I had already had a very poor experience with another trainer I had tried, who thought prong collars, electric shock collars and training by intimidation was the way to go. I can now walk along a street filled with people and dogs without one lunge or bark from my two dogs. All of the training Sherry has provided has been extremely positive and my dogs are incredibly excited when they see her, not fearful. She was exactly what I was looking for in a trainer.
Sherry is a lifesaver. We have two rescued pit bulls and have had numerous trainers in the past that negatively reinforced aggressive behaviors (choke chains, shock collars etc). Sherry introduced us to an entirely new way of thinking about animal behaviors. She was organized, reliable and consistent in her training and empowered us with the right tools to understand our pups and modify their behaviors positively. Thank you Sherry for transforming our deepest fears into an overall sense of security and confidence. We cannot recommend Sherry enough!
We have used her personally and with our rescue dogs for several years now. She explains things from the dog’s perspective and is easy to understand. She has had great results with our puppies and fearful, shy dogs. We recommend her to our adopters without hesitation. We also love her online programs.
What do you need help with?
Reactive Dog Training
Your dog isn’t giving you a hard time. They’re having a hard time.
If your dog barks, lunges, growls or becomes overwhelmed around other dogs, obedience alone isn’t going to solve the problem.
I focus on changing the emotion driving the reaction so your dog can learn to see another dog without needing to bark or lunge.

Puppy & Everyday Training
Puppy biting. Potty training. Jumping. Pulling. Barking. Coming when called. Confidence and socialization.
Learn how to raise a dog you actually enjoy living with — without waiting until small puppy problems become big adult-dog problems.
Serving Irvine, Newport Beach, Costa Mesa, and surrounding Orange County communities.
