Adam and Valerie,
 
Just wanted to say Thanks again for doing such a great job with Champ, it is amazing!!!!  We loved him very much before, but know we can love him and actually enjoy him.  So far this week he has been to Tractor Supply with us and and a man commented on how well behaved our dog was.
He also was walked by our 11yr old neighbor on Sunday evening and this morning he shared his bed/place with a 12wk old very hyper Deberman that keep climbing on his back, he did not even flinch....(I took pictures).
Anyway, we are looking forward to letting him come to Companion Club, Maintance Training and hopefully sometimes when we are at work.  Thanks again for everything, we have really enjoyed getting to know you guys.

  Things have been fantastic!!!!! We can even work in the yard and have the boys out with us and they'll stay in the yard.    We have had few growling bouts, but when told no they stopped.  We even had my daughter's dog here this past week and had no problems with any of the dogs.  We are very impressed with them.  We can tell if we haven't been strict with the rules because they take longer to respond to their commands. 
I have been telling the vet and everyone how great your program is.

We are soooo excited about our new dog, Sophie.  She is beautiful, has matured, and is a joy to be around.
She did so good this weekend.  Darrell and I continued to work with her as you guys have instructed us to do.  She did really well for us.  As Adam said, waiting for "her turn" to enter or exit is truly her most difficult exercise. When she doesn't get it right the first time, we are having her sit at our imaginary line and sit until we say "OK".  This morning it took 3 times...but that is ok because we know she knows better and will eventually quit trying us on that one.  LOL
We kept up with the exercises on Saturday, let her rest, loved on her and then we bathed her outside, which she did great for.We took her on quite a long walk yesterday in our neighborhood and for the first 1/2 of the walk, I held her on the leash.  Then, I dropped the leash and then took it off completely!!!!  She never left my side.  When I stopped, she stopped.  Sometimes not right beside me.....but she did it!  And another exciting thing is that last nite, I was working on something at the kitchen table and she laid beside me and then went over to PLACE.  She never tried to destroy anything and I actually got to love on her.  Now my tears are of joy and not frustration. :-)
Thank you guys so much.
Darrell, Karen, and Sophie


PS:  I will be coming Thursday morning to stay with you until my mom and dad pick me up Sunday.  I will bring my food. Is there anything else that I need to bring?
Sophie

Thanks!

Dear Adam, Valerie, children and staff of Shiloh K-9
     I just want to thank you for the training and moral support in the training of Maxx (55 pound mixed breed hound) and Zoe (45 mixed breed pit bull terrier).  When we started this journey they were just about to turn 2 years old and so out of control that my joy in them was waning terribly.  I have always enjoyed our daily walk and really thought I was “doing it right” by walking them with a flex lead and allowing them to smell the roses along the way, but as they got older and reached their adult weights “I was being walked” and no one was enjoying the process.  I could not walk around the block with them, without one or both pulling, and heaven forbid another dog was in view.  They would become so excited that they would wind up fighting with each other and my neighbors would turn around and go the other way.  We were quickly becoming a very unwelcome site in the neighborhood.  I would have to time the walks so no one else was out.  Now I am the envy of the neighborhood! I walk them together at my side, they go where I go and if another dog is approaching I can control the situation, allowing for a safe and uneventful pass. I can even stop and have a conversation with my neighbors, while they sit calmly at my side awaiting my command to heel. Each time this happens I am so proud of us-your training, their obedience and my leadership all working together.   In the house they will sit quietly at the door waiting for me to pass through first or to allow guests to enter. If my work schedule is such that I arrive home very late at night or the weather is inhospitable I can count on my companions to willfully walk on the treadmill for an hour than gladly reenter their kennels to allow us all a full nights sleep.  Maxxs’ food aggression has become nonexistent, he sits quietly waiting for the food to be placed in his kennel, or if outside sits at the designated place and waits until he is given the okay to start eating. He will still occasionally appropriate a forbidden object and will need a gentle reminder to “leave it’ which he does and I can safely retrieve my prize.    Zoe remains my challenge, most of the time she is a wonder and an energetic companion but there are still times when she thinks she can be the boss.  She on occasion will try to dominate her companion Maxx but can quickly be put back in her place as princess, and he the prince, by me the Queen leader.  Most times is only takes a verbal command with an occasional e-collar reminder.  This is getting better and better and it is hard for me realize it has been only 4 months since they completed their training  I am looking forward to a long and happy relationship with my companions, and you their trainers and I know we all consider you friend and leader.
 Again thank you!
Gail K Schulz

Valerie,
Thank you again for all your TLC!!!!
We have had many successes in 24 hours: person walking on the street and I stopped Reilly after one bark, the garbage truck, the loud truck next door, and heeling when we walked a mile and a half.  It is amazing!
I am amazed you sent back all Reilly's stuff.  You are so organized.
Thank you again

Hi Adam and Valerie,
I am so happy with the results of Gabe's and Gracie Grey's obedience training , and a little shocked honestly. I never believed that my two, especially Gracie, would EVER be any different. But they are so GOOD, and getting better every day. It's like magic, right in front of my eyes.  Deene (Brian Kennon's step-mom) is one of my dearest friends and when I was having so much trouble with my two and the previous training we had did not help, she told me about you guys - over and over, about Sue's deep conviction to your program. I was doubtful that it would work and I really did not like leaving them. But Deene cares so much about animals and treats hers like children - I just had believe it would be ok to leave my babies for a month. Then when Brian and Wendy Kennon left their two "children", I knew it was time.
They are still learning but I almost never have to "remind" them now. We are sticking to the "rules" and plan to keep it up.  Everyone notices the difference.  Here are just a few of the highlights...
*    Gracie does not boss Gabe around, nor does she take (or even try
to take) his food.
*    Gabe stands his ground with Gracie when they play.
*    Gracie does not boss me around. She waits until she is invited
to sit with me and she sits nicely.
*    We can watch TV (even shows with dogs and active kids) without
Gracie barking non-stop and trying to get IN the TV.
*    Gracie does not chase airplanes and rarely goes crazy after
birds.
*    I can talk on the phone without constant barking.
*    They don't bark when I kennel them, even if people are over.
*    They walk nicely, and are getting better (less barking) when we
walk past my neighbors dogs.
*    They sleep in their kennels, without barking.
*    They occupy themselves (playing or resting together and
separately) at home, even when I have company. Gracie does not follow me around everywhere and whine for me to sit down with her.
*    They come EVERYTIME I call them - on or off lease. (THIS IS SO
AMAZING!)
*    They don't bark in the car - EVER. They are totally comfortable
in the car - in a crate. (THIS IS SO AMAZING!)
*    Gracie does not bark all day (almost never) while at the
groomers.
        
I am TOTALLY, TOTALLY happy with their training - I cannot say enough! I tell everyone!

Thanks so much!

Hey guys,  Kaine is doing great!! – We couldn’t be happier. We have been walking him, but up until last night we didn’t walk past any dogs. He did really well, he got a little “excited” and we had to nick him a few times – but nothing that we couldn’t handle (like before).  While it was very difficult having Kaine away from us for so long – the process has been fantastic and the results speak for themselves. Thank you very much for teaching us how to remain in control of our nearly 100lbs dog.  Anything we can do to help spread the word about you guys please let us know

Sincerely, Matthew

THANK YOU and ADAM so much for giving me a dog I can now enjoy. He was a real terror and frankly I didn't have any enjoyment of him before.    Iva

Hello, I work at the Village Vet and you guys have trained for a few of our clients, and WOW what great results!!! Everyone seems so much happier (pet and parent). When you see the before and after results it really makes a difference. I will say you and your company will be top on my list of training referrals. Thank you so much for your passion and hard work!
Grace

Adam and Valerie,

Just wanted to say thanks for doing such a great job with our "baby".   
I just got back from a great run with her--squirrels and birds were no threat to my life this time!  Just a few minor corrections (at the beginning to keep her next to me instead of in front, and when she looked away/got a little distracted).  What a difference!  Thanks for all your hard work and compassion.
Eve and John

Dear Adam & Valerie,  I want to thank you both for training Drake to be an obedient and Mobility Assistant dog.   He has received his paper and tag that identifies him as a registered service dog.  I can't thank you both enough. When I think back to when we first contacted you all  when he was 3 months old, to now - what a turn around.  Adam you and Valerie are great trainers, just after 6 sessions Drake had made such a significant change and now here he is, just a few months shy of being two years old and he is a service dog.  You have also given me the confidence that I lacked in handling Drake.  What a great feeling to know that I have control of my dog and that I can go anywhere in public and know that Drake can and will assist me.  Please thank the girls for me as they played a huge role in Drake interacting with children.  I love you guys.  I pray God will continue to bless you.   Karyn Bray


Dear Adam and Valerie: Thanks for the excellent training for our dog, Copper. We enjoy him more and more because of how much his behavior has improved. We even included him in our family photo this year for our Christmas cards. He sat so obediently throughout the entire photo shoot. That would never have happened before. We are also so pleased that our five-year-old son is no longer afraid to play in the yard when the dog is out. It was great that you included him in the training so he now has control of the dog also. Have a great week, and thanks again for all you help. You're the greatest!

Sincerely, George, Anita and Josiah Fox, Reidsville, NC


Adam and Valerie,
 
We are so pleased with Bubba now.  He listens and stays when we tell him to.  He doesn't jump up on our boys and we don't worry about him running around like a crazy dog!  You guys have worked wonders and we will highly recommend you guys to anyone who needs you.  Thank you so much for training our Bubba!
 
Craig & Kari


Dakota is doing great!  Yes the suggestions worked and no more problems with the mishaps in the house.  We have made many walks up the sidewalk at the street and absolutely no pulling or tugging His transition has been wonderful, though.  He is a real joy to have around and to have home again.  I cannot thank you guys enough for everything you did for him.  I really watched a miracle transpire in this program. I couldn't be more proud of him. 

Thanks for everything!

Adam and Valerie,
We have just returned from a week at the beach.  Teddy and Jenne were a delight to have along.  I can't begin to tell you what a difference the collar makes in their behavior.
They were able to walk and run on the beach without any worries.  They showed good manners and never ran up to other people.  They greeted only those people who asked to pet them.
We received many compliments on their behavior.  The training has the best thing we could have done for them.
Thank you,
Anne

Adam and Valerie Witherspoon

It is with great pleasure that I tell you how much we are enjoying "Taco" and how well I believe she has adjusted.  She is absolutely great with all 4 kids and although her and the cat had some serious curiosity for a day or two they get along good.  I wish that I could relate how satisfied we are with an awesome protection dog and two most awesome trainers.  Our experience could not have been any better and your ongoing support at any time is invaluable.  It is with extreme confidence and satisfaction that I would and will refer anyone to you.  Thank you for taking time to understand our situation, having patience to find the perfect dog, and for training her to our needs.  Perfect dog-

Perfect job!  Thank you both so much.

Adam,                                                

I am grateful to you.  Bear and I have a much better quality of life.  You do a super job and I have been telling folks about how professional you and Valerie are.  Your manner and kind demeanor are very conducive to positive training for pets (and their owners). 

Susan

 

Adam,

I have to say I wasn't sure about your class with my spoiled to death Bichon,  but there has been such an improvement.  I have to say if you put the 15 minutes in it a day like they say, you will see result!  I probably don't do that like I should, but that's nobody's fault but my own!  The techniques are so simple for you and your dog to understand.  Adam and Valerie have been so helpful and I highly recommend them.

Sharon- Mother of Miles

 

Adam,

Happy to see Dobey's picture on the website.  Took him to the vet yesterday to cut nails,they said you worked wonders with him!  Everyone was talking about how beautiful he was and how obedient!!!! Great Job!!

Joan

 

I was very please with the results of the training of my Doberman.  The Witherpsoons did everything to make the transition of our dog back to our home a comfortable one with home visits, and answered many follow up calls and emails.  I highly recommend them.

Tami

 

Hershey is a joy to be around since his training at Shiloh K-9. He walks at heel 2 miles every morning without a leash, on the road. Hershey used to scare all of the little kids who came to our home. Now, the little kids can look eye to eye with Hershey and he is no scare. Hershey has also done well with his retrieval process since you guys have worked with him. I think he will make a fine bird dog and pet. We wish you guys the best in your business. We will continue to recommend your services to everyone. You are truly making owning a dog a joy for me and my family. Thank you!!!

Martha

 

Hey Valerie and Adam:

We just wanted to email you and say "WOW"! We are impressed with your training of Miss Dutchess! She is doing great and we can not believe the improvement in just 3 weeks! You have done an excellent job!  

Debbie

We are both very much Pleased with what Both of you did in his training progress;  Again a Very Big Thank You.

Adam and Valerie,

We'd like to thank you for all the wonderful work you did with Chaz through your in-home training program. As you know, Chaz had fear-aggressive behavioral issues. We'd tried many other trainers and explored every type of training method. All had been without success, until we found Shiloh-K9. When you came to evaluate Chaz, we saw a patient trainer who really seemed to take charge of him with a calm and friendly demeanor. You assured us that if Chaz experienced full-time training with you, we'd see a totally different dog. Well, he really is a totally different dog. All we'd hoped for was an improvement, but we've received so much more. You built up his, and our, confidence so we can now walk into town and stores without the tremendous stress we felt before. He's maintained all of his personality, but has become a more calm and friendly companion. Thanks for all you've done for our family.

Adam & Valerie,

Wow! I finally got the dog that I wanted. Thanks for training ME! Jack and I really benefitted from our classes. I have had dogs all my life and when I got this Lab puppy I was ready to give  him away after a month. You and your girls are great. Even Dr. Williams said she noticed a big difference in him. I have told everyone about your services. jack and i have settled into our routine and i am happy I kept him Thank you, Audrey Howell

 

Hello Adam and Valerie,

Just a quick hello and how are things with you all.  We love the site you have posted.  All our babies are settled in even Ethel (the cat). Thank you for all you have done for us.

Steve , Melody, Sweetie, Buddy, Jasmine, and Ethel

 

Hi Valerie and Adam, wanted to say Thank you for your help with Kota . The collar is working well, (now that she will leave the porch) She is still a little timid but is improving. Thank you guys. Her nickname is no longer "road-kill"  I'm so glad that you both provide solutions for problem areas. Good luck in all that you do.

thanks again, Debbi

looking forward to seeing you in Walmart.

 

Dear Adam & Valerie-
We owe you a great thank you for the tremendous work you were able to accomplish with Coach. A dog who was once very aggressive and no longer able to be taken on walks in the community is now walking/running off leash, at heel, amongst groups of people.  He has such a better quality of life now that he can be trusted to respond to commands.  Our relationship with Coach has grown immensely since your in-home training program.  We are enjoying trips to the park, to the college, actually anywhere where he is welcome.  We continue to work on his compatibility with strangers and we are making progress with others being able to approach and pet.  We look forward to working with you on the next big step in our lives very soon - the arrival of the newest pack leader.  We will never own another dog that doesn't spend the first few weeks with Shiloh K-9!!!  We appreciate your hospitality and we felt very comfortable leaving our furry family member with you!   What a tremendous job you do in helping both the dog and the owners!  THANK YOU!
Todd & Andi ( Hickory, NC )

 

Adam I just wanted to say thank you for help us with our dog shadow he is doing a lot much better now. Thanks!

Maria Millan

 

Hey Adam and Val,

      Matilda got her gift in the mail.  THANK YOU!!!  that was so nice.  Everything is going well.  We have been using Matilda's E collar a lot and her training is coming along quite well.  She listens to Luke better than she does me, but we are impressed with her skills.  She is turning into our dream dog :)

Thank you so much,

Luke and Kristen

 

Gracie did great!!! We took her to Petco. Afterward, Jeff went into Mario's to get dinner and Gracie and I sat outside. A little girl about 3 or so asked to pet her. She sat very still. I was very pleased. We also walked her down to

Tate Street
for coffee. A lot of people hang out down there and she was very polite!!! We just walked her 5 miles. She did great. Of course she wanted to chase the leaves. She saw the neighbor dogs (3 of them). She was, again, polite... sat and stayed. We haven't had any problems with crating her. I covered her crate last night and she didn't make a peep.  Thanks for all your help!!! We love our "new" dog!

Kari

Adam and Valerie,

I thought I would let you know that Roxy is doing great. except for the ocasonial nipp at new people that come upstairs she is doing fine. I have been taking her to parks and to play at friends houses with their dogs and she as been awsome. Thank you for working with me and helping Roxy.

Thanks, Shannon

 

IT WORKED!  IT WORKED!!!  He came when I called him!  I let Gordon off the leash and he was so excited but he came running as fast as he possibly could when I called him and he sort of lingered around me.  It was great!  If he could he would thank you personally for his freedom he promptly found the nastiest pile of whatever and rubbed his chin neck and shoulders in it.  This is one of his favorite things to do and one of my least favorites!  Anyway he is seeming to really get place and down  - what a great experience this class has been thank you again!

In July 2006, My husband and I adopted Leo, a 3 month old German-Shepherd-mix from an animal shelter. The shelter said he was a stray, but didn't have any history on him. He was quite fearful in the shelter but we assumed he would warm up when we got him home. Although Leo was got along well with other dogs and,  most importantly, our 2 year old daughter, his fear issues became a real problem in other ways.Though he did not show aggression he was deeply insecure and had great difficulty accepting leadership. Unfortunately, my husband and I didn't exactly help the situation because, at the time, we had no idea how to be good pack leaders. My husband tended to rule with a loud voice and sudden movements which scared Leo (to the point he would urinate when my husband reprimanded him.) I on the other hand, showered Leo with an endless supply of affection and treats, then grew frustrated with his naughty, and often destructive, behavior. He chewed/ate everything from my daughter's books to a $300 pair of prescription glasses to the wood frame around the doors. He also had an irritating habit of pacing the floors, back and forth and bullying us for attention (pushing in between my daughter and I, nose-butting us.)  Walking Leo was the biggest nightmare, especially as he grew bigger and stronger (he's now about 75 lbs.) He pretty much walked us, pulling in any direction he chose and requiring us to pull back on him the whole time.  He was also terrified of sewer grates and trucks - so much so that he managed to pull the leash from my husband and take off running down the street. What was worse, family walks were no longer enjoyable as it caused my husband and I to argue the whole time about the "right way" to walk him. (As it turns out, neither of us was right.) At home, we argued about the right way to discipline him - we realized our dog had come between us! In the meantime, we also wasted about $100 in "training aids" - special leashes and harnesses, bitter tasting sprays - that claimed to "cure" his behavior but nothing worked. After several months of this, we almost considered finding Leo a new home but then, when I was looking up dog training on the Internet, I stumbled upon Shiloh K-9.  On our first visit to Shiloh K-9, Adam and Valerie were able to explain many of Leo's behaviors and show us what we were doing to contribute to the situation. It was welcome news because it meant that we could change our behavior and therefore help change Leo's. Working with Adam and Valerie also put my husband and I on the same page about the right way to walk, discipline and manage Leo so that we could work together as a team. Adam was immediately able to demonstrate the kind of behaviors we wanted from our dog (sitting calmly, not jumping up on us, walking confidently). Impressed, we chose to enroll Leo in the in-board training program and we are so grateful that we did. Our life with Leo is better than ever! Adam and Valerie built up Leo's confidence, taught him to accept leadership and how to obey several commands such as sit, stay, here, rest, etc. Leo's progress was obvious the first time we visited during his stay. For example, I was for the first time ever able to walk Leo using my left hand, arm down and relaxed and without Leo pulling me all over the place. He responded to our commands, he was calmer and visibly more sure of himself and his role with us. Today, Leo is like a new dog: walks are enjoyable and relaxing, he no longer freaks out near sewers, he listens to and obeys our commands, doesn't bully us for attention and respects us as his pack leaders (which makes for happier dogs and humans.)  We finally can enjoy our dog.  It's  important to remember that training is a process, it's not magic pill or a quick-fix. It requires commitment and consistency; on the rare occasion that Leo "messes up" it's almost always because we haven't done our job correctly.  Thankfully, Adam and Valerie armed my husband and I with all the methods and knowledge we  needed to continue Leo's progress at home. They were always available when we had questions, even over the holidays, and always responded with a clear explanation. This means no more arguments for my husband and I because we know Adam and Valerie are just a phone call or email away! Their expertise, support and patience has made all the difference in our life with Leo.

Adam and Valerie:

Thanks to you both for the training with Abby.  She is now a joy to be around.  We can have her out and not have to worry that she will chew everything in sight.  

Abby looks forward to working with the training dummy and retrieving.

We feel that the money spent on her training was a wise investment.

Thanks......Joyce

 

ADAM & VALERIE,

      WE WANT TO THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HELP WITH CHOCA. I WAS WORRIED AT FIRST WHEN I SAW HOW HYPER SHE WAS & THAT SHE WAS ONLY 10-MONTHS OLD & HAD ALWAYS BEEN KEPT OUTSIDE. I WAS THINKING THAT IT WOULD TAKE A MIRACLE TO GET HER CALM AND HOUSEBROKEN. BUT, YOU SHOWED US HOW EASY THIS COULD BE DONE.YOU WERE THERE TO ANSWER ALL OUR QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS.WE THANK YOU FOR MATCHING US UP WITH CHOCA AND TAKING US THROUGH OBEDIENCE AND E -COLLAR TRAINING. WE GET COMPLIMENTS AND WORDS OF AMAZEMENT EVERYWHERE WE TAKE CHOCA. PEOPLE CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT SHE IS A LITTLE OVER A YEAR OLD, AND IS AS WELL BEHAVED AS SHE IS.WE RECOMMEND YOUR SERVICE TO EVERYONE WE MEET WITH DOGS.YOU ARE TRULY A " GOD-SENT". WE KEEP YOUR BUSINESS CARDS WITH US AT ALL TIMES.THANK YOU FOR CHOCA AND FOR TRAINING US.

                                         LANE , PAULA , & CHOCA THOMPSON

Adam and Valerie,

You are GREAT  trainers;I have to admit I was somewhat skeptical before the training actually began. But your work is worth it's salt.THANKS AGAIN!                   

                                                                                  Joan,Ron and Bo

Adam & Valerie,

Being a business owner myself, I first would like to compliment your exemplary business practices. Second, let me say how much I appreciate the personal touches you added to your business practices. Being a bit nervous about leaving my new pup with strangers, your kept me posted with updates and pics thru email(many of which I noticed were late night and early mornings). Later in the program, you allowed flexible times to come out and work with Josie. One of my concerns were of Josie's newly cropped ears, which were quickly put to rest with the knowledge that Valerie had worked as a vet assistant with much experience with cropped ears. Once the program ended, it had not, you guys stopped by my place of business to check up on how she (and I) were adjusting to what WE had learned and answering any questions or problems WE were experiencing. And last, I feel that I have become a better pet owner, and Josie, a pet that understands how to be a good companion.

Sincere Thanks,

Steven Booth

Dear Adam and Valerie,

 

Tom and I would like to express our gratitude to both of you and your children for the love affection and discipline given to glacier during his stay with you. I never had a moment of concern while we were out of town.  In the past I have always called the boarding facility to inquire on how our pets were doing.  Our relationship with you has been a wonderful satisfying experience.  As Promised you took a rebellious 90lb, 9 month old  ( somewhat ) juvenile delinquent puppy and turned him into a confident, respectful, and obedient

one year old.  Not being use to very large dogs there were many days I had my doubts about how I could put up with his rambunctious behavior.  Now he is a settled, sweet and I love him dearly!  Thank you for giving us a big fluffy gift of love.  In addition we feel that your daughter Meredith working with Glacier was an added plus! We are secure that glacier will respond with respect to children as well with adults. Thank you Meredith for all the hugs you gave Glacier.  We would consider it a privilege to have you use us as a reference.  Please feel free to give out our phone # or call or us any time.

Sincerely,

Kay and Tom

 

 

After purchasing the perfect puppy, my fiancé and I knew we would need to find the perfect trainer.  We found that perfect trainer at Shiloh K-9.  Matilda has learned so much from Shiloh K-9.  Matilda has mastered all of the basic commands (sit, stay, heel, here, fetch, etc.), but she has also learned how to socialize appropriately with other dogs. Unfortunately, we moved back to PA and had to leave our perfect trainer.   Adam and Val continued to work with us in finding a new trainer in PA and answered our questions via email.  We never found trainers quite like Adam and Val, but we used what we learned from them and Matilda is the perfect dog.  People are always complimenting us on our very well behaved dog!  Adam and Val were very professional and accommodating to our needs.  .  They go out of their way to ensure your dog acquires the skills needed in real case scenarios.  I would recommend Shiloh K-9 to anyone who has a dog.  I feel we not only found an exceptional trainer, but we also acquired a new friendship. I could go on and on about all that Shiloh K-9 has done for us, but I think all people need to know is that they went above and beyond my expectations and they are more than your typical dog trainers. Thanks again Adam and Val from Luke, Kristen, and or course, Matilda!

 

Adam and Valerie,

Cathy and I really do appreciate your professionalism. Bandit is the third Border Collie that we have had and probably the most spiritd one of the three.

Our second Border Collie was 15 1/2 years old when he died so we had forgotten what Border Collie puppyhood was like. In fact I thought we had made a mistake getting another Border Collie because of our age and health issues. Your training and care made the difference. We belive that Bandit has turned out to be the best of the three Border Collies we have owned. He is such a joy to us. We also want to thank you for the service of " Bark Park " for the graduates of your training. I think giviing the dogs a chance to interact with each other is great. It is a real reward to our k-9 companions just to let them be a dog

for an afternoon at " Bark Park ". Thanks for everythiing, Mac and Cathy Robertson

 

Adam and Valerie,

 

Just wanted to drop you a line or two to let you know we all enjoyed taking your Obedience training course. The 20 mints. a day is a small amount of time to get such amazing results. As you know our lab Rosie was very afraid of other dogs. The time you took to introduce her to non aggressive dogs, one on one,  gradually bringing her in contact with more aggressive dogs, has paid off tremendously. She can now go anywhere we  go,  the beach, mountains, or just a walk up town.  When other dogs come along, she is no longer afraid of them trying to run away, she wants to meet them. She is also comfortable to walk on and totally ignore them if we feel this is what she should do.  We are so proud of her .  She loves her visits to your bark park .

 

Thank you again

Taylor and Deborah Peters

 

Hello Adam and Valerie, hope you and your family are well. Just wanted to let you know that my dogs are doing great! THANKS TO YOU.

Today I went to my Vets' office for some flea and heartworm supplies, and the girls went with me. You would have been so proud of them, they walked right in and sat down like ladies.. I was very proud. The girls in the office wanted to know what I had done to them for this good behavior.

Thank you

I was concerned when I found out that the lovable stray puppy that was dropped off in our neighborhood, was a pit bull. I had heard so many scare stories about pit bulls that I was afraid to own one.  She has never been, in the least bit, aggressive toward people, but I did find that she did not like the new dog that moved in next door.  In order to be a "good" neighbor, we decided to contact Shiloh K-9 to advise us on a securer fenceless system and to help us better control our dog's behavior.  In addition to have better control of our dog, I also have less back and shoulder problems from her tugging on the leash. She is now more manageable in attention to being her lovable self.  

Thanks for your help.

Adam and Valerie:

 

Thanks to you both for the training with Abby.  She is now a joy to be around.  We can have her out and not have to worry that she will chew everything in sight.  

Abby looks forward to working with the training dummy and retrieving.

We feel that the money spent on her training was a wise investment.

Thanks......Joyce
