Mary's Angels Dog Training

We took Mary's shy dog class and it was fantastic. Meeka (our dog) wasn't socialized and she's fearful of just about everything. Mary was very considerate, understanding a fearful dogs needs and keeping the class very small with the dogs hidden from each other. Mary taught us how to help Meeka come out of her shell by clicking and treating when appropriate, dealing with distractions, loose leash walking and many, many other helpful tips. Thank you Mary!

Mary has the "gift." She's alturistic and truly an artist who's intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, physically and financially connected to her life's work. Training dogs. You could call her a "dog whisperer. Mary worked with "Duke," my 2 year old male Yorkshire Terrier, for a month. I had great trepidation Duke was going to get himself into physical harm. Plus his constant "bark, bark, bark," was getting annoying. Mary has a system to devleop a dog's ability to focus and concentrate. A big part of which was training me. Before Mary worked with Duke, whenever I opened the front door he treated it like a jail break, and soon it was like he was shot out of canon, running all over the neighborhood with me in hot pursuit.That was terrifying! We worked specifially on getting Duke to "Stay" when the front door opened. Now when he hears a knock on the door Duke looks up and focuses on me and doesn't charge the door. What a change and a relief! Duke is now calmer. But the thing I most appreciate is I see Duke on a signficantly different level than before Mary started working with us. Mary showed me the different types of barks and behavior Duke was using to try and communicate to me. Duke's my fourth dog in 40 years. I thought I knew dogs. In reality I was an imbecile. Very grateful for Mary's professional skills, patience and her unique telepathy with Duke. Thanks Mary! Bill Fox Novato
