[Flagdu] Question

[Toni King]

Hello,
I am not sure just what you are asking.. is he strict with the handler, 
the dog?

I can tell you John B. is the best trainer and is a tender and caring man.
I can also tell you he is very easy to talk to and can make anyone feel 
at home working a well trained guide.  He is a gentle soul but does 
expect his dogs to behave and as he puts it "No nonsense now" and will 
make sure your guide is sound and that you have a solid understanding 
of how to work your guide.

I have never heard him raise his voice, nor have I ever felt uneasy 
around this man.
He will put both guide and handler through the paces though.  I had 
heard before getting my first guide from long time handlers that home 
training is not as intense as training at a school, that is not the 
case with John. You will get a good work out, but this in my opinion is 
a good thing.

I hope this answered your question and feel free to email me directly 
if you would like.
Best Wishes,
Toni
