Free training workshop
August 15, 2021

Well, first, thinkyou for the free video. I find it perfect, thought the I didn't realy learn someinthing, becaus I alredy new thos things, but think's because it was a good remender.
For me it's not exactely what I need. See I wil have soon a popy and it's for guardian of my goats and chikens. So I need a training regarding to that.

It ACTUALLY works!
August 15, 2021

I've been trying to get my dog to stop barking when we have visitors forever (my stolen dog, she was my husband's until I came along lol) however he didn't mind the barking and never tried to discourage it unfortunately and I thought I would never be able to teach this 13 year old small yippee little ball of love that what she was doing was wrong until I saw this free workshop! OMG she doesn't bark now instead she goes and lays down on the couch (her dog bed is our couch) it works EVERY TIME! I wish I could afford to pay for the full course just from the free tips I can tell it would be money well spent I unfortunately just don't have it right now with a 3 year old daughter but when I do you can count me in 100%

Best training techniques
August 14, 2021

I watched the video and was amazed at how easy and humane the training was.
I had two things that my dog needed better training on. One was pulling on her lease
While we were out walking and the other was running wildly to the door when someone
Knocked. It was amazing how much my dog improved after just one short training session.
Thank you,
Janice H,

Intorducing the training techniques
August 14, 2021

Informative video with explanation of the behavior patterns and how to coordinate training techniques. As an owner of a 7 month old, it was obvious some of the mistakes I had made and how to make corrections with an immediate impact on the ability to communicate effectively and with a greater respect with my dog. I can definitely see how this will assist in the developement of a healthy relationship with my dog vs just training him to follow commands. My long term hoped would be to utilize my puppy in a therapeutic setting, which I feel could be a possiblity utilizing these techniques.

Improved my dog's behaviour
August 14, 2021

I have been taking my dog to training for 9 months and I am pretty happy with her but had a couple of persistent issues of a) putting her paws up on people and b) marking other dogs and people on walks and being more interested in them. Watch and touch have helped with the second thing and the push into the dog example does work for the first thing if you get visitors to cooperate. Eventually I hope she will learn not to do it at all.

I am impressed at the quality of your free training workshop. I am a first time dog owner and even though I did some research I learned a lot from your workshop. It's not too long but not too short either. I really like the tips that are coming my way and I am already implementing some techniques on my dog with positive results. I am seriously considering buying the whole course.

Thank you for doing this!

I really enjoyed the free webinar/masterclass. It really does make a lot of sense and I am realizing how I've missed the boat in my communication techniques. Very insightful and helpful.

Awesome information
August 13, 2021

This experience has taught me so much about my GSD. There was some good tips like using hand gestures and learning about the negative and positive feedback to my pup. I love the information and looking forward for much more to come.

Our Aussie does have separation anxiety issues, braking, biting, and taking commands. She stresses hand commands over words 9 time out of 10. Used in conjunction with each other and one syllable word is absolute best and unique. Do not use commands interchangeably as it will just confuse. Aussie have 9 unique barks, once you realize this then issues begin to get smaller and guessing what is needed much clearer which Dr. Diaz has instructed.
