Dear Susie,
I used to walk my friend’s three dogs (two Shepherd sized and a Lhasa Apso) around the neighborhood, while my friend was at work. When they spotted another dog, person, squirrel… you name it, I, weighing in at 110lbs, could barely hang onto them as they strained at their leashes, barking, growling and charging. So when I saw a potential disaster about to happen, I would have to turn around and go back the way I’d come before getting too close. It was difficult at best, trying to walk them. They were walking me.

Then YOU appeared on the scene. In one session, these dogs became companions, walking contentedly at my side. Now when I walk the three of them, if a squirrel darts ahead of us, we just walk calmly by. When we walk past a yard with an enthusiastic dog on the other side of a fence darting back and forth, we all nonchalantly walk past, paying no attention to the frantic dog other than perhaps a sideways glance. When we meet other dogs on our path, we can actually pass them within a couple of feet without incident. If I accidentally drop a leash, they don’t even know it.

They are calmer, without agitation, and seem to enjoy their walks more. I certainly do. It’s pretty amazing. I can’t recommend you highly enough for people who have dogs with “issues.”

Thank you!

Dorje

Dear Susie ,
Learning the dog whispering techniques has been a truly transformative experience for me and my dogs, Daisy, Jesse and Skyler. Learning the technique from you, I found walking them to be a much more engaged experience and lots more fun. I am much more in the moment when I walk them now. Used to be I’d walk in fear that we’d run into another dog and that Daisy would go into her aggressive mode, but no longer! Daisy has even developed some friends recently from our walks…who would have thought that would be possible!

The added advantage is I am now in charge again in my own house. The bed is mine, the front door is mine, even the dog bowls are mine…the dogs now know I am the head of the pack. And I’ve been able to apply what you’ve taught me to new situations, like the addition of our cat.

My friends marvel at the change in the dogs and comment on how well-behaved the dogs are and how happy they seem. We’re a very happy family. Thank you.

Dear Dr. Homire,
Who would have guessed that a 4-lb dog could be such a little terror! Brandy seems much calmer and happier since I took over the “leadership role.” I had no idea I was creating her devilish behavior by what I was doing. Thank you for opening my eyes. She’s like a new dog!

Susie,
Who is this dog and what did you do with our crazy one? Since you were here a couple of weeks ago, Mimi has pretty much STOPPED barking and jumping around like crazy in the car, barking furiously at our guests and nipping at their heels when they try to leave. She lets us take anything out of her mouth without growling and snapping at us. She seems much more content now that we have become the “leaders of the pack,” as if she feels a big weight has come off her shoulders. She GETS it, and I think we finally do too! ? Bill and I are much more relaxed without the constant barking and frantic behavior. We can’t thank you enough!! I never would have believed you could change this dog, but you did! We know that it’s up to us now to be 100% consistent and in charge, and we are committed to doing it.

Thank you so much and please come visit next time you’re in our area!

Dear Susie,
Thank you so much for helping us with our two dogs, Brooks the Chow/Pit bull mix and Digger the dog-aggressive Aussie mix—what a pair! Before you came to help us, they were fighting with each other at least once a week, with the intent to seriously harm one another; we had to keep them separate to avoid further confrontation. We had tried to correct them but obviously we were doing something wrong–and it was becoming a very stressful situation in our house! You taught us how to become the “leaders of our pack” and communicate with our dogs in a very simple, non-violent and effective way and we have erased a serious aggression issue. Now these two guys understand what WE want between them. You helped us regain control and our confidence has grown. After about 6 weeks of working with the dogs, all the aggression was gone and they are happily living and playing with each other, which has allowed us and our eight year old daughter to easily walk our dogs both in our neighborhood and in the parks nearby, with no worries.

Thanks again for everything!

Dear Dr. Homire,
We just want to express our heartfelt thanks to you for saving the life of our dog Charlie. We thought for sure he was destined to be put to sleep because of his fearful aggressive behavior. It has definitely been a process, but we can happily report a BIG difference in his behavior since your first visit to our house. He is gaining confidence week by week. You were right that it would take a lot of patience and consistently being the leader to get him past his fear. It is so worth it! He actually looks forward to going for walks now—we never thought we would see that day!

Thank you so much for your dedication and the work you do to improve the lives of dogs and dog-lovers.

Bless you,
Kevin and Marty B

Dear Susie,
We cannot believe that Treadmark is the same dog we rescued 6 months ago…or that we are the same people! He was the most dog-aggressive dog we had ever seen. Now that we know how to be the leaders of the pack, Treadmark fits right in with our two other dogs—they eat, play and sleep together and are all good buddies. We have four young children, one of whom is 2 years old and feeds Tread, sleeps on top of him and walks him easily on a leash. We take Treadmark everywhere with us now and he is a perfect gentleman around people and other dogs. We are recommending you to everyone we know with a problem dog!!

Thank you so much!
