“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.

Excellent! It is so nice to talk to a trainer about our dog.

Reason I chose this business:

Jumping on us, not listening, laying where we fall over him, bugging the other dog

Sally was helpful, but she re-iterated how smart the breed is and how we would have to work hard to keep ahead of our dog.

Reason I chose this business:

Leave it sounds like a command that will be very useful in our situation.

I was so encouraged to talk with Sally and find out I am doing the right things and it will just take lots of time.

Reason I chose this business:

How to work with my two rescue dogs to get them to trust me and start learning to obey. I'd love to be able to pet them and cuddle with them, but that may be a few months yet.

We just got our dog 2 weeks ago and were overwhelmed with all the puppy behavior because we thought he was a 2-year-old adult dog.

Reason I chose this business:

Sally gave us solutions for all our problems and then had a couple more ideas for us!

Relieved! Our vet had our puppy snap at him and immediately wanted us to have someone train her not to be aggressive - for $3200! Insane!

Reason I chose this business:

We are so happy that Sally was able to help us understand our puppy's behavior.

It is helpful to know that she is not alone on not wanting to go any farther. I hope you are right about its being a developmental thing with her.

This has been so very helpful. We were at our wit's end with this very large dog. I didn't want anyone to get hurt.

Reason I chose this business:

We talked about how to train our dog to "leave it" and all the situations where we can use that command. I also learned how to teach him to "heel" and I can't wait to start training. We'll also work on socializing him better.

Reason I chose this product:

I sure would say "do it!" The trainer even answered my 7-year-old's questions!

So glad we just just found this site and all the horrifying reviews on the Nancy Richards dog training course for our dachshund. We were just about to sign up when we decided to take a look on Google to see if there were any reviews... and here we are!
So glad to find out, it was/is a SCAM before we paid any money.
Thank you to all you poor folk (who have already been caught out by this so called dog training site) for taking the trouble to warn others that is is a SCAM?
You have saved us the same fate you have sadly become involved in.
I have to say after receiving so many convincing daily emails from dear Nancy Richards I actually believed it was all for real, I was so convinced I was ready to join up.
The dog website is all very believable with the cartoons to take your interest and the voice over offering and promising such amazing results, I was well taken in...
Today, I showed my husband all the helpful and personal emails from Nancy I had been receiving and

Said, "isn't she helpful, this sounds really good don't you think", but my hubby was not quite so convinced by it and when all the hard selling started with offers of discounts, free books, elite membership and the money back guarantee. " he said "let's check it out and try and find some reviews on it before we go any further... And HEY HO...
Thank goodness for this review site. Now we know, yes it is all TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!
I hope they are dealt with if they ever catch people behind the scam.
Shame on those behind the site!
I just hope they get caught and dealt with... why are people just so wicked to others?
Please don't be fooled, just RUN in the opposite direction to dear Nancy.

Tip for consumers:
STAY AWAY FROM IT!
