Working a little all ready but starting to train more often
I have learned a lot from your workshop. Many of your suggestions make total sense, but one does not think of them.
The skills are clear and concise.
A great experience
I have been getting the free email training tips and they have honestly changed my entire training ways. They give me so much insight in the dog mind.
Fantastic instructions on how to train your dog. Due to having a cross-breed pup that's rather boisterous, I am working with the instructor on how to train correctly. Different. But knock until you've tried it
Just the free video showing how to handle barking and pulling on the leash made a BIG difference in our pup!
I have watched the free workshop and love the concept of giving my dog a job. He loves to be busy.
Such simple tips but I never thought of them, its like most things... simple when you know!
So far they have been so helpful, being that it's my first time actually trying to professionally train my pets. I understand everything given and it's broken down clearly.
My dog and I learned together! We loved it! The watch and touch command we're really easy amazingly helpful!
Certain things like using body language and 4 ways to train a dog were eye opener to me. I always thought that we need to give a positive enforcement only. But sometimes it doesn't work. I will remember that.
The free training I received appears to be working! I have been showing her rather than shouting at her and it works wonders. I have 3 dogs, the other two are not as undisciplined as her so a bit of a challenge to try only show one dog and ignore the other two.
I would highly recommend this site for someone beginning their journey in dog training, or someone keen to learn a new perspective on training methods that are commonly used. Don't we all want to own a dog like a service dog!
I have really enjoyed the information in training my puppies. I learned so much and look forward to learning more to help with the training.
I have not taken the course, but the videos on their website depicting dogs being trained to *not bark when someone arrives at the door, *not jump up on people, *not pull, and *not bark at dogs passing by, looked believable and very promising.
The phone number they provided was a Google voice number which I thought was strange for a business.
The most important take away for me was to give my precious dog a job to do. In other words - it helps her and calms her to know what her work is (what I expect of her) especially in a transition or new situation.
I would love to train my dog as good as a service dog! I really want to know more and will enrol in the Total Transformation Masterclass as soon as I can
I thought I had a good sense of the training of dogs, but I was wrong. I have a barker, and even with a few lessons he's getting better.
