After the last dog fight, I thought I would have to place one of my dear dogs in another home. Thankfully, I was introduced to Beth and not only are my dogs living in the same house without arguing but are actually beginning to play together. Thanks Beth, for keeping our 'family' together.

Six weeks ago, my dog was winning the Alpha race. I was the big loser and afraid I was going to get hurt or someone in my family was going to get hurt. Beth, you helped me understand the dynamics of our relationship and become Alpha again without getting physical with my 'boy' or hurt by him. You also showed me how to read him and look for signs of dominance on his part. Thank you.

Hi Beth: Dixie and I just completed the Advanced Obedience class with you. I love to walk with my dog. Dixie 's behavior on our walks has improved tremendously! We are both happy about this fact. We're looking forward to additional classes to improve her ability to "stay tuned" to me, when off the leash. Thanks again!! Evelyn & Dixie Althouse

Hello Beth, We just wanted to take the opportunity to let you know how Ian is progressing. It is amazing. We have seen such improvements. Our cat, Sandi, has also gotten some courage and we really think the cat is trying to mess with Ian. Even though Ian is on a lead at all times by our side while we are home, Sandi continues to approach him with caution and comes around for a bit. They were both even laying on the bed with us this morning for a few minutes, with nothing but my leg separating them. I As an update on everything else, we are working the commands with him and he is doing very well Overall, everything is going quite well. Thanks again for your very much needed assistance and teaching our puppy some very needed manners and respect.

I just wanted to say 'thanks' again. Cash got his 2nd UD leg with an awesome score. I wish you could have heard the comments made at ringside. Everyone was very impressed, especially when they realized how young he is. You are the best, Beth. We never could have done it without you. Just one to go, yeah. -DH

Beth, I took your advise and had my Doberman tested for hypothyroid disorder. It turns out that he has it, in fact his level was at 1.0 which is dangerously low as you know a healthy thyroid level is between 3.5 and 4. My vet also concluded that his unprompted aggression, mood swings,weight loss and coat problems were all due to the thyroid problem. He has been on medication now for 3 weeks and he has gained 8 lbs, his coat is the best looking it has ever been and he is back to his old self, all thanks to you. My Vet even said that "you definately know your stuff" Thanks again for your help you saved my Dobe.

Well, we did it! It is so hard to believe that just a few years ago I had never taken a dog into the obedience ring. Now I have two dogs (a Rott and GSD)that have attained their Utility Dog titles; both did it easily by the time they were 3 years old. All the credit goes to Beth Bradley, who took a very green Novice handler and taught me more than enough to obtain not one but two Utility titles - one of AKC's most difficult titles to achieve. Thanks, Beth. You are the best!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for making me understand that training my dog(s) can and should be fun for both handler and dog. They love to work and I truly enjoy putting them through their paces.

Beth, Without your guidance and help, Magic and I could never have accomplished what we have done so far. You are truly the best trainer and I recommend you to everyone. Your accomplishments and the accomplishments of your students are a walking testimonial.
Thank you.

I saw you work an uncontrollable Shar-Pei to an obedience, well manner, companion, in just a week. I was told that it took just two private lessons and I was so impressed. I think your training methods are unapproachable and you have such a talent. What a great job Beth and my congratulations to the owner for his commitment to his shelter dog.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I wanted to let you know how much I have learned and used the Basic and Puppy Kindergarten CDs . I have a seven month old german shepherd that is learned very quickly and I believe the CD's are making it much more enjoyable for both of us. The video clips are wonderful It is much easier than just reading about it. Thanks again! Dawn & "Rebel"

Thank you for taking Sadie on. We see a dramatic improvement in her training and we will continue to work with her. The aggressions is something that we will continue to work on also. She has been very aggressive with our other dog since she came home. We have taken your advice and keep her crated at night. And are using the collar as you instructed as well. Hopefully we will be able to break her of this desire to be the dominant dog. What is funny about it – our other dog could care less. But Sadie is determined. Again, thank you – all your hard work is abundantly clear.Regards,John & Amy Donnelly
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Annie Magee is turning into a sweet, obedient girl. She's just over 4 months old. She LOVES Beth and Lorry. Beth's training is so gentle Annie responds very well. I can see Best Buddy, Beth and Lorry are going to be in our future for a while. I'm hoping we will get to CGC and Therapy Dog as Annie matures.
Great website, too! Good Luck in all your ventures!

Dear Beth and Lorry,
We can not even thank you enough for the time and dedication you gave to our puppy "Teagan"... First I would like to thank you so much for all of your help and guidance. Our friends and family tell us all the time what a change they notice in Teagan and can not even believe that it is the same dog. When we came to you, we were at the end of our leash with Teagan, as her behavior was having a significantly negative impact on our family, now she is one of the family. We are so impressed with her, but mostly your dog training skills.

Beth, Just a quick note to say thanks. I just took Sarge to the vet for his check up & shots. Everyone in the office commented on how well behaved Sarge was and how well he listened to me. He even obeyed the stand command! Thanks for helping to make my buddy a "good" dog.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My boyfriend and I got a dog (a year-old female pointer hound) about 2 months ago; your book was a god-send. I've never had a dog before and I referred to your book for so many things. Thank you so much! I'm really glad I had the opportunity to work on your book with you, and if there is anything you need help with, just let me know.
