Jodi really put things into perspective for us. She explained how our behavior will affect the behavior of Pecos. She was VERY detailed, allowed us to ask questions and then made sure we understood her answers. Jodi teaches in a way that is memorable. I was also very appreciative that when we were practicing the techniques, she corrected me when I was doing the correction on Pecos incorrectly. She made sure that were "getting" the techniques and implementing them in a way that would improve Pecos' behavior. I like how cognizant Jodi was of Pecos. She watched his behavior and mannerisms and went out of her way to make sure not to disrupt him. She wanted to set an environment for him so he would be comfortable with his training. I also liked that she directed us on how to train him, she did not completely take over his training - she participated actively and guided us. I saw results with the walking on the leash and the stimulus, training Pecos not to bark when someone knocks on the door, was more challenging. Some of the things we were doing (Alpha rolling) was actually causing more aggressive behavior so it is good that Jodi stepped in and gave us better tools.
