My anxiety prevented me from going to in person classes. This course allowed me to bond with new rescue pup, give her the boost in her own self confidence and show me where her skills and bond had led us in just the short few weeks she had been with us.

I dreaded taking my dog out as he was always trying to jump on other people and dogs, barking, etc. This course showed me how to change all that! He’s such a good dog now!

The course was a different way of looking at how to train your dog. I appreciated the husbandry unit and mat training especially. The basics are all there. The ‘target’ command is brilliant. If my puppy is being stubborn it always brings him back to earth. If my puppy turns out anywhere as great as Barley I will be very happy.
