  • Too much misinformation and lack of knowledge

    Unfortunately, while there are some points here and there that are correct and factual. But 95% of what is discussed is not factual, studies that are used are horrible done and done without context or training. She has proved over and over again that most of conversations she has very little knowledge and understanding in what she talks about. Super sad.

  • This Stuff Just Works!

    My dogs and I are so grateful for these podcasts! I tend to listen to each episode at least three times, mostly while driving in the car. I always learn something new, gain new insights. I have shared podcast episodes with the professional trainers I work with. They have adopted the approach and use the lessons learned with their other clients. The ripples spread outward ad infinitum!
