Yes
Thank you!!
None of the times you had listed will work for us this go-around. We need a Monday, Tues, or Sat class... if possible
Saint needs 2 things (1)socialization with other dogs (excessive excitement and BARKING)He as almost melted down in vet waiting room. Puppy K with other dogs would be helpful.
(2) General obedience is good, apart from pulling at walks. My hubby and I disagree. I feel he needs something like gentle leader.... as a harness is not enough
Please keep me on you mailing list for upcoming classes.

Dory is amazing! I am a returning client and have full confidence in Dory. I booked a private in home lesson for my son's dog a Shephard mix that we adopted at 9 months; he is now 6 years old and we noticed his separation anxiety had escalated. Not knowing his background before we adopted him within minutes Dory was able to determine while he was in the crate that he has low self confidence probably contributed to something that happened before we adopted him. Dory spent the time to explain behavior, tools for success and worked on training techniques. There was so much that I had forgotten. Dory has given us the tools to work with him to be successful. Looking forward to a group class with Dory in the near future.

Dory is fantastic! She came to Norfolk for an in-home, private session to address some specific concerns I had with my 11 month old pup. I was blown away by how much I learned in just 90 minutes.
She has made such a difference in my confidence as a handler and I'm looking forward to continuing working on what I was taught and taking a class in the future!

Dory Hoffman is an absolutely phenomenal dog trainer. She really takes the time to get to know your dogs personality, the home and circumstances to provide extremely insightful and crucial advice to train your dog. She also gives the best tools of the trade between leashes, toys, treats, deterrents, etc. She's a real professional... highly recommend!

We met Dory at our home with our 12 week old Great Dane Bear. She started training from the ring of the door bell. She takes control and not only is hands on training the dog but also training us. Her knowledge of all breeds is second to none. We since have completed the puppy class and are looking forward to continued classes and training and learning.
We can not recommend her enough.
