Hey Lisa,
Thought I’d take a minute to share some thoughts:
As you know we’ve been coming to you guys for training and guidance with our pups for at least a decade now (i think). We seem to always have questions and pups that continue to present new challenges.
I feel like i am getting to know each of your trainers - like i would my kids teachers - LOl!!! They are ALL always willing to help, and seem to have a genuine love for the dogs that they train. (I don’t even really need to hand off the leashes at drop-off as the pups are so eager to get to school they just want to run in as soon as they see the trainer coming to open the door). You’ve got some great employees and I am so happy to have them teach us and the dogs.
This am i took the pups for a walk on my own. I wanted them to burn off some morning energy before it got too hot. I’ve not walked them together for far by myself before - as it just seemed like a disaster waiting to happen.
Well.... we walked for almost 2 miles and neither of them earned even one correction. We were on a “let’s go” and strolled at a relaxing pace. We stopped to “sit-wait” before crossing streets, and did some “down-wait” under some shady trees to watch the various construction sites come to life in our sub. The heat surely helped them stay low key - but they walked beautifully. They listened, the explored (within their 6’ leash) and even watched some birds run across their path, and some neighborhood dogs bark at them from their front “invisible fenced” yards. We walked a familiar route with familiar sites, but none-the-less it was a relaxing and enjoyable walk for all. I am confident that would not have been possible without your training.
We regularly get compliments on the dogs behavior, and temperament- which is visible because we are able to have them in public without losing control of them.
So, in a nutshell, just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate your business and all your fabulous employees.
Samantha
