What our Clients Say

"Our goal was to raise a happy and healthy dog. Cynthia has been instrumental in our ability to accomplish this. She provided us with invaluable advice before we even picked up our Cooper. Cynthia is such a trusted source that we know we can turn to whenever we have questions about behavior, training, and obedience. Cynthia’s puppy teaching fundamentals have changed our lives, and Cooper’s, for the better!"

"I own a pet boutique in our downtown community and have seen a ton of great dogs and a ton of … not so great dogs. Cynthia has been bringing her dogs, and the service dogs she raises into my boutique for years. I have been able to see her approach to training that guides these puppies into being easy going, and happy dogs. I asked Cynthia to work with my family to train our new puppy, Bohdi. Cynthia’s approach is to work with you to train your dog. Cynthia has years of experience and is able to help us work proactively to stop problems before they became problems. For example, Bodhi was digging in our backyard at just 3 months old. Cynthia talked us through how to prevent that before it became a real problem with a much older, larger dog. What we love most about working with Cynthia is that everything is done in a positive method and addressed before it becomes much harder to fix. Bohdi is becoming a great dog and we are so excited knowing how to continue on this path we’ve been able to create."

"Bucky is the first puppy we’ve had in a long time. Cynthia was able to spend time working with us before we even brought him home. This was an invaluable experience. Cynthia took into account our lifestyle, home layout and told us what to expect. This was so helpful and made us feel prepared for our first few nights. We have been able to build a wonderful, consistent foundation for Bucky and our household. Bucky is a confident, happy and very well-mannered dog. He is great in the house, on walks, and he loves car rides. So many of the techniques we learned through Welcome Bone have contributed immensely to his, and our, well-being. We really love the positive coaching and love how much our family, working with Cynthia, have built such a strong bond with Bucky."

"We really value and appreciate Cynthia’s positive approach. Winston is the first dog in our family, and we were both excited and nervous at the same time about welcoming him home. Cynthia spent time working with us to make sure we had the tools, knowledge and plan to start Winston, and us, off on the right track. Winston knows so much more than our friend’s puppies. We can recognize that it’s the tips and knowledge that Cynthia gave us right from the start. All of our work with Winston is on very positive reinforcement training. We love the results and Winston has a blast learning, too."
