Ronit's Story:
Ronit began working with dogs using her Alexander Technique skills. Realizing that she needed to know more about dog behavior and training, she began a serious study of the methods of The Dog Whisperer, Cesar Millan, eventually graduating from his course "Training Cesar's Way" in April 2013. Ronit was highly motivated to meet Cesar and to personally experience his energy while he worked with dogs. She was extremely fortunate to be invited onto Cesar's small course at his famous Dog Psychology Center, where she was chosen from a worldwide pool of applicants. In spite of the large expense, Ronit made sure to make it happen! Ronit's knowledge of The Alexander Technique gives her a unique understanding of energy and body language, an integral part of Cesar's method.  Ronit Corry and Anna Breytenbach Findhorn, Scotland 2015
Ronit trained with The Animal Communicator, Anna Breytenbach, as well as Jon Young on a course called "Intuitive Communication and Tracking", at Findhorn, Scotland in 2015. When Ronit saw Anna's documentary "The Animal Communicator" she knew she had to attend the course in Scotland. Ronit improved her awareness of nature and the psychology of animals, which greatly benefits the dogs she works with.

Testimonials and Pictures
"I highly recommend Ronit as a
dog trainer." "I was very impressed by Ronit's dog training. She immediately took control of the situation with our aggressive dog, while explaining what she was doing and how to reproduce those results. She is confident and competent and I highly recommend her as a dog trainer. The change has been lasting and remarkable." Malcolm B., Montreal, Canada 
Working with dogs in Mexico, December 2019
"I can't thank you enough!"
"I can't believe the change in Tolly. He knew exactly what he was supposed to do. Walking was much easier. He's not barking at the back window or at the front door. You're right, it's like you woke something in him which he knew felt right. I can't thank you enough!" Hannah, Montreal, Canada 
"Ronit has an extraordinary gift with animals."
"Ronit has an extraordinary gift with animals. I couldn't believe the change in my 15 year old dog Ruby. Her stiffness went away, she looked younger and was much more playful!" Elizabeth I., Montecito, CA 
"I am very impressed" "Elwood was such a gem for the rest of the long drive home after you worked with him. I am very impressed with how you handled him and what you taught me. I had never seen him so calm and well behaved before! Thank you so much!" Siobhan M., San Francisco, CA |
"She really has become the best dog"
"Josie is like a different dog! She is still frightened of certain noises and people but when the gardeners come now, she runs out to greet them, happily. She used to hide under the stove, shaking just at the sound of their machines. Progress!!!
She really has become the best dog, and honestly I think so often of how you taught me confidence to be able to pass that on to her! And the leash is a God send!
Thank you again 👍🏼 "

"I’m not sure what kind of a trance you put on my dogs, but it’s still working"
"What a great day! I’m not sure what kind of a trance you put on my dogs, but it’s still working 👍 Our exercise time and dinner prep was great. The dogs calmly just laid on the living room floor and the kitchen floor. So calm. We cannot wait to walk them again tomorrow morning and hopefully feel the same calm balance. Thank you for everything. Bob and I are already looking forward to next Friday’s lesson. Take care, have a great weekend!" Laurie C., Santa Ynez, CA March 2020 |

"She does have a touch with unruly dogs."
"Ronit helped me with my German Shepherd who barked at my friends and was dog aggressive. She showed me how to calm him down, maintain control, and spent time desensitizing him to people coming into my home. He was a much easier dog to manage afterwards. Most of all, she identified problems with my friends' dogs that I (and they) were not aware of and helped us deal with those problems.
She does have a touch with unruly dogs. We only had 1 session together as we were all on vacation, but that time together was a game changer. I highly recommend her." Jan, Mexico March 2020

"We are headed in the right direction thanks to you"
"I wanted to thank you for all your great advise you gave us yesterday. We did notice a difference in Zeps behavior today. He was more relaxed and didn't bark as much and even stayed laid down when Tony entered the room. I kept his leash on him so when he started to panic and pace I could stop him for a moment and snap him out of it. It seems to be working.
We have a long way to go but we are headed in the right direction thanks to you."

"You are a miracle worker♡ "
"First of all, thanks to your amazing techniques, Marley is doing great. His house manners greatly improved. He stayed on his rug while we made dinner and ate at the table. He has been so calm, responds to every correction. I actually took him on 3 walks today. We have a mat in our office for him and I even found him asleep on his kitchen rug. You are a miracle worker♡ Gratefully yours." Janet B., Goleta, CA Jan 2020anet |

"It has made a tremendous impact"
"Thank you for all your expertise in dog and human teaching: It has made a tremendous impact on me, which really helps Margie. I’m sure I’ll be calling for your instructions again, after we’ve practiced all you’ve taught us so far.
Happy New Year!"

"Charlie is now 1000 times better"
"I called Ronit for help with walking my dog who would get incredibly anxious whenever he would come in contact with another dog. Charlie would pull on the leash, bark, whine, and pass his anxiety on to the other dog which was making people avoid us when they saw him coming!
We just had our session yesterday and Charlie is now 1000 times better, and he received a nice complement just this morning on the change in his behavior using the techniques we learned yesterday!"

"I recommend her heartily"
"Ronit worked with me for not only one, but three dogs - my own two plus a dog I was fostering. Her calm strength, coupled with her wide-ranging experience and intuitive understanding of canine behavior, brought the perspective we needed in handling our pack + 1. I wish I'd met her 28+ years ago, when I adopted my first dog - how much good she would have done had I known her while training the first 7 dogs! I recommend her heartily - and look forward to leaning on her guidance sometime soon." Heather S., Goleta, CA May 2019 |
"Peggy was amazingly well behaved"
We adopted a senior mini-dachshund terrier named Peggy earlier this year. Unfortunately she had really bad anxiety, was peeing all over the house, and constantly barking at every little noise, visitor and dog in sight. She even bit our niece!
Thankfully we found Ronit, and after three sessions our dog's personality has completely changed. Ronit taught us how to be assertive, calm Peggy's anxiety and even helped us correct her barking response!
We had a dozen friends over this weekend and Peggy was amazingly well behaved- everyone loved hanging out with her. I highly recommend Ronit for all your dog training needs!!

"In just one hour, we were able to
correct his behavior at home"
"Ronit surprised me solving all the issues that we had with Duke. She was able to identify his bad behaviors (and ours!) quickly and gave us immediate pointers and solutions. She was extremely professional, patient, caring, and efficient.
Duke was adopted and he has always been passive and calm, but our walks together were far away from great. He used to pull me, bark and sometimes be aggressive to other people that talked to me. At home if we had someone visiting he would bark at them and nibble sometimes. We searched for multiple options, but Ronit answered immediately and was very helpful even before we decided to work with her. She came over to our home and give us immediate solutions for Duke’s behavior. In just one hour, we were able to correct his behavior at home and make him follow rules when we had visitors. On the second appointment, we were able to walk Duke without any problems! I was extremely impressed by Ronit’s ability to see the problems and find quick solutions to his behavior. She pointed out her techniques and ALL of them worked!
On our final session, we were able to walk Duke in a doggie park, next to kids and he had ZERO reactions, he was calmed and able to follow directions. He has changed for good. We are able to take him places with us and enjoy our walks together. I cannot thank her enough for everything that she has done for us and Duke. Thank you Ronit!"

"It works."
"I am so happy I found you.
You trained me to be determined to let my little Jack Russell know that I am the boss and teach him the needed commands with a firm, calm voice and the same calm voice praising him. It works. Thank you Ronit!"

"She is like Cesar Millan and is a Dog Whisperer.
I highly recommend Ronit."
"I recently worked with Ronit to help me train my out of control barking dogs (10 and 8 years old). She really knows her stuff. Within minutes, my dogs were not barking and following my instructions.
My 2 dogs have very different personalities and Ronit knew exactly what to do for both of them.
She is like Cesar Millan and is a dog whisperer, and it is true that the training is for the human and the dogs just need some guidance. I highly recommend Ronit."

"I feel more empowered"
"Thank you so much for coming and working with Jet and me. The other day we were at a kennel surrounded by other dogs. Jet was at my side with no barking or acting out! He even lay down and relaxed!
I now feel more empowered (no longer frustrated) to help him be a good boy.
Your dog training is a life saver for both of us!"

"You are a miracle worker!"
"The combination of prong collar, raw food, medicine, and energy work - it's amazing. Duke is really doing great. So good on the leash, way better with distractions. He isn't getting on the bed, not barking nearly as much, noticeably more relaxed.
I am overjoyed! And so grateful for all these tools now that help me communicate better with him and be more consistent and amazed at how quickly his behavior has changed. You are a miracle worker!"

"Without Ronit's help, I'm not sure what would have happened to Shaunie, who had TERRIBLE separation anxiety. She chewed $2000 worth of windows and screens! I'm so grateful to have found Ronit and her doggie gifts and now we can actually leave our sweet pooch alone inside or outside of the house without her going nuts!
Thanks Ronit, for helping us learn how to love and take care of Shaunie so she can now love and care for us. We appreciate your dog whispering skills!"

"Thank you so much for spending the time with us yesterday training myself, Anna (young daughter), and Bear. We learned some great information that we have already put into action! Bear is now going to his bed when we ask him (usually) without being stubborn.
Anyway, it was pleasure meeting you and thanks again for your dog training expertise. Anna thinks you are awesome. :)"

"Ronit is truly a dog whisperer"
"Ronit was an amazing find!
We adopted a cute dog from the humane society. When we got home he became very aggressive and bit my husband twice. We were distraught and did not know what to do. I found Ronit online and she immediately got back to me and came over the same day that I contacted her.
The results after 1.5 hours were amazing. She taught us how to make the new dog part of our family. She taught us how to structure our interactions so that our new dog was comfortable and felt safe.
Ronit was particularly patient with my 15 year old son and made sure that he knew the right way to interact with our new dog. My son took her teachings to heart and is now very comfortable with our new dog and our new dog is extremely obedient using a few tips and behaviors that Ronit taught us. She also taught us the best way to make our new dog bond with our older dog. They are fast friends after less than 2 weeks of practice.
