Linda Jovic,

owner of Dogs by Linda, has been a

devoted animal lover her entire life. Through years of education, experience


and working with many breeds of dogs, Linda has found gentle and force-free

ways to deter unwanted behavior, using proven training protocols based on the

most recent scientific research in dog behavior. These methods yield quick

learning without the negative effects sometimes caused by more outdated

methods. Linda also volunteers her time training rescue dogs. Go to wwww.dogsbylinda.com for more information.
