We worked with Deborah to address skepticism with our golden retriever puppy, Lou. When we began, Lou had a difficult time feeling confident in leashed walks, was scared when we brought on Amazon boxes, and would cower when large trucks drove by or trash cans made noise. Deborah helped us understand that these behaviors were due to Lou’s confidence (or lack thereof), and gave us practical training exercises to help Lou build confidence with new experiences and exposure. Years later, we still think of how empathetic and kind Deborah was with Lou, and how she opened our eyes to the root of Lou’s behavior concerns. She enabled us to better support him as he developed. We highly recommend working with Deborah!
