“My rescue Chihuahua, Marge, had a very unpleasant demeanor towards other dogs on walks. Since working with Miriam, and taking Marge on downtown walks as part of her training, Marge can now pass by other dogs with very little reaction. She has even gone to the dog park and is able to play along the side without reacting to the other dogs!”

“Our two dogs love their walks but the younger of the two, Beasy, is uncomfortable around other dogs and has to be on a gentle walker harness and muzzle. Learning how to gauge Beasy’s reactions and allowing her to be around more socialized dogs has improved her level of anxiety. We are finally able to be in more situations with both dogs as they learn to enjoy the wild outdoors.”

“Otis, a relatively new rescue to our family, loves to play with other dogs in the dog park. Sadly he misreads smaller dogs’ actions and goes into prey drive and attacks. We are working with Miriam to help Otis be welcomed back to the dog park after his last bad incident. Socialization, watching his signals and helping him to take time outs are all part of his road to redemption to be dog park ready soon.”

“Miriam is an excellent dog trainer. Her eBooks are great — they are easy to read, understand and put into practice. Miriam’s loose leash & recall training tips really do work and her puppy training eBook is ideal for new owners. Highly recommended! We achieved our goals while working on-line with Miriam.”

“Our neighbors were beginning to complain about our sweet dog Bandit and his new habit of constant barking. Working with Miriam previously, I contacted her and was able to get the guidance and tools I needed to diminish most of the barking from 700 miles away.”
– Jackie Jorgenson

“Our dog was not comfortable with house guests’ dogs and it became a problem once our daughter started to come home for visits from graduate school with her new puppy. After an awful summer visit we contacted Miriam to get ready for Christmas so we did not have to watch for fights or keep the dogs apart from one another. After working with her, our dog was able to exist with our daughter’s dog in the same room. We still feed them in different rooms and no bones are ever around, but we are now able to look forward to visits again.”
