[NAGDU] Owner training

[Buddy Brannan]

I couldn’t agree more wholeheartedly with Julie, who, by the way, wasn’t questioning anyone’s motives, just stating a fact. If you’re owner training because you want to, are interested in the process, just plain ol’ like working with and training dogs, then owner training might be fore you. If, however, your aim is to “stick it to da man”, or because you’ve an axe to grind, then your likelihood of success is going to be severely diminished. 

BTW, Julie does excellent work. I’m fairly certain your business being taken elsewhere won’t hurt too much anyway. I hope you find something as good for as reasonable a price.
