testimonials

 What a great weekend! Once again attending a seminar with detection guru Don Blair. Don’s clear instruction and knowledge resulted in huge improvements in the dog/handler teams from July. Then there was the incredible transformations in the dogs from Saturday to Sunday!

Thanks for another outstanding presentation at For Your K9 Friday night. You gave us a lot of excellent ideas to think about and incorporate into our training.  You could also give courses on how to give a workshop. You are always organized, on time, on task and highly efficient.
