Helpful Start But Needs More Detail

I got this to understand how to begin training my dog for service tasks and while it gave me a good overview I felt like some parts needed more depth. The basics were helpful and easy to follow especially the early obedience steps. I used one of the focus exercises during a trip to the store and it really helped my dog stay calm. Still I found myself needing to look up extra info later. It’s a good place to start but not the full picture.

Great coverage of dog training

I loved the stories, especially Liam and Atlas. As a trauma psychologist, this was as close to PTSD as one gets. Good job!!
