Our female golden retriever was 9 months old when we started training with Jed in our home. Penny, a smart, loving, high energy dog, sometimes treated commands as negotiable and was nervous and unsure of herself at times. As a senior I became concerned that Penny might become too strong and rambunctious for me to handle safely, so we hired Jed to help shape her into a reliably obedient dog. I had built a good relationship with her but needed help to communicate clearer messages, hold her accountable and learn good timing for commands, consequences, affirmation and reward. Teaching me clearer communication and practicing that consistently increased her confidence facing challenging or frightening situations, made her calmer greeting others, is making recall more consistent and has generally helped make her a more obedient pet. With Jed's help Penny has become a wonderful addition to the family.
