Hi Sharon. It’s Marie. Reese’s mom. I just wanted to give you a big thank you. We just passed a major test on our walk. We passed a flock of turkeys and a squirrel and a dog barking all at the same time. She looked over and perked up her ears. I told her to leave it and she walked on. I didn’t even have to tighten my grip on her leash.
Service dog webinar “helpful, delightful, engaging”
Hi Sharon,
Thank you for your presentation yesterday. I found it very informative and helpful. I teach Basic Manners and Puppy Kindergarden group classes as well as offer private day training in Reno, NV and have been approached by a client with a disability to look into setting up an Owner-Trained Service Dog training club with her. This project is on hold while she trains her own service dog and we will discuss again once her energy level allows. She trained her previous service dog through a group in Utah but that group disbanded. I’m not sure I would want to re-constitute that group as I think the training methods were often aversive. I felt so lucky when your webinar popped up and that you are a KPA-CTP! I knew it was going to be quality info. Your presentation was very helpful and I especially liked learning more about how important it is to screen owners to make sure they get the support they need and help owners understand the work involved. The quiz and poll were delightful and engaging. Thanks, again.
I’m sharing your contact info with my client and will encourage her to reach out if she needs more than I can provide as a pet dog trainer. I just wanted to reach out and say thank you and let you know that one or both of us might be reaching out in the future if the project moves forward.
Best,
Bev

Meghan and Stormlight – Service Dog Consultation
Sharon,
Thank you so much for your time yesterday, and I hope Barnum’s appointment with the surgeon went well. My dad and I were both so impressed by you and deeply appreciate the way you took us through everything. As you know, Storm will never be a service dog; she will however be able to have a happy life and I’ve decided that she will remain with me as a pet for the rest of it. I’m planning on reaching out to the trainer you recommended in Somerville after Thanksgiving, and working with my vet to investigate potential allergies she might have and get a full thyroid panel, try to get her feeling as much better as possible. I truly appreciate all of the information you gave me and am enjoying reading through the prints and digital information both.
As a quick aside, would you be able to remind me of the name of the toy you showed us that looks like a giant cat toy, the thing with the dangling toy on a string attached to the stick? Storm would absolutely love playing with one of those, I’m getting her one for Hanukkah, and I cannot for the life of me remember what you called it. Thanks so much! She’s going to be SO happy to have that, especially since I’ll be able to bring it when we are visiting my parents and play with it in their fenced in yard in the snow soon enough.
Again, thank you for your time and your kindness taking me through a difficult discussion I needed to have. I would like to work with you in the future on finding and training a service dog; for right now, I just wanted to reach out and say thank you for the meeting and for sharing your knowledge.
All the best,
Meg
Update :) [Sally’s Puppy Consult with Christina & family]
Just letting you know that your visit was exactly what we needed!
It was a great reminder to Neale and I about enforcing the right behaviors, and reminding ourselves that all we need to do is 15 min a day. And the Be a Tree lesson with Clara was INCREDIBLE! She’s excited to tell her friends when they come over.
I’ve ordered a second crate for upstairs in our bedroom, and bought an extra leash for tethering. Most of her meals/snacks today were out of the treat ball while in the play pen. It was great to be able to fold laundry and know she was occupied safely. We are going less aggressive with her walks and letting her focus on exploring.
I’m going to research a little about some cat training for Huey. I think he would like it and benefit.
I’m sure I’ll have some questions and whatnot, but I wanted to thank you for squeezing us in on short notice. It was 100% worth it!!
Best,
Christina
“The most useful consultation in a long time” – Shannon Bayless KPA CTP
Shannon Bayless is a professional dog trainer in Georgia whose clientele are primarily pet dog owners. She consulted with me about working with service dog training clients. Here is the email she sent after our phone consultation.
Sharon,
Yours is the most useful consultation fee I’ve paid in a long time! I really appreciate the prep work you did and your generous sharing of documents before we even had our call. The call we had was packed with the exact, straightforward information I needed to proceed with more involved service dog training. Just as important, the questions you asked before our call made me look at some inefficiencies in my business and I was ready to hear your good advice on fixing those time and money leaks. Considering the tremendous value I just received, your consultation was a bargain! Thank you!
