Overview of training
July 5, 2021

It showed some of things but it didnt address all the issues and there was no content in there for the smaller dogs who are over reactive in a good way

Hi Carole - thanks for your review. As we mentioned in our private message to you, our training techniques work for all dog breeds, including smaller dogs. Also, we cover leash reactivity in the 10th week of our masterclass. Hope that helps!:-)

In walking our 7 month old Doberman puppy, we tried the u-turn to stop the pulling. It worked!

I wish I had the $$ to take this course. I learned a lot just from the preview. I've had dogs for 35 years, read a lot of dog training books, but there were new things I didn't know, plus the videos of how the training worked were amazing. We're getting a new puppy in two weeks, and I want him to be even better trained than our other dogs. I wish I'd had your help with our precious dog who just went to Doggie Heaven 3 weeks ago. He barked at everything. I could make him sit and "Be a nice, quiet dog", but that gets old, every time you run the food processor, open a certain drawer, etc. He learned to obey me, but not to the extent he could have, if I'd had this special training. I'd love to take this, if only I had the money...

Great training skills
June 3, 2021

Although I would like to subscribe to your class my budget is beyond reach. I have thoroughly enjoyed the free training program and I felt you have a good thing coming with more outreach programs maybe a little less costly. Thks again for the free book if I am going to get it after this review.

I found the video very good. I trained working sheep dogs for fifty years and would have loved to have this information, it would have helped a lot. Also, all dogs wore collars and were tied up when not working, if they weren't they would wander and some even killed the sheep in their spare time. But I have found with my little jack russell the new type of harness is so less stressful for her that I am amazed.

Helping People and Pets
June 3, 2021

Dear Dr Alexa,

Thank you so much for your tips and free training. I live in South Africa and to get products and services from the US is very costly for us and with both us and our pets going through lock down we have both (pets and owners) forgotten some of the basics when it comes to walking and socialising our pets.

Using body language is something we do but not in a mindful way so that is a big help and how to change behaviour in a calm way is better for the pet and the (mom) owner.

Thank you so much
Susan

Masterclass

The video helped me realize how unknowingly I was giving our dog the wrong rewards for good behavior! It reminded me of horse training! Give your horse or dog the way to the right behavior and they learn to choose it! Thank you!

Mary Jane has been doing a lot better at not barking at people when they come through the door and a lot more. It's good to know that I'm able to see tips and ways I can do better to help my dog.

A lot of filler, but the meat was worth it! I actually took notes and put the things I learned into practice immediately. The results have been remarkable! I wish I could afford the whole course!

Free class
May 31, 2021

I found the info very informative and have used some of the items I learned. I am really surprised that these things are working in training my dog to behave better. With not knowing my husband and I had already done parts of the training. It is nice to know that the non verbal training we had already done, due to my husbands illness, is part of the training in this free class. It is so unbelievable that my dog has already started to look at me for direction and barking at people and animals has almost stopped.
