Digger
“My friend is a dog trainer and she has brought this guy a long way in his training. When she first took him in as a Foster dog (he was so frightened of everything / maybe he was abused or something ) you couldn’t even look at him without him cowering and running away. Now he comes up for hugs, scratches and kisses.” Pamela Nations-Weissman, New Port Richey, FL (referring to our dog, Digger)
“I had the pleasure of working with Marilyn in the very beginning of my training career. When I watched her interact with clients, I saw them respond to her zen-like demeanor. It was a pleasure to watch her train clients to work with reactive dogs with a loose leash, and I was impressed with her ability to quietly and confidently lead by example. I took a page from her book that day, and it has stayed with me ever since!” Christina Horne, Franchise Owner at The DogSmith, Pensacola, FL
“It has been interesting that Lexie has hardly been pawing since your visit and when she does, she quickly stops. Five years of trying to rectify it on my own to no avail and 60 minutes with you and a solution. Amazing!” Lorraine (client), Lexie is an imported African street dog
“You are easy to understand and follow. I’ve already given your name to several people.” Bill (client), 2 miniature Schnauzers
“Oh, she brings dogs in here all the time and they’re all well-mannered.” Debbie Brennan, front desk clerk in a local small business. Debbie didn’t know that most of the dogs I brought in were fosters
“Wow! An unknown dog, a microphone, the distractions of lots of people and pets, the heat… and still you got the dog to listen!!! If you can do that with all those obstacles – you must be good.” Sharon McReynolds, Program Manager, Red, WOOF and Blue
“Marilyn provides a great pet behavior instruction service through her business Korrect Kritters. Her methods are sound, and kindly reinforce the dog behaviors that are desired. She is really teaching the owner about modifying THEIR behavior, such as not reacting to bad dog behavior, getting the pet’s attention, and rewarding the dog after correct actions. Marilyn really cares about animals and their welfare on every level. She is well known and respected in the community, and is responsible for saving the lives of so many pets through awareness, postings about adoptable dogs, and charity. Marilyn is always on duty and knows how to read a dog’s behavior. Her work is vital in keeping dogs that need shaping out of shelters and in loving homes. Sometimes, she can only help you to know your dog’s limitations. For example our small dog becomes upset if she gets within four feet of a larger dog. Not every problem can be solved, but Marilyn can help to evaluate and improve the situation to keep your pet and others safe. Highly recommend Marilyn’s work, business collaboration, and friendship.” Jason Longo hired Marilyn as a Pet Trainer in 2009
“I have liked and respected Marilyn since I first met her at the Trinity Business Association. She is very professional and takes her job seriously. I have asked Marilyn to join me in other networking groups and value her opinion and the feedback she gives. I would highly recommend Marilyn to anyone needing pet training.” Cindy Petika , President , Anything Office
“Marilyn contributes positive and informative posts to many of the trainer lists to which we both belong. Her responses to requests for solutions to problems show her to be kind, thoughtful, and caring as well as competent and experienced. She is definitely on my list of recommended trainers!” Jan Casey , Owner, Smiles and Wags Pet Services, worked with Marilyn

“I will continue to have clients call, and if a class is available, great, if not they will have to wait. You are worth the wait!” Dr. Geoffrey Adams, Pasco Animal Hospital, New Port Richey, FL
“Marilyn Wolf with Korrect Kritters gave an awesome presentation showing parallels in dog and human frustration over not receiving clear directions.” Cindy Petika, President, Trinity Business Association in Trinity Neighborhood News,
(George Psetas was my “subject.”)
“I have 3 dogs that I thought were BAD BAD dogs. I heard about her through my vet, Dr. Adams at Pasco Animal Hospital. Marilyn gave me in-home private lessons with me and my family. With the very FIRST VISIT…I cannot stress to you how completely changed my dogs and atmosphere had gone to calmness from sheer chaos. 2 visits later and my dogs know how to behave without prong collars, pinch collars, hearing the word NO, punishment, or scolding. Somehow through kindness, soft, gentle handling and common sense, she also trained me to train my dogs. You would think that your dogs were her own beloved pets. Marilyn is an incredible trainer.” Connie (client), English mastiff, boxer, spaniel mix
“It was really good. Some people really don’t get it, the whole more systematic and accountable approach but you do. I can see your experience means you’ll be able to implement what works best for you too. Awesome.” James O’Heare, Companion Animal Sciences Institute, “Functional Assessment”
“I don’t even have dogs and I saw a difference in him.” Joanne Cicora, Mary Kay Consultant & Sales Director,at Trinity Business Association presentation with Kathy Bram’s dog, Monroe.
In the beginning Monroe is avoiding eye contact and staying very close to Kathy.As I work with him a little, he begins to lift his head off Kathy's shoulder.After working with him for about 5 minutes, Monroe is comfortable enough to lift his head and look at me.
“I came to Marilyn Wolf because my two-year-old maltipoo, Riley, was barky & wouldn’t mind. She sat down on the floor, evaluated him & us, then worked with us a while. Her advice was focused and right on target. Implementing her positive reinforcement techniques has made a big difference in Riley’s behavior. If you’ve got a particular challenge with your dog or just want general training advice, I highly recommend Marilyn.” Carol Cassara (client)
I really appreciate your help and the session last night opened my eyes up to a whole new way of training! I’m excited to see the changes in our dogs and how well they will be behaved! And BOTH dogs did “watch me” this morning very well! Kate and Alex Leon (clients), large, male German Shepherd and female Brittany Spaniel
Marilyn, Lily and I thank you for the wonderful training class. I learned a lot and feel that Lily made great progress. Carolyn (client), Lily is a small Yorkie mix
