"After we got a Terrier pup “Molly” from the Humane Society we discovered that she had some behavior problems (barking, afraid of everything, snapping) that caused us to consider taking her back to the kennel. We found Cheryl with an on-line search, contacted her and arranged for a visit. We were pleased with Cheryl’s knowledge of the dog and her ability to explain “WHY” Molly was doing what she was doing. As soon as she came she asked us what we wanted Molly “Not to Do”. Cheryl then began to teach her to change her behavior all the while showing us how to continue the training. Thanks to Cheryl, Molly is now a permanent member of our family. We would recommend her highly."

"Cheryl really cares about her clients and their success and it
shows. There are a lot of ways to train dogs and we believe Cheryl's way is far and above the others. We urge you to enroll in one of her classes or attend a day at Doggie Day Camp and we are confident you will be as amazed as we are."

"Cheryl Brown's 'Last Paw' classes and private counsel proved profoundly helpful to us, and I highly recommend that any other puppy owner make haste to attend her valuable classes........One would be pressed to find a more informed or passionate teacher."
-Nancy Matthews, Bradenton FL-
"You took into consideration the characteristics of our dog's breed so that we could work around that with his training. You assessed our problems and formulated a plan that was just right for our dog and for us.......Walking our dog is now a relaxing and enjoyable activity for us and for him. Even our four year old grandson is able to walk him."

"She also taught me how to make the basic tenets of dog training fun for both the dog and me. She is a natural who is very knowledgeable about training dogs of all temperaments. I highly recommend her to anyone having issues with their dog, but especially to those who adopt a special needs dog. She is the reason "Wilson" (still a work in progress) is turning into a great pet......................"

Local Dog Trainer
"In addition to her training Mercedez, she also worked with the puppies, to give them a jump start on becoming well behaved dogs. Once they had reached the point that they could be separated from their mother, Cheryl was instrumental in finding GOOD homes for them, carefully screening all of the prospective owners to ensure the puppies would be in good loving homes....................."
-Krista, Sarasota FL-
"She came to our home, analyzed our situation (she watched us ALL interact with one another) and asked me what my goals were for training. She came up with a game plan that we started that evening. The immediate results were very encouraging. Our outings, by car or by boat are now completely enjoyable experiences............ The stressful tug of war days seem to be behind us. Thank you Cheryl."
-Cori, Bradenton FL-
"Cheryl Brown happens to be one of the few that truly stands out from the rest in regard to her dedication, knowledge, determination and most importantly, her genuine love, understanding and respect for our canine friends. She always goes above and beyond…….asking the right questions, digging deeper than anybody else."

"My husband and I found Cheryl to be friendly, outgoing, professional, timely, and knowledgeable........Cheryl began training Bella, or should I say Bella, Jim, and me.............
For socialization, Cheryl took Bella for a short stay in her home in order to use her own trained animals to assist her in Bella’s training. Bella had also had a fear of her collar and Cheryl worked with her to help her overcome the fear with the use of positive reinforcement.......When Bella returned home, we were able to take her for walks on a collar/leash, and she showed vast improvement in the undesirable behaviors."
