Antoinette understands dogs. She doesn't back away from naughty dogs, or dogs with various types of behavior that would not be acceptable at home or in public. She helps the dogs'owners learn how to train their dogs at home after the weekly classes. If you listen to what Antoinette tells you about training your dog, and you come to class understanding that Antoinette expects you to trust her, then your dog will progress quickly becoming the dog who trusts you and who follows your rules and expectations. Here's an example of what Antoinette can do with an over protective dog who lunged at other dogs and people who walked too close to me, With a lot of work, my dog has become a much calmer dog.

Antoinette and Rettungs-Haus Shepherds has been a God-Send!! We woke up to a 4 week old pitbull on our patio table just over a year ago. After searching for an owner with no luck we desided to keep her. Little did we know what lay ahead. Within a few weeks we found out, Faith suffers from anxiety issues.

I plan on continuing training at Rettungshaus Shepherds for as long as I can. We, my rottie and I, trul
