Tiffany
Dog Training
Depsy was a delight to work with. She comes with several different techniques if your dog doesn’t adapt to the first. She is kind, flexible and effective. She even went out of her way to slightly alter our training plan to maximize the benefits for our dog. I couldn’t make classes every week on a certain day that other training companies offered but Depsy was willing to work around my schedule completely. I am beyond grateful for her care and helping my puppy! Five stars all around! More...

Thank you so much, Tiffany. Working with you and Foxy was so fun. I'm glad she is responding well. I will stay in touch and I look forward to seeing you both again soon at a Meet Up at the Park.

Dog Training
Depsy provided high quality training with great insight, patience and no rushing. The 4 week initial course was a great refresher after not having trained in a long time and my pup showed immediate improvement. Thank you for everything!

What do you love most about your job?
We love helping people establish a loving, balanced relationship with their dog. The world of dog training is full of controversy. Group classes teach people to bribe dogs with treats. Board & train facilities primarily use shock collars to scare dogs into submission. At Building Bonds Dog Training, we find fulfillment in teaching people about building a bond -- the foundation is leadership and boundaries, following/obedience is the natural byproduct and trust/respect is the lasting effect. Trust and respect reinforced over time replace fears, anxieties and aggressiveness.
Why should our clients choose you?
At our first meeting, we ask a lot of questions and listen carefully. Together, we set goals that are realistic and achievable. Private, in-home lessons, reinforced by daily walks and practice, is the best way to get lasting results. It takes work but it's worth it.
