"I have known Jeanine and her dogs for 10 years and have seen her train dogs to do things that are unimaginable. Who has dogs that take their own dishes to the dishwasher? Who has a snazzy canine for a dance partner?  Jeanine does, and she can help you do almost anything with your dog too!"

Thank you Jeanine for your insight over the past 11 years!"

A Decade of Dog Training Expertise

"Jeanine is an exceptionally patient, knowledgeable and compassionate dog trainer. Jeanine has trained two of our Portuguese Water Dogs over the past 11 years . We have utilized Jeanine's services for private training, group classes, personal and professional advice. Jeanine's been very flexible with our training and even provided sessions in my husband's office-she's very accommodating. Jeanine's demeanor, along with even her own dog's temperaments, lend itself to successful training. Jeanine has visited our home, provided suggestions for new puppy transitions as well as acclimating our elder PWD to the new puppy. Jeanine also provides numerous resources for various holistic and superior pet products.
We highly recommend Jeanine for a comprehensive, passionate canine expert!

Great Puppy Socialization and Obedience Classes

"I raise service dog puppies and have taken three dogs through Jeanine's Professional Dog Training classes -- including the Puppy Socialization Class and Beginning Obedience for Family Manners. Both classes are great for getting your puppy used to other dogs and beginning obedience commands. Jeanine is an excellent trainer and is willing to work on any areas you need additional support in. I highly recommend her classes."

Sarasota's BEST OF THE BEST!

"We had the privilege of using Jeanine's services 16 years ago when we were training our first Wheaten puppy and it was a very rewarding experience. After the death of our precious Shanae, we were not sure that at our senior ages we could handle another puppy again, so our first and foremost call was to Jeanine. It was the best decision we made! 
Our new pup, WYN, is now 25 months old, we have had her since she was 4 months and she is the joy of our lives BECAUSE of Jeanine's patience, positive training, persistence, sense of humor and love of dogs (and their humans!). We hired Jeanine for private lessons as well as attended her puppy classes. We found her skill and training to be irreplaceable and a necessity in our lives for our own knowledge and training as well as for our Wyn. We worked hard and attended more classes through SOTC to which Jeanine introduced us for more group training. Eventually, we realized that we had a young pup who might well turn out to be able to be a service dog for my husband and decided to work towards that goal as well. Wyn loves training, loves to work, loves to have a job and most of all responds well to all of Jeanine's positive training and reinforcement. One of the most important things I can personally say is that Jeanine has something a lot of trainers do not have - she has amazing INTUITION! She notices things that I do that may be confusing my dog and she notices Wyn's reactions to certain things that may cause confusion or missed signals. Most importantly she knows how to make us all work well together and makes it fun! 
Jeanine is always kind, positive, thoughtful, sensitive to what is going on with her clients (humans and dogs!) She is on time and on task. We could not have asked for more. She kept me on task and still does to this day.! Wyn passed a long and difficult service exam (CASD) when she was 22 months old - a real accomplishment which would not have happened without Jeanine's guidance. We will continue to train and improve our skills with Jeanine as long as we have the opportunity. She is tremendously talented and a lovely person! Sarasota is lucky to have her!"

"We were new to the area and needed help with our GoldenDoodle puppy. After much research to find a knowledgeable, professional trainer, I found Jeanine. What a stoke of luck! Not only does she have years of experience training dogs, she has the credentials to back it up. Whether its basic puppy training or specialized service dog work, Jeanine has an uncanny way of connecting with your dog and with you. She listens to what your needs are and finds the best way to teach you to accomplish your goals in a force free way. Thanks Jeanine for a happy, well mannered fur baby!"

The BEST dog trainer in the area!!

A really great Dog Trainer

"We enrolled our puppy in Jeanine's Puppy Training School. Upon meeting Jeanine, our puppy immediately was attracted and bonded with her. Her class was paced for the Pups, using play breaks to both socialize and restore their concentration. Reese is now going on 5 years old and still retains the training given to her by Jeanine. Reese's early socialization with both other pups and people has made her a truly great companion. Jeanine is the best."

"Me and three of my dogs have taken numerous classes with Jeanine - from basic to canine good citizen. She is wonderful with both people and dogs, and patiently teaches you how to relate to your furry friend. I have referred many friends to Jeanine, and will continue to do so."

Best Trainer Ever!
