"When I called Marilyn about our 4-month-old Old English
Sheepdog, she knew right away every problem we were
having and warned me that starting any day now, certain
others would follow.  Before she arrived for our first
appointment, it had all come true!  I think what impressed
me the most about Marilyn’s input was how very personalized it was, especially considering that she sees this
same type of behavior day in and day out.  Her solutions were specifically tailored to our dog and family. She’s a wonderful trainer that truly enjoys working with dogs and people."

         -- ANGELA D., PASADENA

"Harley’s jumping and barking were totally out of control when we first got him.  Our trainer in Boston showed us a few tricks, but they did not seem to have any effect on
him.  Once we moved to L.A., he started growling at us as well as his vet!  At that point, our vet recommended we call OBEDIENCE BASICS for some solid training aimed at

straightening out our relationship.  You did it, and the things you taught us will last a lifetime!"  

        -- PETER F., ARCADIA

"You're a straight shooter.  I like that about you.  I'd never considered that Rajah might think he's the Alpha.  I think when you said he expects to be greeted first and/or longer,
I let out a big "Ahhhh" of recognition...because you're absolutely right.  He and I are going to have a little conversation.  In fact, we're going to have several.  I'll let
you know how it goes.  Thanks so much for all your time and
for sharing your (brutally enlightening) wisdom!"

      -- MARK J., SOUTH PASADENA

"Sarah was just a big, goofy, St. Bernard pup, with no co- ordination or understanding of her own strength. Her favorite game was chasing Chester (my cat) around the house and under the bed – until one day her nose got swatted with  those claws!  After that, it was outright war.  You helped me understand the benefits of positive training techniques and really turned things around. Thanks for putting my family
back together."

        -- KATHLEEN O., ALTADENA

"Working with OBEDIENCE BASICS
was the best thing I could
have done for all of us.  Your techniques are very easy to understand, and the written backup has proved invaluable –especially for a first time owner!"

      -- IVY D., PASADENA

"My neighbors recommended their trainer, OBEDIENCE BASICS, so I took their (not-so-subtle) hint and gave you a call!  In less than two weeks, Sophie’s incessant barking had stopped completely, except when someone was at our door.  Thank you for fixing – without force – something we thought we were stuck with for life."

      -- PATTI C., GLENDALE

"My two little guys had every behavior problem known to man.  It got so bad, they were even banned from their groomer, but thanks to you motivating me, we stuck to the training and now, sure enough, they are both 'spoiled perfect.'” 

      -- RICHARD S., SAN MARINO
