What's Possible for You with a Trauma-Informed System

"I help my clients work through their trauma every day but didn't know how to translate that to dog-speak for my girl that was showing signs of abuse. Marilyn has given me tools and resources to work with the dog that is in front of me on any given day.  I am more attuned to her needs and can anticipate triggering events and work to redirect her before she goes over her threshold. In the event that she does get overstimulated, I have the knowledge to bring her back to center and safety. We have developed a deep bond and I see my dog building trust and resiliency as each day passes.  I am grateful for all of the work Marilyn has done to empower pet owners working with reactive dogs."
