    I hope you don’t mind, but I want to share this with my fellow teachers who all too often try to make the student into something they are not. Such a strong lesson we all need to learn.

    amazing, makes me realize how being so determined to get what you put into something isn’t always what they want or need. But having the ability to except and work it out is much more powerful than the begining of their training.

    I am thoroughly convinced that God specifically designed dogs to be “man’s best friend!”

    Dogs are special animals. What would we do without them?!

    I think most dog owners (and trainers) need a little reminding that sometimes pushing a dog into something they don’t like or they are just not that good at, isn’t best. Sometimes if you focus on what they are good at, you will get much better results. This video is a touching story to illustrate just that.
