Arrow“After searching for a new dog trainer, I decided to contact Sarah Rodriguez, and I’m super grateful that I did! She was willing to take the time to meet with me prior to actually starting our training session for my dog Arrow. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable with tons of experience in dog behavior and training, but she is one of the kindest, respectful, hard working, and patient people I’ve ever met. I love her approach to training by using positive reinforcement. I feel like I’ve learned so much about my dogs behavior, and the training has strengthened my bond with my dog even more. I constantly look forward to our sessions because she is such a joy to be around, and makes the training so much fun. She always has a clever solution for any unwanted behaviors that my dogs display, and she creates various methods for my dogs specific needs. Her professionalism is incredible, and I highly recommend working with her!” - Arrow's Mom

Maverick"My puppy Maverick and I had such a great experience training with Sarah once a week via FaceTime. She is so kind, and you can tell that she is very passionate about what she does. At first I was a little skeptical about training via FaceTime however, it was the best training experience I have ever had. Sarah makes training a lot less overwhelming. After each session she would send me a write-up with detailed notes about everything we talked about. This has helped me stay a lot more organized, and constant with Mavericks training. I recommend anyone who is looking for great training to go through Home Schooled Hound!" - Maverick's Mom

Scout"We would like to thank Sarah Rodriguez of Home Schooled Hound for the professional help we received for our shell-shocked rescue dog, Scout. When we first brought Scout home, he crawled along the ground on his belly, fearful of the slightest sound, or movement. He was considered “unadoptable,” which is why we took him in the first place. He was diagnosed by our vet with severe anxiety. He trembled and panted constantly, often working himself into a fever. We didn’t know what to do to help him. Fortunately, we contacted Sarah Rodriguez at Home Schooled Hound and we had immediate success using FaceTime to learn techniques to help Scout cope in his new home. She met with us each week from the comfort of our sofa. We sat on one end; Scout cowered on the other. With her warm smile and comforting voice, she worked with us week after week. She set goals with step-by-step strategies to reach them, showing us how to help our traumatized pup. It was amazing! We were eager to try the techniques Sarah suggested because they helped calm him down right from the start. Her sound and caring advice saved us a lot of frustration and heartache. Thanks to Sarah, Scout is now surprisingly happy." - The Orso Family

Cashew "Sarah was such a blessing to our family. In six weeks she equipped us with the tools to help our family survive the destructive puppy months. Sarah has such a gift for understanding each dogs unique differences and supporting families with their pups. We appreciated that Sarah uses methods that are loving and supportive instead of harsh and aggressive while still having amazing and positive changes in our dogs behavior!" - The Petersen Family
