“The tips you gave me worked like a charm”

Margaret T.
9/26/19

The tips you gave me worked like a charm. Chase is actually a Labradoodle. 4 months, extremely intelligent, born and raised in a barn until I got him. He only had one accident in the house and was completely housebroken in 2 days. His buddy is a Maltese he loves to hump, and Charlie snaps at him every time and growls. I was told it's a status thing on who's dominant. Your tips worked great. Thank you so very much.

“Your approaches have helped me with King already.”

Michelle N.
7/11/19

I would first like to thank you for the emails. I greatly appreciate them! Your approaches have helped me with King already. When he's jumping and I simply ignore his behavior, as you said, he stops within a very short amount of time. Also, praising him with just simply saying good has worked great. I'm not sure if that has worked or made a difference for anyone else but it truly did for me. Thank you for free tips and advice. I'd not be fortunate enough to have something like this otherwise.

It has been a challenge with a 6 month puppy who has the attention span of a flea. We are working with him for 10 minutes at a time. So far so good. Your tips have been excellent.

So far all I've done is print out the subjects that I was interested in but I would like to download the course and put it in my computer for later when she gets older and in case I ever get another dog it was very informative what I had read I learned not to give my dog chocolate she loves it but I guess I'll have to stop thank you so much for supplying a training course like this in depth l I checked out training classes and they were very expensive and wasn't as much of the depth as this course is

I get frustrated and can't maneuver the website. I can't figure out how to find videos I want or how to read other people's questions and see the answers.

Reason I chose this business:

His age can impact behavior and it's time to bring back the crate training.

I felt excited to have the correct help and direction with my precious little Flint.

Reason I chose this business:

Helping with the call or come command and the crate training with tiny bits of dry food reward. That is amazing and also has worked so far this morning on Flints little walk.

Reason I chose this product:

Its worth the money and time.

It was reassuring to talk to someone and realize I am expecting too much too soon. She also gave me pointers on how to train "stay" and how to get him to stop pulling on the leash.

Reason I chose this business:

We talked about stay, come, and walking on a leash.

Getting to talk to a trainer who understands my dog's breed is a real plus for this website! I found the trainer to be very knowledgeable and helpful.

Reason I chose this business:

My newly adopted dog's barking. We discussed how she would use that barking in herding and how she is perhaps trying to get attention by barking. Then Sally explained how to teach her "quiet."

Reason I chose this product:

Yes, I think this is great.

Thank you so, so much. I am excited to try the new things I learned tonight and to share them with my husband and daughter so we can all work with Daisy on "heel" and "leave it."

Reason I chose this business:

Our Lab is lunging at other dogs on walks. I learned how to teach her to "heel" and "leave it" so she behaves better on walks.

This was so helpful! I can't believe how we have approached things "all wrong" with our beagle. (We gave away the coonhound that this call was originally for.)

Reason I chose this business:

Sally helped me realize how I am the only one our Beagle really obeys and how he is alpha over everyone else. Her 4-H background gave me some insights into how the girls and my wife can change their interactions with him and help him learn to obey and respect them as alpha. We definitely have our work cut out for us, but Sally gave us good, easy-to-teach and use ideas and specific instructions.

Reason I chose this product:

This was tremendously helpful and the instructions were simple but to the point and will change our interactions with our dog.

Nice to talk it through with someone who knows what they are doing. I was doing things halfway instead of all the way. I wasn't demonstrating the commands.

Reason I chose this business:

I learned that commands need to be demonstrated with the dog when you are teaching them like closing the dog's mouth for "no lick" or pulling the dog to the floor for "floor."

We have issues with our younger male Weimaraner and both felt that Sally was able to give us some things to try that sounded fairly easy to implement.

Reason I chose this business:

We talked a lot about both of our males jumping on us when excited and the younger one biting and nipping when excited. We learned how to teach "floor" and "no bite" and that it is okay to use a time out.

I am encouraged after talking with Sally about training my male Poodle. She also promised to help me with listing my puppies for sale and to give me ideas for training a service dog.

Reason I chose this business:

We talked about my rescue Poodle's fears, lack of potty training, and overall lack of attention and obedience. Sally outlined a training program that sounds very doable.
