I can't say enough good things about Susan! She has been absolutely amazing with my Australian Shepherd, Toby. From the very first session, it was clear she truly understands dogs -- especially high-energy, intelligent breeds like Aussies. Susan was patient, knowledgeable, and tailored her training approach to fit Toby's specific needs.Not only did she help with obedience and reactivity, but she also taught me how to communicate better with my dog. Toby is now more focused, well-behaved, and confident -- and I owe that to Susan's expert guidance. More...

I highly recommend America's Fairy Dogmother Susan Lewis. We recently adopted a sweet dog named Buddy, who quickly stole our hearts but came with a few challenges, including separation anxiety and some behavioral quirks. Enter Susan Lewis, America's Fairy Dogmother, and let me tell you--she truly lives up to her magical title! From the very first lesson, we saw a remarkable transformation in Buddy. Susan's gentle, patient, and supportive approach not only put Buddy at ease but also gave us the confidence to work with him in ways we never thought possible. She doesn't just train the dog--she educates the whole family, helping us understand Buddy's needs and behaviors better. Buddy struggled with separation anxiety. Susan gave us practical, easy-to-follow techniques that have already started making a difference. Her genuine love for dogs shines through in her work and it's clear she truly cares about each and every pup she works with. Thanks to Susan, we now have a happier, calmer Buddy and feel more connected to him than ever before. More...

Susan truly is our fairy dog mother! We have a very large and rambunctious GSD puppy, full of energy and difficult to control. After just four classes with Susan , our puppy is now already well behaved and knows what to expect from us. Susan has been a lifesaver, and Has a very gentle, sweet and loving approach to training, both dogs and parents alike. I’m so glad we found her! More...

Susan Lewis was a delight to work with. After becoming empty nesters we decided to get a German Shepard puppy. It had been a long time since we had a puppy, and we were a bit overwhelmed with our new baby.
Susan is a gentle loving kind experienced dog trainer and lover of animals. Our experience with her ability and knowledge was remarkable. We were worried that we had taken on too much, but Susan gave us the tools and confidence to bond and communicate with our dog.
She is the real deal. We are pleased with the outcome and highly recommend puppy parents to work the Susan.
