In-Home Training –
Pepper was rescued from the streets of Puerto Rico and he came to live with us in June. Need I say he was a wild man ?! He jumped a four foot fence, a six foot fence and he chewed through a rope to which I had tied him. After I injured my knee from Pepper pulling me into a ditch, I gave up and said “uncle”. Enter Carmen …
Carmen’s first visit to our house gave me hope. She told me a lot of what I already knew, but wasn’t acting on – don’t let the dog on the couch if you don’t want him there, don’t let him jump on the counters, don’t let him jump all over you!!!!
Carmen’s patient, consistent instruction allowed me to see that Pepper could be trained. Carmen was supportive and encouraging. It was extremely helpful to have her in our home, to have her observe firsthand Pepper’s needs, and mine as well. I would recommend this in home training to anyone who is feeling overwhelmed by an unruly dog. And in particular, I think you will find Carmen’s graceful manner and knowledge of dogs comforting.
