Testimonials

"Both of my dogs suffer from lack of socialization, pulling on the leash, aggression toward other dogs, and to a lesser degree aggression toward people. Von Dubinhaus Shepherds have been very patient, knowledgeable, and dedicated to the training of my dogs. They go out of their way to suggest great ideas to help out with their behavior, and our dogs are making progress."

"I completely recommend Von Dubinhaus Shepherds dog training program. What I have learned and put into practice has made a difference in my dog's behavior. Lily is a 14 year old mixed breed that has a serious attitude. Before training with Von Dubinhaus I was fearful to take her anywhere and was a bit hesitant to discipline her when she became aggressive with me as well. I found Von Dubinhaus Shepherds after numerous phone calls to other trainers who said my dog was too old to train. Von Dubinhaus Shepherds told me they could teach me techniques to use with my dog to get her behavior in control. I knew I needed to change my behavior as well. I am so pleased with Lily's response to training. I find I can now walk her in the neighborhood and it is enjoyable to both Lily and myself. She can ride in the car now without growling and barking at everything that moves. Overall we have made great progress!"

"Von Dubinhaus Shepherds have made a real difference in our dogs behavior, although the truth is, he has probably made more of a difference in our behavior toward our dogs. They have taught us how to take back control of our house!! We have four semi-aggressive dogs that function as a pack. We have had problems with them biting neighborhood children, having aggressive behavior toward people coming to our door, getting on the furniture, having accidents in the house, and sleeping in bed with us. In very short time, our trainer taught us how to get the dogs off our bed. They no longer attack people coming to our door, and we can actually take them for walks through the neighborhood without them trying to chase every squirrel or child on a bike. All these changes have occured in just FOUR meetings!! My dogs are still not perfect (who is really!) and I would not yet trust them to pass a boy playing basketball without trying to take a bite out of his backside, but I am now confident that they will someday become socially acceptable pets. I would recommend Von Dubinhaus training to anyone who has a stubborn, aggressive, or misbehaved dog. They take a strong interest in the success of our training and have made many follow-up phone calls to check on our progress and to answer any questions we may have."
