We had the pleasure of working with Danielle to help train our two young dogs, and we couldn’t be more impressed with the experience. From the outset, Danielle’s exceptional communication skills set the tone for a highly productive training journey. She took the time to thoroughly understand our goals and concerns, and her ability to articulate training concepts in a clear and concise manner made the process both accessible and engaging. Throughout each session, Danielle demonstrated a remarkable level of skill and expertise, effortlessly guiding our dogs through various exercises with patience and encouragement, all while clearly teaching us her techniques so we could reinforce the lessons between training sessions. She’s as kind and adept at teaching people as she is at working with the dogs they love.
What truly stood out about Danielle was not just her expertise, but her genuine kindness and dedication to our dogs’ well-being in all areas of their lives, helping us to take a holistic look at their well-being from several different approaches and giving us practical advice to help them become their best selves. Danielle provided us with a wealth of specific recommendations tailored to our dogs’ individual needs, which proved to be incredibly helpful in reinforcing positive behaviors at home. It was evident that our dogs truly enjoyed working with her, forming a bond that went beyond simple training. They were both always so excited to see her and sad to see her go. Danielle’s unwavering patience ensured that they felt comfortable and secure throughout the training process, allowing them to learn and grow at their own pace. Additionally, Thanks to Danielle’s guidance and warm approach, our dogs have flourished, and we are immensely grateful for her invaluable support in their development.

It is my pleasure to write this testimonial on behalf of Danielle Annis. Danielle was recommended to me by a friend who had worked with her when she had a dog that needed training. Since we had just welcomed a new pup into our home which already had a 14 month old pup we knew we needed some professional assistance to get off to the right start with basic training. Within minutes of my first phone call with Danielle I knew she could be of great help. She gave me tips over the phone without even meeting us. She gave me a list of items to order that would help us with our training.
Once we started our live sessions with Danielle, we all (especially our dogs) fell in love with her. She exuded knowledge, competence, confidence and commitment to accomplishing our training goals. She was never hesitant to step in and offer extra tips to get our pups to listen, follow commands, and relax. Danielle tweaks her training sessions consistently based upon the needs of the dogs and the owners. She is always researching the “Best Practices” and attending train the trainer sessions to continue to offer more to her clients.
We will continue to work with Danielle as time goes by so “WE”, not the dogs don’t forget what works best to make our dogs the best they can be.
Thank you, Danielle!
