In Loving Memory of Ben and all our 4 legged heroes that keep our boys and country safe, we support Retired Military War Dog Benny. Proud soldier who served two tours in Iraq and one in Kuwait before coming to retire with us. We were honored to have been able to provide him with a richly deserved retirement, long days laying in the sun, laying by the fireplace, or running our 10 acres. He was the boss and did as he pleased, which is just what he deserved. We miss you, Ben- Ben! |

| Are you at the end of your rope? Someone recently called and, while loving her dog, wanted to place him but could not find anyone to take him. He was very aggressive towards dogs and people. Shelters would not take him, the liability was too great, the only choice looked to be putting him down. She had called around and could not find a trainer to handle the issue. We said we would and I am thrilled to report he is doing fantastic and after only a couple of session did a 100% turn around and she is going to keep him. (YIPEEEE!!!!!)
last resort, which is sad since most of the time the problem can be solved. It can be done, give your friend a chance- you will be amazed at how fast he can turn around for you and you have nothing to lose. Doesn't he at least deserve that? |

TESTIMONIAL We were looking to replace our Yellow Lab and decided to take a White German Shepard that was already 1 ½ years old. Perfect, we thought, already house broke and knew the basic sit, stay. Very loving when we met her and my teenage son loved her immediately. What we didn’t know was within a week she was not compatible with other dogs nor people on the street. I was not able to walk her during busy times or near anyone on the street without her trying to wrangle free from her leash and attack. I tried another trainer and was very costly and slow at training her issues. I was at my wits end, not knowing what I was going to do for the next 10 years with no friends being able to come over and only walking her in early morning. Claudia had me bring her to her center and knew she could work everything out and a lot quicker than I was paying for, and she sure did. Within 15 minutes my dog was more obedient, and hugging Claudia’s leg , because she had found the guidance she needed to become a happier dog. She was playing with others within days , for the first time in her life, and now eats out of the same bowl and allows other dogs to take bones right out of her mouth. She was thought to be aggressive and now rides in the car everywhere with manners that you could only dream of. Thank goodness Claudia came along when she did. I have my life back and this dog needs no leash and minds every command. I swore off ever getting anything but a puppy again, but I believe Claudia could rehabilitate any shelter dog into becoming what you want as a companion and will ask her what dog suits me before I get another dog in the future.

My Rott was out of control, he would growl at us if we tried to take anything away from him, would nip at us if we didn't play with him, stole food, chewed up everything in the house. While we felt an obligation to him, we really can't say we enjoyed him- he was awful! We know no one would take him and our only choice would be to put him down, but we just could not quite bring ourselves to do that. Our vet recommended calling Claudia so we did (without much hope to be honest). The turn around was remarkable! She pin pointed the problem and without any cruelty, turned him around in just a few minutes. It was spooky!! And he adored her, she could do anything to him after ONE session- my husband and I were just flabergasted!! Then she taught us how to do what she did and was very patient with us and made sure we understood and could do it. I would recommend her to anyone, trust me, you will end up with what we ended up with A GREAT DOG!! I can't believe we ever wanted him gone, we wouldn't dream off it now! Mary S Long Grove, IL |
Do you use food rewards? No, we do not use food rewards in our dog training as a rule. There are exceptions but they are very rare. What method do you use? It depends on the dog, the problem, and the family. We are very familiar with many different ways to train and we find what works for you and your dog - it has to be one effective with the dog that you are comfortable following through with. It's your dog, you are the boss! We never do anything you are not comfortable with and don't understand. How many sessions do I need to sign up for? One one at a time. You are done when you feel you are done, there is no minimum . Some dogs and families only need one session. We don't even offer long term, after each session you decide if you want to book another one or you can decide to call us when you need to book another one, you are in control. We now have class packages available! What is your experience? Over 40 years, trained dogs for special needs, personal protection, drug detection, and severe behavior problems. I especially like severe behavior problems because they need me the most. For many dogs, this is their last chance and their families are often so broken hearted. It heals everyone and I love it! We also have basic obedience and advanced obedience. My dog bites, I called everywhere and no one will work with him, do you take biters? Yes, we do. We will do a free assessment, and when we know where we stand, let you know if we feel we can help. We then discuss it with you and you can decide if you wish to proceed. Will you come to our house? Yes, we do make house calls, though we have an excellent large indoor facility and most people prefer to come here.
Yes, we do . New- private basic obedience. Dogs learn so much faster and better with one on one toutoring. Six private lessons- $180 . Accelerated training also available and advanced training also available! |

The purpose of my letter today is to tell you thank you for everything you have done for my dog Baxter and myself. I came to you for some specific behavior problems that I was having with Baxter that other trainers did not seem to know how to remedy. You have been able to give me the proper methods and tools to work with Baxter and see positive results. Baxter is a work in progress but let me tell you he has come full circle from where he was before. If I am not mistaken Baxter even looks like he is smiling and enjoying his time when we are training too! I want to let you know that your methods have been very easy to work with and easy to incorporate in my own home. It has been nice to be able to work in a large enclosed area while training with you in the middle ofthe winter. You have been extremely flexible with my schedule and our training appointments and I really appreciate that as well. Thank you again for everything! Sincerely, Christine Behringer

one would help me with my dog. They offered to do a boot camp for 900 a month, or obedience training, which is not what we needed, we needed him to quit attaching other dogs and people, he couldn't even be walked, he was so awful. Claudia got his number within 15 minutes and had him totoally turned around in 2 sessions. It was incredible! Jusy Johnson, Belvidere, IL |
