If I could give 10 bones, I would

So we obtained a Christmas puppy and she soon grew up to be a nuisance. She would steal everything off the counter, dig into every trash can, play bite when we held her, and didn’t travel in cars well. She would literally jump up on a bar-height table and clear the steak dinner off it. Walking her was a nightmare. We would have to wear heavy gloves while she constantly pulled on the leash. She would attempt to chase every rabbit, squirrel, dog, cat, and jogger in sight. It got to the point where if we wanted to relax, we had to put her in the crate. This was not what we envisioned with a dog, but it was reality. We tried dog training books and methods only to fail.

Then we heard about James at Lone Star Dog Trainer. I was a little skeptical about the cost and the 1-month investment, but we decided to give it a try. We drove to drop her off, and James gave us a tour of his state-of-the-art indoor/outdoor facility. We missed our dog dearly, but James was good about sending videos and texts to communicate progress. Then the day came when James brought the dog home. James prepared our house, then gave us detailed lessons on training and working with the dog. We were also given supplemental instructions and videos so we would jot forget.

Now the best part. All of the problems mentioned in the first paragraph…ALL GONE!!! When we walked our dog, the neighbors would mentioned they didn’t recognize our dog with her new behavior. No more counter surfing, walks are a pleasure, we can put our trash cans on the floor again, we can take our dog around town, no more pulling flowers in the yard, and so much more! We now have full enjoyment of our dog and then some. James is also readily available to answer questions as we worked on reinforcing the training with our dog.

So in essence, the training and time was worth every penny. I would give James 10 stars if I could. Don’t go through life with your dog as a source of frustration. Give Lone Star Dog Trainer a month and live the life you envisioned with your canine companion.
