Deanna's Positive Pups
Testimonials
“Every testimonial is a thank-you from a dog who feels understood.”

Lilly Bear
Basic || CGC
Don Francis
“Lilly Bear was found as a puppy with her mom and litter, who had been abandoned. She has always been very observant, cautious, and fearful. For years, Deanna has worked with Lilly in group classes and private sessions, and Lilly is doing so much better. Lilly still has a ways to go, but through the training, she has learned to trust us, and lots of good behaviors too. Before training with Deanna, our family wasn't able to do certain things because Lilly wasn't socialized and couldn't be left with a dog sitter. Now, we can have more fun because we have been through this training with Lilly.”

Coco Bean
Basic || CGC
Ashley Jones
“Coco Bean is a rescue who was found as a stray roaming around alone when she was a 9-month-old puppy. She is reactive to other dogs, and it takes her a long time to trust humans. Deanna has worked with our family for years to help Coco work through these challenges and have an enriching life. She has dedicated hours and hours of her time in private lessons and group classes to working with Coco, and the results are amazing. Coco isn't the same dog. She still has work to do, but her life is better, and our family can do things that we couldn't before because Coco has learned skills, and more importantly, trust.”

Skipper Doo
Basic || CGC
“Skipper Doo is a rescue who lost his owner and is working through that traumatic experience. He immediately developed a strong bond with my husband, but doesn't want to let anyone else close enough to bond. Routine things like walks and trips to the vet were challenging, and we needed help. Through months of private lessons and group classes, Deanna helped us make this situation comfortable for Skipper so that he felt safe, and manageable for our family while our little guy builds trusting relationships. It's going to take time, but now that Deanna showed us what to do, we are confident that we will get there. In the meantime, Skipper is making progress every day. He tries new things and steps out of his comfort zone. He works hard for each breakthrough, and we love to celebrate them with him and share them with Deanna, who made this all possible.”
