Testimonials
Raising a dog like Snoopy takes a village. He is the epitome of a pandemic baby. Unfortunately, our fear of contracting the virus and the quarantine restrictions because of it hindered his socialization. With everything coming back to normal, our goal is to gradually prepare him for everything he isn’t familiar with aka loving people besides us. Slowly but surely he’s getting the hang of it. Even though there were some setbacks but his paws are still taking big steps!
Thank you so much Diwa Dogs for the amazing work that you do! Snoopy is a testament of positive and fear free training provided by Diwa Dogs. He responds better when he is rewarded and praised. Hope training methods like these are recognized all over the country. We really hope to meet you soon (in person) ❤️
Amaro and I have been doing a lot of work to stop his habit of escaping. I would have been lost and at my wits end had it not been for the amazing Stef from @diwadogstraining. We have not had any incident for well over a month now. I cannot thank you enough for the consult and words of reassurance.
