Monty is an extremely friendly border terrier who had appalling recall skills. Prior to attending the recall classes run by Caroline, walks with him were a challenge and not particularly enjoyable experiences for any of us. The lessons taught us some useful techniques, which we have continued to practise. Walks are enjoyed once more. In addition to the recall, the emergency “STOP!” has proved to be invaluable.
Thank you Caroline.
