Customer Reviews

Thank you so much Ronit for helping with our dog, Smousy’s reactive behavior! Here’s our review: At the get go, Ronit had our dog, Smousy’s attention and respect. In a short time with Ronit’s interventions, we saw a very significant improvement in Smousy’s behavior. We’re still learning and practicing the new interventions, and Smousy’s doing so well! Ronit was so easy to work with with her calm pleasant demeanor and her keen, intuitive, and astute ability to lead Smousy! And even with our neighbors’ dog too!! (Our neighbors’ dog joined our last session). Smousy has been eager to please and change her ways. We’re the ones who needed the training, and Smousy’s going along with it! Our neighbors have noticed and commented that Smousy has been much calmer since our training sessions with Ronit. Thank you Ronit! - Mark and Sherie

Ronit made me feel a lot more confident by teaching me my dog's style of learning and how to read his body language. Since learning this, he has listened much better, he has been less anxious, and walks on a leash the best he's ever walked. She taught me what a proper on leash dog meet looks like and it has greatly improved our walks! We have been to a couple different trainers, but I feel like Ronit made me really connect with my dog to help me to understand him better. Thank you so much!

Ronit has a beautiful, calm, clear energy and amazing ability to communicate both verbally and non verbally with both dogs and people. She is a pleasure to work with and makes a huge difference. We were having difficulties teaching our young puppy basic obedience like “come” and “stay” and he was starting to get a little unruly. From the moment Ronit arrived, she had our puppy’s attention and brought out his best qualities and natural desire to “work” and obey commands happily and with ease. She taught us to relate with him in the same way and we’ve had a total shift for the better. When it came time to introduce the leash, within minutes she had us and him walking pleasurably together, with no pulling, on a relaxed leash. Our enjoyment of our new puppy and developing relationship with this dog who will be in our life for a long time has a solid foundation and has been greatly enhanced by the time we spent with Ronit. - Santa Barbara, CA
