Student feedback

I really liked Puppy Classes-Why off Leash and Recalls & Heeling to get the puppies started right. The puppy housebreaking was very good. I've never seen that bell system. Dr Dunbar's will be good for me to work my young lab as we just started classes but really like his methods to work at home. I sent invites out to several of my friends who are dog breeders, trainers and groomers along with friend who have dogs that might need more help and ideas.

Pretty much all. Really liked what Dr. Bush shared, also oral health by Dr. Kangas was very informative and good explanations. Also last speaker, Chelsea Kent. Although, sickened me to find out the horrible things, that some of these greedy pet food companies put into ourpet food. Pretty sickening! Thank you so much for these pet summits, I'm learning so much and becoming more educated. I took a lot of notes, hopefully I can remember everything! Anyone and everyone who owns a pet, also people who eat animals, to find out how they are being treated and how it affects their environment

I am really getting a lot from this summit. I’m enjoying and learning so much! My only problem was day two was not available until the third day. Anyone who owns pets! Learn that there are options. One of the first things I learned as a vet tech was the people were clients, their pet was not just a patient.
Lisa Lambert

Just started watching..,. I loved Dr Ihor Basko and Dr Judy Morgan, and the moderator Dr Dee Blanco is also great. Still haven't seen the rest yet but hope to watch more in the next few days... it's not just about dogs... cats too. For animal lovers, especially if you have in your family a dog or cat. We love our veterinarian, but I have a personal interest in natural healing and care, including for our kitty, so this is reinforcing and educational.
