I just wanted to update you on our progress since your afternoon here. Harley and Mango do not jump on us when we walk in the door anymore, have had only one person come in since and Mango did great, Harley, well it was my stepson and he decided my new rules didn't matter and Harley took the bait. When people come to the door while they still run to it, as soon as either I or my husband get to the door they back up. This isn't perfected yet but oh so much better! Of course going outside, they wait until I am through the door and invite them out, no more tripping over dogs trying to be the first one out. I got a dog version of the horse whip and Mango loves it, in the yard or pool. Her toy and Harley's ball are put up until it's time to play, which I decide. Such easy things you taught making our lives so much better.

Our 3 year old Maltese was having barking and behavior issue so I was fortunate enough to find Debra at "Lead me and I will follow". She is very calming , but firm with her training. Today we brought our dog home. I'm amazed how different...there's no barking and she follows our commands. We will continue to work with her at home . 1 or 2 times a week I'll take Maggie back to mingle with her other dogs too. If ur having any issues with your dog, do yourself and your dog a great favor and call Debra at LEAD ME I WILL FOLLOW. You won't be dissipointed.

I personally think that Deborah is a magician or a wizard. My dog used to act like I was away for 5 hours when I would go out in the morning to get the newspaper or to put mail in the mailbox. Deborah worked with him yesterday and I walked out twice this morning and he was fine when I walked in the door normally he would jump up and down so excited that I walked back in and barking happily this today absolutely nothing he just sat there and waited for me to come back in and then followed me back into the kitchen I don't know what she did to him but she's absolutely amazing
