“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.

Fantastic! I wish your organization had all this written down because I'm not sure I got it all in my notes. (Sally then said she'd email them the written instructions.) Fabulous!

Reason I chose this business:

How to better control my Aussie puppy when he gets to rough with my Boyken Spaniel puppy.

Reason I chose this product:

Yes, the service is great.

Have been charged every month for services I cannot access online. I have repeatedly called to cancel and emailed. No response. Don't waste your money.

I had no idea whatsoever about a puppy and taking care of it but since I followed the instructions I'm becoming a better person than I was before with my puppy. Thank you very much.

I feel like this puppy is just too much for my wife and I at our ages and I'm not sure that what we were told tonight will make anything any better. We have listed the puppy for sale.

Reason I chose this business:

Biting, biting, biting and drawing blood - grabbing pant legs and tripping us - we are old and cannot deal with these behaviors

We are rather embarrassed to realize how badly we have spoiled this puppy, but glad to realize it and figure out some things to do to help him be more independent.

Reason I chose this business:

Constant barking when we leave him

I'm on disability, I ordered the course and also paid for monthly membership thing. Thought it was my phone, that it wouldn't bring up any of the sites I received. After $150 plus $37 elite members fee, still no access to anything. I tried to let them know I coudn't bring stuff up. Fraudulent charges on card, so card is temporally frozen. Then I get text monthly payment not going thru, called and they were supposed to return my call. GOT CANCLED, (Ok by me I guess after seeing the other reviews)won't get my money back, but no more charges either! I did receive the paper back book though, verry expensive paper back at that price! Any way hope others have better luck, me im an IDIOT, and in dept for something I believed could help. Good thing for other reviews, I will cancel frozen card and get new one so no more fraudulent charges can be made, it won't exist anymore. As to that a big THANKS, good luck to anyone else and as for the company, carma sucks.

The call was enlightening! I like the way Sally took commands he already knows and taught me to use the in different situations as well as teaching my dog a couple of new commands.

Reason I chose this business:

We talked about my dog charging out the front door to chase cars and Sally explained how to work with "sit-stay" to keep him from charging out the door. My grandkids will help me with this.

I talked to a trainer several months ago and the advice helped me solve my problem with my dog. Therefore, I cancelled my subscription. However, I keep getting calls from trainers. It is annoying.

The trainer was 15 minutes late in calling. I called her 4 times and she refused to answer. When she did call, she gave me this stuff about having other people to talk to.

Reason I chose this business:

Lots of good potty training advice! That's the most helpful.

Reason I chose this product:

Yes, I'd tell them to.

This all makes so much sense! I was hoping for a procedure I could do by myself and what Sally told me is very doable by myself and sounds like it will work great.

Reason I chose this business:

I needed a procedure to teach my dog to come when called.

Hopeful and reassured, and informed

I have been too busy to finish the first webinar. However my 1st phone call with Sally was great. I am waiting for training treats she suggested and will then slowly start.

Reason I chose this business:

Dogs do not do well on walks when passing other people or seeing a dog or another animal. Sally told me a way to actually teach "leave it" and insisted I teach each dog separately and work on it for a couple of weeks and then use it on a walk with each dog separately for a few days.

Re-assuring. I was wondering if there was something wrong with my puppy because she is peeing and pooping in the house so much and doesn't seem to get that we want her to do it outside.

Just reading the emails daily with tips and tricks that you may be doing wrong (and I WAS, not knowing) made complete sense when it comes to German Shepard's training and behaviors. Working on these already has helped ALOT!

Sent me an email on how to train my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.
Then tried to charge my account x3 in Cypress, HongKong and other foreign places for information that is readily available at any reputable socialization or obedience class. AVOID AT ALL COSTS... MY bank called me at 9pm about the attempted fraud!

I liked the way Sally evaluated what was going on with our dog. It made a lot of sense to me. She gave us some ideas to try and she agreed with Thomas about using an animal behaviorist.

Reason I chose this business:

Sally called what our dog was doing fear aggression as a result of past experience, probably abuse, and gave us ideas for making the dog feel safer and learning to trust us.

Sally is so knowledgeable. Thank you for all the good tips and pointers. If I can get the biting/nipping, pooping, and jumping under control, my puppy will be great.

Reason I chose this business:

I never knew little dogs like privacy for pooping, but it makes sense because Bella hides under the table to do it.
