My dog Louie and I had the pleasure of working with Ryann during our online sessions. When I first got Louie, he was a very anxious and sensitive dog. Overtime he did very well in obedience classes and gained a lot of confidence with positive reinforcement training, however he began to develop bad social behavior (lunging and barking at anyone and everything) around our apartment complex, and even tried to bite my roommate.
Ryann understood that Louie was a sensitive and anxious dog and really helped me learn how to correct unacceptable behavior in a way that actually boosted his confidence and made him much calmer. For me, she helped me find the missing component to our training practices and it has made a huge difference in both of us. He also has improved so much with kennel time and gets along very well with my roommate now. Thank you Ryann and Samivy for your help!
