spot on. She truly understands and loves dogs, and we could not have picked a better trainer, she's as good as they come. We are so proud to see him thriving, learning, and becoming the best dog that we know he can be, and we absolutely could not do this without her!”

> “I am so happy that I found Denise to work with my 3 year old French bulldog. He is a sweet boy who is really nervous and unsure of himself. Overtime he developed a leash reactivity that I couldn't handle myself, and I found walks so…”

## Some of the dogs

Real dogs I have worked with, and what they came to me for. Luna, an Australian shepherd who did an e-collar and socialization board and train in February 2022, and Milo, a chihuahua mix who worked through reactivity on Kick Start, belong on this list too. I have not been able to lay hands on a photograph of either.
