Dear Dog Owners,

My son has a 1-year-old female pit bull. Contrary to popular belief, she does not maim people or kill small animals. She loves to play with other dogs and thinks everybody loves her as much as she loves them. But she is very active, very strong, and a very strong willed dog. She and my son recently moved into my neighborhood, and I was looking forward to having her as my companion when I walk. After a couple of exhausting and embarrassing walks, I gave up. If we saw another person (and God help me if they were walking another dog) she practically choked herself to death pulling on her leash, making it a struggle for me to remain upright. I knew it was just a matter of time before she would pull me down. I personally tried to teach her some leash walking manners but gave up on that as well. Like I said, she is a very strong willed dog and she ended up winning. After just 20 minutes with The Dog Wizard, she sat quietly and watched as another dog circled around her. I was amazed at the difference in her after just a couple of days. People would walk past us and sometimes stop to speak to her while she stood quietly wagging her tail instead of jumping on them with such a force it would almost knock them down. Now we can take pleasant walks and even if we encounter another dog off their leash, barking and following us… she stays right by my side. The money I spent on The Dog Wizard and the collar you need for this training was worth every penny.

Regards,
