TTouch Workshop
10/18/2008

Our first TTouch workshop went really well. The participants generally have never heard about TTouch before, and came mostly out

Pam used different dogs to show the technique, and everybody was impressed to see how well the dogs responded. It is easy to learn, and practically anybody can do it at home. And it is a good way for a dog and an owner to spend quality time together. |

Pepper Guzman has tons of experience with all kinds of training, it was good to have her here. Two hours went by so fast!

Pilgrim came to us a few months ago. Although exuberantly friendly with people, she was leash aggressive and very noisy around other dogs. We don?t think she?s barked her last, but she has much improved.
