Professional, Personalized, and Proven Dog Training!

One night we had guests over and our dog was out of control barking and growling at our guests dog...When she arrived she took control of the situation and  calmed our dog down and told us what to do.When she left everything was calm .This showed the skill of Savannah’s training.She has helped us a lot! I recommend her to help with your training needs.

Thank you to Great Starts Dog Training for really working with both of us! It will be coming up on 1 year of adopting Mr. Scutter, and he's grown so much. Savannah trained me as much as I trained Scutter, I can't thank her enough. She was such a lifeline for my anxious and fearful dog.

Savannah’s positive guidance approach with slowly adding more complex tasks and behaviors into the routine was seamless with transitioning our stubborn yellow lab from a leash-pulling, ear-piercing barker to a self-checking, aware and engaged boy without losing his unique personality...Could not recommend her more and will call on her for all of our future pups in the family.

Savannah is so good with dogs and equally their owners. She is knowledgeable, patient, and just a great person. We learned so much in just 6 weeks. We now have a great foundation to continue training our pup to be his best. It takes a lot of work but it’s so rewarding to see the successes, one at a time.

 I no longer felt comfortable taking him on walks, because I no longer felt like I could safely keep him contained, and I was so scared and worried that he would get away from me and hurt someone, and it felt devastating that I could not take him out and make him part of our family outings... The training was more than having her teach him commands. It was communication. She showed us how to communicate expectations to our dog, how to read his body language, and how to correct unwanted behaviors. I cannot believe how far he has come, and none of this would have been possible without Savannah. I would recommend Great Starts Dog Training over and over again.

Savannah has honestly changed the life that we live with our pup. He was an extremely anxious dog who had a hard time meeting other dogs and people. Savannah handled his anxiety fueled aggression with confidence and taught me how to reestablish the hierarchy in our home so we could all coexist more peacefully. We are so grateful to her and the knowledge she has when it comes to training dogs and their humans.
