A Pawsitive Experience (Susan Ferry dba)

We just completed a seven week course for our recently adopted Mini Schnauzer with Susan. She helped us work through some issues with our newest family member and was absolutely wonderful working with our daughter and our dog together. She knows what she's doing when it comes to all things dog related! I am so impressed with the changes we've seen in our dog and family through working with Susan. We know how to continue training our dog going forward rather than just mastering a few commands. Very empowering to learn as a new dog owner.

So, where do I start. After losing my Molly, a 13 yr old lap dog, my husband wanted to get a Boxer. At first I thought that would be cool especially when we picked up this small bundle of joy and named her Ava. Then I came to my senses as we were both newly retired and now with a high energy puppy who I knew would get a bit Bigger than my Molly. I found an angel in disguise, literally, a high energy red head who knew absolutely everything about dogs of every kind. Our first few days at puppy school were crazy as Ava couldn't get along with other dogs and of coarse didn't listen. After a few days, Susan had Ava eating out the palm of her hand and roaming around the back yard with every bread of dog imaginable. It's been a year now, Ava has grown out of her lap dog stage and is still a high energy Boxer, who now listens and sits on command. After having a few problems walking Ava , Susan gave us tips and articles to read that helped immensely. My neighbors come over now tell us how well behaved Ava has become. I highly recommend Susan Ferry to take care of any dog, teach the owners especially , how to be a dog owner, and teach dogs how to be a great pet. Mary Gugliuzza

We drove six hours round trip to leave our 'little prince' with Susan. He joined the Puppy Paws Program and It was a very good decision. Our once shy, fearful little guy came home with new confidence and is at ease with dogs, cats and people. He takes new situations in his stride and really listens very well. He doesn't charge out the door and no longer dives head first into his food. He waits patiently before eating. He has a lot more self control than he did a month ago. He is still a puppy (nearly seven months old) but has learned so much. A Pawsitive Experience has been a very positive experience for us and our happy boy!!
