RINA IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
RINA IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! My dog, Ruger, was showing signs of severe anxiety and towards other dogs and sometimes people after he’d had a bad encounter with a dog. For a while I tried to help him through it by myself but he started showing slight signs of aggression & I ultimately decided I wanted a professional to get involved so I can be sure I’m managing his needs properly. Dogwise’s Administration Team (specifically Olivia, Anita & Thomas) were very helpful throughout the process. I was originally recommended a different trainer due to them being closer to me but I specifically requested Rina and hoped she’d be willing after reading so many of her positive reviews - nothing wrong with the other trainer I just noticed an undeniable happy response to Rina’s training. She did not disappoint. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would. I’d always been on the fence about a board & train because they don’t have always have a good reputation but Rina calmed my nerves with our first phone call. She recommended that I bring Ru to her so I can feel at ease seeing her setup, where the dogs stay, etc. I was blown away. Throughout the 5 weeks that my dog was with her — she sent in depth videos, very frequently, explaining the work she was putting in so it was easy for me to digest. You can trust her 1,000%. She loves these dogs. She has her own as well that interact with the trainees and Ru fell in love with one of her dogs. I hadn’t seen my dog play with another in so long & it was such an amazing thing to watch develop through Rina’s constant communication & photos/videos. I cannot thank her enough.
