Synergy Behavior Solutions

I have been taking my dog to Synergy for a few years now. I cannot say enough good things about them. My dog has gone from an anxious, reactive dog to a happy, outgoing pup! Their trainers are amazing and my dog LOVES working with them. They have taught us so many good skills! Their online training and classes have been really helpful.

We just wrapped up Synergy's online Walk With Me and Reactive Rover classes with Lorena. We learned a lot and really enjoyed Lorena's game-focused approach to training and have been happy to see progress in our dog, Lucy. In the past, we have used a couple different trainers but we were either uncomfortable with their methods or didn't feel like they answered our questions. Lorena's classes filled in all the holes which was so great. We're sad not to have our weekly classes anymore but hope to train more with Lorena in the future!

My wife and I have been clients for 6 months now. We have been extremely pleased with our entire experience there, from the initial evaluation process with Dr. Valli through group educational classes, individual training sessions with three different members of their training staff and participation in webinar lectures and active training sessions using Zoom. All of the trainers are exceptional. They are patient, friendly, and extremely informative. You can tell that they truly love animals. They are helping us better understand our reactive little Sheltie. We are making progress with some complex issues with our little guy. I also need to mention Scott and the other quality individuals who manage the business, handle the phone calls, schedule the sessions and coordinate the comings and goings of the pets and pet parents. Hats off to them for quickly adapting to this whole Covid thing. The Zoom sessions work really well.

When I decided to rescue my sweet boys, my goal was to find fairly “broken” dogs and help rehabilitate them. I didn’t want to find the perfect happy dog that would easily get adopted, I went for the dog that was about to be put down for sever separation anxiety - my Rhodesian Ridgeback/boxer/pibble mix, Koda. My next rescue was the runt of the litter off the streets that was terrified of just about everything and extremely terrified of humans...a shiba inu mix who bonded with Koda. So now at this point, I have a 1 yr old and a 3 month old that are bonded and while I thought I had a clue on how to help them, the next couple years would prove to be way more challenging than I thought, and path after path that we tried with training helped a little, but not nearly the drastic changes I was hoping for, and both my boys were still fairly “broken” and not enjoying life as they should. That was until we heard of Lorena with Synergy and all the amazing new thinking and training techniques they are doing. I first watched Lorena’s Live video about the wild pups class they were putting on and from that moment on, our lives have changed for the better! While I’m only a couple months into this new training, the results I’ve seen have been like none other! My dogs don’t care when we leave the house, they aren’t stressing, their recall has increased tons, their body awareness is increasing, they are finally learning to choose to be calm and to leave stressful situations, they play more and already we can see that they are enjoying life more than ever before. They listen, they engage, and they are finally going to be able to live a happy balanced life! Lorena, I truly cannot thank you enough! Your knowledge and skill base on how humans and dogs think and behave is incredible and I’m very much looking forward to continuing down this path! Huge thanks and palms pressed for sharing this info online and with the world!

I just had my first experience with Synergy, participating in a webinar about calmness for canines, (not to mention their people. ) The webinar was well-organized and professional. The presenter, Lorena, was friendly, open, animated and non-judgmental. She responded quickly to questions and comments. I’m really starting to understand what the world is like from my dog’s point of view.
