As a Director of Boston Buddies, Inc., Southern California Boston Terrier Rescue I can unequivocally say that Kerianne and Beyond Behavior K9 Training have been such a blessing to us in our efforts to rescue and rehome needy Boston Terriers in Southern California. When we have a dog come into our rescue that is in need of behavioral assessment and training, we call Kerianne, and she steps in to assess the dog and guides us in our decision to pursue a board and train program for the dog. Kerianne uses her skills and knowledge to help the dog become a candidate for adoption in our organization. Her ability to help dogs whose history is unknown (something very different than a dog with an owner who can supply information on triggers and life experiences) has been lifesaving to numerous dogs throughout the years. Indeed, her outstanding results with our rescued dogs often result in our adopters sending their other dogs to her for additional training! The fact that she is doing this exceptional work in a home setting is very different than many dog training academies – it allows the dog to learn a new way of living and learning new rules in a setting similar to what they will be going home to. Her exceptional skills go beyond dealing with dogs – she is outstanding at teaching owners how to better communicate with their dogs and set the rules to allow a happy and fulfilled life in a home of their own. She takes the time, one on one, with owners showing them the new skills their dog has learned and the steps they need to take at home. She is always available for questions and advice and her social media feed is full of priceless information that she freely shares to help all of us provide our furry family members with the best life possible. Kerianne has had a positive impact on so many lives – both two legged and four legged. We cannot recommend her enough.
