Most dog training programs use force and dominance techniques. This is proven NOT to work. My training programs rely on the latest in dog behavior to create a strong bond between you and your dog and create positive interactions with your dog as opposed to fearful ones. Then reinforce the behaviors you want.

I can’t recommend Sandra enough! We adopted a wild, energetic, two year old chocolate lab that was out of control. After lessons in our home with Dog Just Visited, our dog Duchess is a different, well behaved dog. We are thrilled with the outcome and it was worth every penny! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ More...

Sandra was recommended to me by the doctor who treated my dog bite wound. We adopted Stanley from the Tennessee Dachshund Rescue Association. Although we knew he had serious resource guarding issues, it wasn’t until he bit me that I realized I had to do something more than just love him. The doctor’s strong recommendation and the fact that Sandra would come to our home helped me make the decision. It seemed like a big investment at the time, but it’s been worth every penny. Stanley goes absolutely nuts when Sandra drives up and, over time, she has helped make him a loving, sociable, delightful dog. Sandra is wise and has the hugest heart for dogs and their families. I trust her implicitly and recommend her without hesitation. Remember that she’s not just training your dog… she’s training you, too! More...

Annie met Aunt Sandra when she was just a tiny puppy. She's now almost a year old and has learned so much, and Sandra has given me the tools I need to work with Annie in between visits. Annie is well mannered and an absolute joy. The bond between Annie and Sandra is unbreakable, and I wouldn't have it any other way. In the spring we will start on off leash training and I know it will be a huge success. There is no one I would trust Annie with more than Sandra. More...

Sandra is an amazing trainer! We couldn’t have picked a better person to care for our fur babies. She is an animal lover and has shown lots of attention and care for our pets. She is trustworthy and dependable and truly cares for people and pets. We are very pleased with her professionalism, knowledge of dogs and their temperaments, and especially her overall caring and loving nature towards all of us. We have a very energetic 18 month Rhodisian puppy, a 7 year old Pondengo/rescue who was being very dominant and a sweet 10 year old terrier mix/rescue. We were having issues with Abbey, the Pondengo, and we were leaning towards giving her away due to being aggressive and fighting with our other two dogs. Thanks to Sandra we are able to keep Abbey and she has agreed to be part of the pack instead of being dominant and aggressive ❤️. Koda and Bella have also received some needed training as well as my husband and I on how to continue training and keep everyone happy❤️ We would highly recommend Sandra (Dog Just Visited) for any of your training needs! She is beyond amazing! I guarantee you won’t be disappointed! More...

Sandra has done miracles for us and our girls, when we first contacted her our dogs had such bad aggression with each other that they could not be in the same room without a fight, we never thought we’d see them together again. Now they are living their best lives and doing things we never thought we would be able to do again. She helped us understand our dog’s behavior and gave us a training plan based off of our needs. I would recommend Sandra and Dog Just Visited to anyone, we could not have gotten where we are without her! She is truly amazing. Us and our girls are forever grateful! ❤️ More...

Dog Just Visited was recommended by Paddle Creek Pet Ranch and I am so glad I took that recommendation! Sandra is absolutely wonderful. Our crew of 3 took to her immediately and she rewarded them with healthy snacks each visit. She was always prompt, made herself available via text for questions, posted proudly about their progress and gave us the support we needed to change and guide their behavior. She made excellent product recommendations too. She is direct and honest, providing expert advice into their behavior and correcting it. Our bunch are all over 50 pounds, one older and set in his ways, one has a boss attitude and the other young and energetic. She helped us with all three in ways we didn't think possible. I would absolutely recommend her if you are looking for the absolute best for your dogs! More...

When I contacted Dog Just Visited, I was beyond frustrated with our dog. Our Stella was acting like a teenager and trying to get her own way all of the time. Sandra was so helpful and loving in helping us to understand our diva's temperament. She took the time to teach us the best ways to interact with Stella in addition to reinforcing her good traits. Thank you for bringing out our good girl! More...

Recommend with no reservations. Sandra is phenomenal. She started working with Summitt who was adopted at 6 months. She was very high strung and hard headed, but Sandra was patient and knew just how to get through and gain her trust. After that Summitt whizzed through all her training sessions. Sandra then assisted us in picking out our newest family member, Beaufort, and began training him as a puppy. Both my dogs are night and day in personality and demeanor, but Sandra understands and knows what will work best and motivate each dog. She’s very accommodating and answers any questions. She genuinely loves the dogs and they love her. You couldn’t choose a better trainer for your dog. More...

I found Sandra by complete lucky accident and I am extremely thankful and happy to have her help. She has been working with me and my two dogs for over a month now and I couldn’t be more pleased! I have a dog that was born deaf. He is challenging but I love him. We have done pretty well together but I had reached a hurdle with him that I didn’t know how to cross. Enter Sandra to the rescue! She has been extremely helpful to me and I am enjoying working with her. She is very insightful and extremely observant. I trust her completely. We have made great progress together in a short time. Instead of anxiety (MY problem she helped me see ) about the issues, I am experiencing hope. Couldn’t have done it without her. Highly recommend ✅ More...

I had just picked up an Australian Shepherd pup last week, his name is Milo, and was having a time crate training him. I did like everyone, I went to the internet for advise. Well nothing seemed to work. The puppy anxiety to the owner was too much. I contacted Sandra through a local website search and made my at “home training” appointment. When Sandra arrived to the home we chatted a bit and with Milo in arms, we were off to an hours (actually a bit over, but who can resist Milo’s Sinatra blue eyes) worth of needed adjustment. It didnt take long at all before Milo was happy and content within the crate. A relief for Milo and me. That evening there was a bit of happiness to see Milo after a great play session to run to his crate to catch a quick nap before going at it again. Back to the original question of what I would recommend about “Dog’s Were Just Visited”.....easy, EVERYTHING! Thanks Sandra, I will surely be calling again for other “Milo tweaks and adjustments”.

Definitely recommend! Since the day I got her, my dog, Roxxy, has had major anxiety around other dogs to the point where I dreaded taking her out for potty breaks - and living in an apartment complex made it even worse! To top it off, she's also been be stubborn and would often totally ignore my commands for some reason or another. Within literally two sessions with Sandra, she's a totally different dog! She still has some anxiety, but we can now walk by the dog park without her losing her mind and she listens much more attentively now. And the fact that things like scheduling and pricing are all super accommodating is a major help, too! More...
