I knew that Buck needed to see me as the ‘alpha mom’, so I went back to the drawing board on the internet in search of yet another program. Buck gets daily off-leash walks at Fiesta Island (and other places) and I was concerned about his inability to ‘come’ when called, jumping on visitors when they walked through the door, and aggressive behaviors with toys and treats. Lucky for me, I stumbled onto the ‘Sit Means Sit’ website, and was enthused about the training at the off-leash dog parks.

After only two lessons with Rob, (very personable and great with dogs), 10-15 min. of daily reinforcement, Buck is a new dog. It is such a relief to be able to walk off leash and have him ‘come’ at the end of the walk. Even in a highly stimulated environment (next to a golf course and chasing squirrels), he came right to us. Now I don’t even need the training collar, I just call, ‘come’ at the end of our walk, and he walks right to me…….amazing! In the past, I’d actually drive along the roadside until he decided when he’d get in the car!

I highly recommend Rob and Erin Jewell and the ‘Sit Means Sit’ dog training program. A dynamic team with a first-class program. Excellent for those with plenty of time on their hands, or the rest of us who work for a living! “Two Paws Up!”

Sincerely,

Kim W. and Buck

Just wanted to let you know how happy I am about the training you are doing with Kharma.

She is like a different dog! I took her to Kahoots pet store yesterday and all the staff there have seen a huge difference in her. The best part was having her within 5 feet of another dog and she didn’t even care.

Bring some of your business cards for me to take there and they will put you in their book of referrals. Also, feel free to use me as a referral for future clients.

Thanks so much!
Faith
