Testimonials
“This looks like a very good training method. I will be contacting you for more info.”
– Christy Mashaney
“I’ve taught both of my dogs to go into crates. It is very nice to have them go in, and be comfortable that they sleep. All I say is load and they go in and wait for me to fasten the door. Its very helpful when someone comes in that is afraid of dogs. I also go to dog trails and use a soft crate, lite weight and easy to set up and fold down. I also store them in a car. These are very nice to have around.”
– Lavada Vanderheiden
“Thank you once again Roy for answering my email. I untethered Mitzi last night and this morning. I did not see or find anywhere that she had an accident in the house. I will continue to do the HB as you said. I’m excited for her to be completely House broken. I will keep you updated as to how things progress. I love this picture of her ❤️. Oh and I will leave a comment on your site too. Wanted to also let you know that I suggested to a friend of s friend to contact you about their dog. I don’t know her name otherwise I’d tell you. Thanks again! Shelley and Mitzi ❤️”
