Book Testimonials:
* Small brag...my dog took first in Open Puppy yesterday. 18 starters - four points. Your book
made a huge difference in some of my handling skills. Thank you!!! Belinda (1/21/2007)
* The book was insightful and motivating like I knew it would be. Thank you for your
encouragement. Glen (8/2/2007)
*  We are very excited about Sophie, our new puppy. I need training to train her! The book is
soooo helpful. Sara (10/23/07)
*  BIG Brag....below is Hannah & Lenci with the following from her proud dad: Hannah has
taken "Winning Ways" very seriously and has become her training bible. Spring '08 was a
great season for Hannah. She ran Lenci in the derby stakes. Two 1st placements, a 2nd, a
3rd and a 4th! One of her "Blue's" came from a very competitive 16 dog stake. She will be
doing Junior Showmanship this fall (once she turns 9) and is starting to train Lenci for Senior
Hunter.
Hannah finished #5 in the country in '07 for Juniors in outdoor field events. Not bad
for a 7, turned 8 in Aug of 07, year old!  She had a win last year, 3 placements and a JH (all 4
legs), all on her own.
Would you believe she started at five years old? What an inspiration to
we older folks.  
Way to go Hannah!!! Troy (5/31/08)
