REVIEWS

Student feedback

I'm loving all of this! I knew of you Edward and Janet Roarke before this but none of the others. It's a mass of fantastic information! I use essential oils, CBD and crystal healing with my two Romanian rescue dogs (myself too) and this summit is giving me so many other ways to insure they have the best life they possibly can

Anybody who has a dog or is considering getting a dog, friends who have sanctuaries or work in rescue centres

Fiona Revell

I got an extremly extended understanding on my dog´s behavior (and how reactive I am at times). So many issues tipped, I definitely want to follow further and I definitely fully recommend.

I want to recommend this summit to simply everyone owning and loving a furbaby. You´ll get additional ideas to what is really going on in the relationship with your dog and you´ll be reassured where you are right on other hand.

marion kitzberger

Kelly Dunbar and Denise Fenzi we’re both wonderful at outlining choice, and relationship as foundation! Bravo! New puppy owners- sport trainers to review basics and pet owners to be good overwhelmed!
Esther Stieska

I love the explanations from Doggy Dan. My 2 dogs bark at everything and are hypervigilant. I look forward to trying his thank you technique. Thanks!

A great watch for every dog owner out there!
