Rebecca A. & “Arlo”
Dayton, OH
Arlo’s Success Story —
This program was a game changer. It has helped Arlo's confidence all around. Yes, I can leave him with more ease than I could before, but it has given him more confidence in everything he does. He is more curious and he enjoys just hanging out in the other room. It's cool to see because he was a stage 5 clinger before we started this work.
I knew we would eventually be moving to a bigger city and that means moving from a house to an apartment with neighbors and I wanted to ensure he would be a good neighbor/ I wouldn't have to pay for daycare every day for the rest of my life.
We have gotten SO much closer. I understand him and his needs better. I feel like we are more in tune and there is a greater trust in other circumstances too. I also feel more comfortable with him interacting with other dogs because I understand dog body language better and don't hover as much as I used to. I think he loves it because he has a notable autonomous streak in him and this allows him to honor that.
He's WAY more resilient and learns way faster than I had ever given him credit for. And that I need to chill as much as he does.
I am so happy I made the decision to do this program for Arlo and I. We are closer than ever, I understand his needs, he's easier to deal with, and after 4 years together have hit a stride I didn't know was possible. If you are on the fence, but you have time over the next months to really dedicate yourself to this and your dog's progress, DO IT! It will pay dividends.
