Puppy Love Dog Training

Cindy was wonderful. She was warm, empathic and effective in her work w/​us and w/​Trillium. We hired her shortly after Trillium joined our family, a rambunctious 9 month old English Setter puppy. We had intended to get a 2 or 3 year old dog rather than a puppy, but our previous dogs’ breeder put us in touch w/​Trillium’s breeder and I fell in love w/​Trillium after seeing her photos. Sadly, having Trillium brought us face to face w/​our physical and other limitations and we realized that we wouldn’t be a good fit w/​a puppy. Cindy extended herself in many ways, taking Trillium out for training sessions alone, looking for other home options for her, supporting us in our decision-​making process. She gave us great ideas for keeping Trillium’s front paws off kitchen counters and dining room tables, although Trillium found clever ways to get around them. After about three weeks we ended up contacting Trillium’s breeder, who found her a new home up near Redding. We met her new «mom» Saturday morning in Vacaville and made the transfer. They will be a much better match. Eventually we will get another, more mellow and mature dog, but Cindy gave us a lot of emotional support during a very difficult time. I would strongly recommend her to anyone seeking a good dog trainer.

I agree with all of the wonderful comments about Cindy and Cindy’s Puppy Love. I started with Cindy immediately when I got my 8 week old puppy. He’s very high energy and I had her come over to play with him twice a day while I was away at work. At 12 weeks he started doggie day care. I can’t say enough positive things about the care he has gotten. I was concerned because I knew he’d be the youngest/​smallest when he first started but Cindy made sure he had top notch care and Sunny has adapted fabulously. He has his favorite playmates but loves all the members of the doggie day care pack. He absolutely loves Cindy. On mornings when I’m getting ready for work, Sunny sits by the front door and whines. I know he can’t wait to go to Cindy’s Puppy Love! Sunny comes home happy and tired and that makes me happy too. I also receive training from Cindy and she really understands doggie mind. Sunny would not be the well adapted, healthy, well mannered dog without her.

Raaaaaroooooo! Cindy is beyond the «female dog whisperer»! Do as she says, do as she does … and your pups will be well behaved, eat when it’s time to eat, know what to do and when and … much much more!
Beyond talented … this woman is gifted!

Love Love Love Puppy Love! Cindy is the best! Gracie spends 2 – 3 days a week there and truly enjoys herself every time! I really don’t know where we’d be without Puppy Love.
Thanks Cindy!

Cindy was an absolute life saver when we rather suddenly ended up with a lab puppy — she amped it up to ‘walks on water’ when we brought a 2^nd puppy — a rescue shiatsu mix — home.
She is incredibly reliable, a true dog lover, extremely trustworthy, and fiercely knowledgeable about how to best work with and train your dog (s).
She is also very versatile — I can’t imagine an owner /​pet scenario where she wouldn’t be a godsend. We have kids and she has been terrific in both relating to our kids about the dogs (our kids love her almost as much as our dogs do) and working with the dogs to make sure everyone stays safe.
She is highly, highly recommended to all parties. Thank you Cindy!!!

Cindy has been a great asset to our 4-​legged canines! When we were going away on vacation, we knew we wanted to board with her for one of our dogs as she helped us with private dog training at our house when we adopted our first dog. We knew that our young dog would be in good hands as she lives next to a park and has a large pool in an extra large yard! She has plenty of dog beds and water bowls in and outside of the house and the fact that she takes all of the dogs on daily walks is awesome. Her rates are also fairly inexpensive compared to other establishments and the fact that she has a beautiful home is well worth it!

Puppy Love inspires confidence the moment you arrive. Cindy is friendly, knowledgable, and 100% reliable. Cindy is also an experienced dog trainer. She runs an organized, structured but fun doggie day care. The property is very dog-​centric with lots of play space, self-​filling water bowls flowing, cots outside and plenty of cushy dog beds inside. There’s even a pool for hot days!
The dogs go on leash walks (so they are not at risk for getting hurt or lost) in the State Park that meets Puppy Loves property. They learn how to walk in a group and without puling on the leash.
CIndy really works to meet the individualized needs of your dog. I have a somewhat sensitive little mutt and an older puppy. Cindy makes sure the sensitive guy isn’t overwhelmed with bigger dogs by giving him a break in another room or in her lap when needed. She makes sure both dogs are following rules of good behavior and appropriate play.
I feel so comfortable leaving my dogs at Puppy Love — I know they will be very well taken care of.

Cindy is wonderful and Olive loves it there. She spends one or two days a week at her house and whenever we pull up, she tries to leap out of the car to get inside. When I get there to pick up my dog, Cindy always tells me what kind of day she had, who she played with even when the last time she pooped (who the hell wants to keep track of that) but it’s so you know what your dog may or may not have to do. She is excercised, socialized, exhausted, happy and I think reluctant to go home.

Cindy is the best around. I have complete confidence in her and would recommend her to anyone needing dog training or pet care.
