Our super intelligent gorgeous Standard Poodle, Katie, had one paw out the door on her way to Rescue when my husband brought home a business card from our vet's office about Focus Point. Katie definitely thought she was in control of us. We had already had one professional dog trainer in our home. That was useless. Dave Roberts wasn't in our house more than 2 minutes and you could see the respect this dog was GIVING him. Dave has this way about him that the animals sense and respond to so well. Dave took Katie for two weeks of training shortly after the 4th of July. By Labor Day we were able to take Katie to a large family function where she interacted with children, adults, dogs and even a cat so beautifully, "off leash the entire time." Thanks to Dave's training, not only of the dog but also my husband and me, Katie is now a totally acceptable member of the family. My only regret is that I didn't know about Focus Point sooner, I would hightly recommend this dog trainer.
