“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.

Our dog was biting my husband constantly. Sally was very helpful. We are using her tips, and she is slowing getting better.

Reason I chose this business:

Biting - teaching "no bite" and using a time out and training her to chew alone or to go to her bed

This was so helpful. We are tired of training but know we have to get certain commands working well with our puppy.

Helped us understand our puppy and how to interact with her. Very positive experience.

Reason I chose this business:

Using kibble and high value treats to work on 'leave it'. For a fetch game it's ok to ignore and walk away when they don't drop it, but to use the throw as a reward when they do.

Reason I chose this product:

Yes, awesome!

This was really helpful. Unfortunately, I was driving, but Sally said she would send an email with the instructions we discussed.

Reason I chose this business:

One of my 12 dogs attacks one of the others. Sally taught me to teach him "leave it."

My experience has been incredible. The whole house is more calm, all are eating sleeping, and using the rest room better.

Very good ideas. This dog is a real challenge so I appreciate all the ideas Thomas and Sally have given me.

Reason I chose this business:

Getting the dog's mental stimulation so he's less overexcited was the biggest thing.

Reason I chose this product:

Sure, it's been useful.

One of the most enjoyable conversations we've ever had! Sally was delightful! She had great ideas for our highly unusual situations.

Reason I chose this business:

Getting two dogs to pull a sled together without the younger one jumping on the older one. Also the older dog who is afraid of so many things.

I feel encouraged if Sally had a bad day with her puppy. She thinks mine is making good progress and I just need to hang in and be consistent.

Reason I chose this business:

Potty training took a huge step backwards with the new roof being put on and my dog not being able to go out.

I feel much better, but my husband is thoroughly disgusted to think we have to watch the dog every minute

Reason I chose this business:

One of our two male dogs is marking so Sally said we have to put him on a leash when he is out of the sun room and one of us has to be on the other end of the leash
