General Information:  Renee has been operating Let’s Speak Dog Studio since 2007 after a brief hiatus from corporate.  Her background in dogs includes both sports/fun activities and behavioral modification work.  She has been working with dogs most of her life with activities including 2 years as a veterinary assistant.  As a residential property and business manager , she integrated a dogs in the office program which greatly enhanced the lives of on site residents.   Her own dogs have done TV commercials, The Children’s Reading Program, Therapy work, and participate in a variety of sports and fun activities.  Their accomplishments include:

    Dylan:  10 TV commercials and 2 TV series appearances, Reading with Kids and over 80 visits to nursing homes.  Dyl’s favorite activity is being with people in any capacity

    Sophie:  Sophie is fearful of dogs and is dog aggressive.  Her rehabilitation was a great learning experience for both of us and is the reason we learned about science based training.  She is fun to watch and loves to work.  She enjoys going to trials and Rally is her favorite!  She has qualified over 50 times in the ring with placements.  Sophie’s biggest accomplishment is overcoming her fear of other dogs and now is able to be around, work around, and sometimes (if she feels like it) play with other dogs without aggression. 

Darby:  Our newest addition, Darby has been busy in her short life, which suits her just fine!  At the tender age of 3, she has already earned 12 titles!  She is working on her Obedience titles and learning Agility.  We know there will be many more accomplishments in her future as she likes to be busy-coach potato is not in her vocabulary.  Darby is the result of a special breeding (23 year old semen) from a very special dog, CH Okeechobee’s Talyor Made, OS, SDHF and is a loving companion and special friend to our granddaughter Madi!
