“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.

This was wonderful - very re-assuring and encouraging.

Reason I chose this business:

Rescuing a female from a puppy mill is an act of love and patience! Sally really encouraged me with how much progress she thinks we have made in such a short time and gave me tips for the next steps.

Very good ideas of where to start with puppy training and it all makes so much sense.

Reason I chose this business:

I wanted to teach my puppy to come, but Sally suggested using "see me" and practicing several times a day. She also felt that "leave it" will be beneficial to teach right away.

I'm so glad to know it isn't me or my training methods that are wrong but my puppy is too young to be able to potty train. What a relief!

Emily was wonderful—friendly and full of suggestions—and I was sorry the call had to end so quickly; 15 minutes goes by fast!

Reason I chose this business:

Types of reward treats, and timing of giving them. Also, the Signal Training.

Reason I chose this product:

That it would be helpful to them.

I must add, however, that the $67/month cost disallows my continuing my membership beyond the 30-day trial period. I am very sorry about that.

Very clear on what to expect as we bring home our puppy. Sent me some great resources along with what I am learning in the training course..

Reason I chose this business:

Follow her guideline on sleep and potty training

Reason I chose this product:

You should do it. The information in invaluable, but for me to be able to have access to speak with someone is good. I am a very consistent in my own life, maybe a little to much, so it was great to have a guide.

I too was lured in by the information that this course had all the inside scoop on my Siberian Huskies (AKA "Sibies")! So glad and lucky that I google'd the "company" to get to the reviews. I was tipped off just as I was about to put in my credit card information... I looked for the VeriSign logo, which I did not see. It IS awful the way scammers go to such great lengths to get your money.
IS THERE NO WAY TO SOMEHOW HACK THEIR SITE TO PUT IN A "SCAMMER ALERT'? I am not tech-savvy, but someone who is should try to do this! Beat them at their own game!

My dog goes about a block and a half and stops and turns around and heads home quickly.

Quite helpful. I thought I was dealing with a barker, but Sally helped me see how bossy she is and that what I'm dealing with is Small Dog Syndrome and a battle of who is alpha.

Reason I chose this business:

I learned lots of little things I can change to become alpha over my little dog instead of her bossing all of us around!

I don't think I can crate this dog and I have no place to close her where she won't be unhappy with not being with the other dogs and I don't want to keep her on a leash with me.

Reason I chose this business:

Sally says I didn't potty train her to go directly out the potty door and pee or poop before playing, but I don't see how I could do that - even though Sally explained it to me several times.

Reason I chose this product:

I am not impressed.

I am trying to potty train our husky, is it that important that he stays in him crate at night or when we arent working with him I'm having trouble getting him to recognize the difference between the house and outdoors, since he is a husky he should be mostly a outside dog, I've noticed if I leave him out and dknt take potty first he will potty in the house even though he stays outside most the day, so I have to walk him out in the yard to potty before I bring him in, and most the time he wont potty on walks he waits until we get back home

To anyone who is thinking of purchasing mytrainingpet please don't.

I paid a one off 37usd amount and received absolutely nothing except email after email asking you sign up for the training course. Which I already had and paid for.

I had a one off response to one of my many emails to the company saying they would get back to me which they never have... signed by Nancy Richard's.

Using their website... which is terrible... I raised a 'ticket' asking for the dachshund training manual to be sent to me with a screen shot of my bank account showing the payment being taken.

I received no reply to this.

Similarly to another person on this review site I entered the information about 8 times before the Catcha robot check worked. It doesn't work as it should. It really is a terrible website.

I still live in hope the manual will come as I'm desperate to train my puppy and I've paid for it.

However I think this trainmypet website is a scam and I don't advise anyone to use it.

Save your money and time.

Emily was very easy to talk to and offered some excellent resources

Reason I chose this business:

The relationship between the dogs lack of interest in Toys and the fact that the prey drive is bred out of them. That is a huge safety information I hadn't thought of.

Reason I chose this product:

It's definitely worth the time and money.

I like having a way to work with my dog to curb these bad/dangerous behaviors and found Sally had some practical ideas

Reason I chose this business:

Keeping her from jumping on people since she is 50-60 pounds and will eventually be about 90 pounds
