Training With Respect & Understanding
That was some of the best $ I've ever spent. Having him do the 2 weeks stay with you and training. He's doing great. He's still very obedient, and he knows his commands. I'd do it again in a HEART beat. JM in Placerville about her dog 'Tytin'

The play group was fantastic. My dog 'Charlie' has five acres to run in, but he got far more exercise playing with other dogs at the play group session and was a happy tired dog. He can't wait till the next playgroup! For those that can't give their dog enough exercise or socialization this is the perfect solution! Laurie in El Dorado

Dear Cherie~
I want to thank you SO much for putting together a large dog play group. Samson and Gunther (English Mastiff puppies) are able to romp and play without worrying me that the other dog will be trampled. Plus, Thursday nights are my best night's sleep!!!
After having Samson in obedience classes since he was 4 months old, I can now start to see that all of the lessons are sticking. It's the best feeling in the world to know that all of our hard work is paying off! I'm looking forward to Gunther going through the same classes!
Hugs~
Vanessa, Samson and Gunther

We had moved from AZ to CA when Chance was about a
year old and he had not had much training and was
bossing me around like crazy. I had asked my vet in Santa
Cruz if she could recommend a trainer who was positive,
fair, consistent and fun to train with. She lead me to Our
Furry Friends and Cherie Maitland. Chance loved Cherie
at first sight and he also learned to have some patience
and respect for me totally from our working consistently
with Cherie.
Cherie was a very fair and patient trainer with Chance.
She even did housecalls for us. I could not get him to sit
and quit barking when someone came to the door. After
only one hour at the house, Cherie had Chance watching
her and he was quiet when asked to be.
Chance and I 100% recommend Cherie for a trainer. She
was all and more than we were looking for. Chance has
gone on to win Crufts Best in Show in England. He has
won Best of Breed 2005 & 2006 at the Westminster Kennel
Club in NYC. He also is a multiple Best in Show and a Best
in Specialty winning dog. He had Elite and Excellent Agility
titles and stock titles. He is a TDI (Therapy Dog
International) certified dog and is presently in training for
tracking and competitive obedience training.
Thank you to Cherie for giving Chance this great start in
life and the bounce forward in the performance career.

Angel is a one-year-old, rambunctious black lab, and has
been training with Cherie since he was three months old. Our
passion is travel and -- from the shores of Tahoe to the
beaches of San Diego and ranches in Nevada -- Angel's
newfound good behavior has allowed both of us to enjoy our
trips. We're looking forward to a lifetime of learning together.
From Puppy Kindergarten to Good Manners, Cherie's
classes have always been fun and productive. But most of
all, the Doggie Play Groups have helped Angel keep out of
trouble while socializing with other doggies. Cherie's been a
godsend!

My dog Charlie was overweight and bored. Coming to Cherie's dog play group was the best thing for both of us. Charlie has already lost 8 pounds and loves his play pals. I love and laugh every session and Charlie is a better behaved, better trained dog that sleeps peacefully every night now which means I get to sleep too! The sessions are fun and a great way to meet other dog lovers! Laurie
