Shirley & Robbie, Carlisle

I have been really pleased with the format and structure of the course. I felt as if I was listened to and therefore my dog was being treated as an individual. He has made good progress and I feel that I now know where I am going and how to get there! The background psychology etc made perfect sense and it has helped me to understand my dog and his needs. I like the patient and kind but firm approach and my dog is responding to it well. The best part of the course is that it is bringing me closer to my dog. He is a rescue dog – I am his third owner in a year and he has certainly been indulged before he came to me. As a consequence I have felt unable to love him as I should because of some of his acquired behavioural bad habits. Now we are enjoying each others company and able to go for long walks without me having my arms stretched!! Thanks to Lisa for her patience and understanding.
