We just started working with Bonnie for our 18 month old Portuguese Water Dog, Wesley. Wesley is a high energy 50 lb dog who is stronger than he thinks and needs some help in the listening department :)
Bonnie’s work started right away when Wesley wouldn’t even let her inside! She walked us through the process of calming him down and was very patient and encouraging. Once safely inside, Bonnie took the time to get to know Wesley and all his quirks. At the end of the session, he felt comfortable enough around Bonnie to try and steal her winter hat lol. That’s a sign you’re IN!
In addition to the hands-on training, we also enjoyed the interesting tid bits about why dogs behave the way they do based on DNA, and how Wesley’s personality was shaped by his birth order. It all came together at that point, and training Wesley finally seemed manageable.
We spent 3 hours working with Bonnie and have another follow-up visit in 3 weeks. During that time we have exercises to work on, and it’s only 15 mins a day which is very manageable. Wesley will get an A+ report card in no time. Highly recommend if you have an energetic pup who could use some 1:1 attention. Bonnie was great!
