Debbie Cleary, Moreno Valley - December 11, 2007
This is Jolie. She is a two year old Shepherd with a lot of personality. This is the second dog I adopted from German Shepherd Rescue of Orange County. Jolie just finished Basic Obedience and is on her way to Intermediate. As I have said previously, Caroline has become apart of my family. I have known her several years now and have taken all my dogs to her for training. Caroline's knowledge and training ability shows each time in her classes. I have highly recommended Caroline to several friends and family. Caroline and her staff are awesome!! I as well as my dogs thank her for the bottom of our hearts - see you next class.

Linda & Richard Peterson, Mission Viejo - November 18, 2007
We started going to Caroline for dog training about 3 1/2 years ago. We found out about her training facility through German Shepherd Rescue of Orange County. My daughter had just adopted a dog from them and that's where they said to go for training. We had a new puppy at the time and were delighted to find a reputable trainer for him. We have had a few bad training experiences in the past, and we were so glad to have Caroline as our trainer. She is truly a professional and has so much knowledge regarding dog training and behavior. She is always very helpful and answers all of those dog-training dilemmas that plague all of us from time-to-time when raising our puppies. We recently went on vacation with both of our German Shepherds, and people were just amazed at how well behaved they both were. It's so much more fun taking them places when you know you have control. Both of our dogs have passed the AKC Good Citizen Test and they are currently in Intermediate Obedience -- soon to be Advanced. Many thanks to Caroline and her staff at Sirius Dog Training!! |

Karen Bird, Yorba Linda - October 24, 2007
I met Caroline through German Shepherd Rescue Orange County. I took a few dogs through her basic obedience. SHE KNOWS DOGS and wants them to be your perfect pet. I have learned something new each time I have taken a class, and continue to learn in her intermediate class. Caroline offers a long list of different activites for dogs to show off. I recommend Sirius K9 Training Academy for your dogs. |

Cat Profeta, Buena Park - October 11, 2007
Caroline tested one of our rescue dogs in both detection and agility. While a lot of people saw his behavior problems, she saw his possibilities. Caroline's support was instrumental in making Jambie the first GSROC dog to achieve placement in law enforcement. |

Ellen Nygaard, La Habra, Ca. - September 28, 2007
We have been training with Caroline since 2004 and she is always professional, patient and most of all, loves what she does. And it shows. All of our dogs attended Baisic Obedience and we continue with Intermediate Obedience, which is a drop in class, fitting nicely with our busy schedules. We especially love Field Trip class, which is fun and, we think, is one of the best ways to train and test our dogs. We own four dogs, three from rescue and one pure bred. Without the training they received, they would not be the dogs they are today. They are the best dogs a person could want and we attribute that to the training they have received from Caroline and her staff. Caroline you are the best! Thanks! Ellen Nygaard

Dan and Debbie Atkinson, Orange - September 27, 2007
Caroline and the Sirius K9 Training staff have helped us so much with our latest rescue dog, Kodi, a German Shepherd mix. About a month after we got him, we realized he was going to be a challenge. He was out of control on walks, lunging at anyone nearby and wanting to chase anyone moving. We could barely get out our front door without him barging through. Well, he’s in advanced obedience class now, and he enjoys “field trips” to the shopping malls where he walks through crowds without issue. We even went to a restaurant where he stayed calmly at our feet while we ate. Our relationship has improved tremendously! We valued the training sessions so much, we took our other two dogs to class as well. They were more timid than Kodi, but training really boosted their confidence, and they seemed to enjoy the classes as much as we did! Thank you Sirius! |

Vicky Hodge, Fullerton - September 22, 2007
We adopted a funny Basenji/Shepherd mix and he got along well with our Husky. The trouble was he was impossible to walk and lunged at every dog, person, child, bike withing 100 yards of him. We feared we would have to give him up. As small as he was I found it difficult to restrain him.
Then a friend recommended Caroline. The Sirius K9 staff fell in love with Gunner despite his issues and he responded well to the training.
Gunner has become the most loving, reliable and fun dog we know. Everybody loves him and he loves other dogs too!
I tried other training and nothing worked. Thank you for saving our dog! |

Caroline is a great dog trainer and has worked with three of my dogs. All made excellent progress and I am confident they will protect my property and family. Caroline always puts the dog first and that is a good thing. She also comes up with new and challenging scenarios every week - that is the part I enjoy the most. |

BOCAR Boxers, Huntington Beach - September 10, 2007
Our animal rescue has been so fortunate to benefit from the excellent training programs provided by Sirius K9. Many, many of our dogs have attended and completed the basic obedience class through Sirius K9. We have seen exponential improvements in the behavior of our dogs. As a result, our Boxers have become more adoptable, and they have found great new lives in "forever" homes. Boxer OC Animal Rescue is truly blessed to have Sirius K9 as our one and only resource for training. Thank you, Sirius K9, for your excellent work, guidance, and all your help! |

Craig Manning, San Juan Capistrano - September 09, 2007
Nico (my 2 year old Lab/Newfie Mix), and I attended basic and Therapy Dog training (with a few semi-private lessons in between) at the Sirius K9 Training facility in Yorba Linda. The experience and knowledge gained was invaluable in making Nico into a well-behaved, polite K9.
All the instructors are very friendly and understand the human-dog connection. San Juan Capistrano's a long ways from Yorba Linda, but well worth the drive for the invaluable training that we receive from Caroline and the other instructors.
Nico and I didn't pass the Therapy Dog training this time, but we will the the next time the test is given! He's only 2 years old and still acts very much like a pup. We plan on attending more training in the future. Possibly some agility training too?! |

Debbie Wagner, Orange - August 31, 2007
We can't thank Sirius K9 enough for the wonderful training/help they have provided our rescue Yorkies. Let me tell you about just 1 of our problem dogs they assisted. Gus had been passed around to 3 different people because of his bad behaviors. This dog was very loving to his people, but was aggressive to all other animals - even horses. After completing the Sirius K9 Training, Gus was the star of his class and has been permanently adopted by a family with horses, 2 other dogs, and a cat. Gus now gets along great with others and his so happy to be a well-adjusted member of his family. His new mom, Janet, says that his transformation is a real miracle. Thanks for all you do to truly change the lives of these dogs...and their humans!

Debbie Baker, Westminster - August 29, 2007
I only wish I had known of Caroline when I got my first Beauceron as a puppy instead of training him with the wrong instructor for over a year and a half. I'm glad she was able to retrain all the mistakes I had made with him and in doing so gave me the confidence to try to get some obedience and herding titles on my dog. Thanks so much - you're awesome! |

Liz Hueg, Lake Forest - August 29, 2007
Being a volunteer with German Shepherd Rescue, I have counted on Caroline to help keep dogs with obedience issues in homes. She is wonderful at working with the people to help them learn how to understand, and live peacefully with their dogs. She teaches dogs and owners how to set and maintain boundaries, and a pecking order within the home.
On a personal note, Caroline helped me to instill confidence in my dog Odie, who was afraid of everything. With every class, and the success he felt training with Caroline, his confidence grew. He is now a happy, well behaved part of our family.
I recommend Caroline to anyone who has a dog, at any level of obedience. She is the best trainer I have ever worked with. |

My dog and I have been working with Caroline for over two years. Caroline has a gift. She exercises that gift in an ego free environment The dog comes first. The handler and trainer are there to help the dog --- not to satisfy someones ego. I could not recommend her more highly--- in addition it is fun and builds an incredible relationship with your dog!

Caroline has been fantastic to work with to train my two recent German Shepherds. She is an unbelievable trainer, both for the handler and the dogs. I have had german shepherds for over 35 years and I must say that the experience with her has been the very best and the dogs have really responded to her love and care and guidance. |
