“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.

I have been reading these emails and doing the best I can to follow all the steps, AND IT HAS WORKED. he has became a better dog within a week of me using these methods. He hasn't been jumping as much, hasn't been going to the bathroom in the house as much, and overall listens to commands better. So thank you very much.

I paid for the training course but when I did not pay for the elite dog club after 30 days Now I can no longer see the training course.
ALSO my credit card suddenly had fraudulent charges and I had to cancel it-
This company is questionable at best.

I feel so much better. I was doing some things right but not consistently or enough. I also appreciate Sally's different commands for having the dog walk with her.

Reason I chose this business:

How to work on better leash walking.

I recently adopted a 5yo (they think) pomeranian mix dog from our local SPCA. I have had a number of dogs over the years and this was my first pom so I wanted to learn more about their traits and breed characteristics. The information I found here was helpful especially how to handle jumping upnbut the training manual was too expensive for me right now so had originally assigned 3stars but I added a star for the free grooming manual.

I wasn't expecting a call until Monday, but I had time to talk tonight and had just had a bad experience with my dog, so I was glad to tell Sally about it and get her advice on that situation and a couple other things. I hope I also get a call on Monday to discuss the rest of my questions.

Reason I chose this business:

Potty training and coming when called

What Sally told me to do sounds fairly easy and will definitely save my furniture and carpets as well as it should really help in potty training Zoey.

Reason I chose this business:

Zoey was 15 months when I got her and she refuses to potty train. I am at my wit's end.

Sally has great ideas and is fun to talk with. She suggested that since Tina is so bright, it's time perhaps to teach her some tricks. Hello Circus! Here we come!

Reason I chose this business:

Chewing and barking

I feel a lot better after talking to Sally

I feel a lot better after talking to Sally. She is efficient and has wonderful ideas.

Reason I chose this business:

Throwing up in the car, totally crazy on the leash, chews up everything! Sally taught me how to teach her "leave it" and "heel and sit" and told me about Thunder Wunder calming treats with melatonin.

I found the information provided of the Pug breed to be very helpful + informative to understanding the Pugs breeds character and the tips for training very helpful and the grooming manual a great wealth of information which I can refer to when needed thanks for all the help and look forward to any more up dates of this extraordinary breed.

Sally gave me several things to work on with my puppy, but they all sound very do-able and I can easily see how they will change his behavior for the better.

Reason I chose this business:

I need to quit giving treats all the time and use them as special rewards for good behavior instead of bribes.

Our last lab was so easy to potty train that I don't really believe what you are saying about the age and sphincter development with Labs. I think there is something more going on.

Reason I chose this product:

Not really. It wasn't helpful to me.

I have hope that my two dogs will become friends. Sally explained how to work with them so both feel loved and the older one does not feel like we are replacing him.

Reason I chose this business:

Introducing a new puppy to a 10-year-old dog who doesn't think he wants another dog in the house.

I've tried to train my dog with other programs and even stuff on YouTube but this one by far is the best. The behavioral changes already are so much better! Highly recommend it.

I still have questions about how I will know my dog needs to potty, but it helped when Sally told me that adult dogs only need to go out 3-5 times a day.

Reason I chose this business:

Getting my dog to give a signal to go out and lengthening the amount of time my dog stays.

YOu've given me new energy to go at this. I've trained labs before but am older this time and had forgotten some of the things I need to be doing with him.

Reason I chose this business:

How to get my dog to be quiet while I cook his food and how to keep him from jumping on the counter.

Reason I chose this product:

If you want to actually talk to someone and ask your real questions right now, this is the place.

I am very encouraged! Sally thinks I have made a lot of progress since we talked last week. Her Bubble Training theory has really helped me to understand what to do.

Reason I chose this business:

My dog barks at a lot of things and until last week after I talked to Sally, I couldn't get him to stop or re-focus, but now I am able to get his attention and to sometimes get him to stop - or if I am quick, I can keep him from starting to bark.

I found the call very helpful and the things I learned...

I found the call very helpful and the things I learned go along with the way my daughter and her husband are teaching their new puppy, so we should all be able to be consistent.

Reason I chose this business:

We talked about cutting down on the barking using "watch me" and "leave it" and "quiet" and later "no bark."

I found this site while searching how to clean pet urine from Laminate floor. Sounded great. I signed up for the download on how to train my Boxer. Which was informative and my user name and password did work. I even purchase a book on Boxer training that was advertised as a hardback book, what I received was a small spiral notebook, with so many grammatical errors I became very concerned. I tried the "Elite" website to ask a vet question and never received a reply. I have cancelled by subscription of $37 and will be contacting my bank asap. DON'T FALL FOR THIS. AFTER READING REPORTS FROM RIP OFF AND THIS HOW CAN THIS WEBSITE STILL BE IN BUSINESS. HELP US POOR ANIMAL LOVERS FROM THESE SCAMMERS

I feel like I am doing the right things for potty training and had not realized how confused my dog probably is since I'm the third one to "potty train" in another way in the last 3-4 months.

It helps to talk to a professional and realize our dog's anxiety is really not too bad for an 11-year-old dog, but Sally also gave us good ideas to try.

Reason I chose this business:

Learned how to teach our dog "quiet" for the barking.

DO NOT BE TAKEN IN BY THIS SITE. THEY ARE FRAUDULENT! Am so pleased I read reviews before signing up. I've been caught by a different company selling cosmetics who use the same tactics. My bank balance suffered and so did my stress levels. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO TOOK THE TIME TO LEAVE A REVIEW.
