Jung is such a patient trainer to work with. My dog Strawberry needed a slower approach and Jung was able to go at Strawberry’s pace. We tackled multiple issues in a session and improved each week. She even showed my children some training techniques so we could help Strawberry be more settled in our new home! She is calmer and barks so much less now. I can’t recommend Jung enough!

Jung is the best at helping you not just correct behavior but understand your dog and form a deeper bond. My little dog, Luna, is a 3 1/2 year old chihuahua mini schnauzer. We got her at 12 weeks to be a companion for my disabled husband. We lived on 5 acres and she spent hours a day in his lap. In January we had to move as her daddy was dying and her heart was breaking. Imagine moving from where she had been to assisted living, having your person missing from your life and now learning to accept [me as] her new person.

On top of it all, Luna was afraid of everything…people, animals and even leaves falling off of trees. I really thought I needed to rehome her where she could be happy again. My goals for Luna were to have her stop growling at everyone, being dog aggressive and walk on a leash which was a new skill and most of all be a happy little pup. Jung came to the rescue!!! Her gentle demeanor helped me see that I was feeding Luna’s anxiety as she felt my fear that she would bite.

People who knew Luna from the start all comment on how she changed. Even the vet who had seen her in February was amazed at the transformation. We were blessed to meet Jung at the vets office where I stopped her and asked for her card. That chance meeting has changed our life. Whatever your goals are for your pet you won’t go wrong with Jung as your pet parent coach.

Our 2 1/2 year old chocolate lab, Kodi, loved Jung! I truly appreciated how friendly, patient, kind, and persistent she was with her. Jung helped make our walks less of a wrestling match (yay!) and with some dog etiquette too. She also helped acclimate Kodi to a gentle leader and cement some basic commands that were not really consistent before. Jung was always happy to share different training tips, tricks, and insights into dog behavior that we could incorporate when on our own. We all enjoyed working with her!

Jung has been a true pro at reinforcing good behavior and ensuring that our Shih Tsu, Isla, responds promptly to coming when called. We've also really appreciated Jung's focus on positive reinforcement and her patience during training sessions (both dog and owners).

We highly recommend Jung to any dog owners looking to improve their dog's behavior and strengthen their bond. Jung is an incredible trainer who is professional, knowledgeable, and kind. We absolutely adore working with her!

I reached out to Jung, because I was looking for a trainer that could build confidence and focus with my extremely sensitive German Shepherd puppy.

Jung is incredibly knowledgeable in reading my dog’s behavior signs. She uses kind coaching by demonstrating the skill and then patiently works with me to apply it. Jung’s extensive skill set in this field and her approach so effective.

The training experience has been so interesting and successful that I will be continuing on working with Jung for my dog’s “teenage years”.

I am beyond happy.

When it comes to rescues, you're never really sure what you're getting into with their personality and needs. I adopted Pelican, a 11 pound yorkie mix when she was 6-7 years old and have had her about 3 years. As we've grown together, she has become increasingly more fearful of large breeds, often lunging and barking on leash.

Jung always put both Pelican's and my needs first, going beyond training tools by making recommendations on gear, treats, motivation, and management tactics. I'm looking forward to continuing training with Jung so I can be the best dog owner possible for Pelican!

Ms. Maya is a 3 year old German Shepherd/Plott Hound mix and a total bundle of energy. She loves people and has always had a hard time controlling her excitement as a puppy. However, jumping up to say Hi at almost 60 pounds, is no longer cute.

Jung was amazing with training both Maya and me! I appreciate the feedback she gave me to better understand Maya as her mom and to train her outside of our sessions. Jung was a total delight to work with- would highly recommend!

I have been training my dogs, April and her son, Nene, with Jung and it has been a huge help for me. When we started my dogs didn't know sit or touch and now they do. Jung also helped my dogs calm down sooner after the door bell rings and in the company of more people and other dogs.

—Melani

Bailey is a 2.5 year old Blue Heeler who is very sure that what she wants is right. I'm so glad that we had Jung as our trainer; Bailey loved her and would almost wiggle her butt off when she saw Jung coming. Jung helped us to make training more fun, which was beneficial to Bailey and me. I have more confidence that Bailey will listen to the directions I give.

—Rachel

Jung is a dedicated and talented trainer. She developed instant rapport with our Shih Tzu, Gus, and the payoff of her work with him was immediately apparent in his behavior and demeanor. (Besides that, he absolutely loves her!) Jung clearly loves dogs and understands them incredibly well. If you’re looking for a kind and talented trustworthy trainer who will deliver solid results, then look no further.

Jung helped me improve my 9 month old, miniature Australian Shepherd, Gary's recall and loose leash walking. Off-leash, he would not come when I called him, which scared me for his safety. On-leash, he would pull like crazy. At home, he listens fine but outside, all bets were off.

I live outside of San Francisco and did a remote behavior and training evaluation with Jung. It was fantastic. It's been a few weeks since our session and Gary's behavior has much improved.

Jung is super knowledgeable and passionate about supporting dog parents like me. I highly recommend her!

My puppy, Luke, is a small chihuahua/poodle/terrier mix who started training with Jung when he was 6 months old. By coaching me on basic commands as well as demonstrating strategies for leash training, potty training, and socializing, I was able to continue practicing those lessons with Luke on my own. I would definitely recommend her if you're looking for a patient trainer for your new pup.

Jung is a fantastic trainer. She’s reliable, communicative, and highly professional. She loves and respects dogs deeply and only uses positive reinforcement. Jung plans and guides sessions focused on the top needs/goals you have for your pet. She’s very attentive to meeting these goals and is good at finding extra training opportunities alongside when time allows. We like how she offers pup parent coaching, as well as direct training for your pet to speed up the process and observe her training.

We worked with Jung on polite walking, leash frustration and calm greetings for our 1-year-old mini schnauzer. She also helped us prepare to fly for the first time with our pup (a 5.5 hour roundtrip flight to NY). Jung helped us get our dog to the point where she LOVED her carrier and even scheduled one of our trainings to be a test run at the airport. Both our flights were incredibly smooth, and it was 100% thanks to Jung’s training. Having the preparation and peace of mind from Jung’s sessions helped us and our pup feel confident going into that new experience. We would recommend her to anyone looking for 1:1 training for their pet.

We've had such a fantastic experience working with Jung! She’s been instrumental in helping us with our two dogs, Murphy and Ripley, including reactivity with other dogs, leash frustration, and leash pulling. Ripley, who is extremely energetic and easily distracted, has made great progress thanks to Jung’s calm, patient, and positive approach. It has made all the difference and it’s clear she genuinely loves working with dogs (and the people who love them!)

Her deep knowledge of dog behavior and psychology really shines, and she explains everything in a way that’s easy to understand and apply. On top of that, she provides notes after each session, product recommendations and simple, actionable homework assignments to help us continue making progress between sessions.

Beyond her expertise, Jung has a special way with dogs—Murphy and Ripley absolutely adore her. Her personalized approach have made training a positive and rewarding experience for all of us. We couldn’t be happier with the results and can’t recommend Jung highly enough to anyone looking for a skilled and compassionate dog trainer.

Working with Jung at Pawsitive Training, is my first experience with one on one dog training. I am very pleased with the progress my dog and I have made.

My goals for the training included getting my 3 year old Boston Terrier, Olivia, comfortable around my new grandson and being gentle and calm around him. We also worked on getting Olivia not to react with fear behavior (snapping and rushing up) when approaching other dogs.

Before we began training, I thought we would be changing Olivia to make her a “good” dog. Instead, Jung patiently taught me how to understand why Olivia was fearful, watching her movements, and then we worked using positive rewards to replace the fear with positive associations. I feel so much more in control now. My connection with Olivia has deepened, she is no longer fearful of babies, and she walks right past dogs without reacting now. We practice every day and working with her is fun now and so rewarding. Thank you Jung for your kindness and insight.
