Shawn did a wonderful job with our 4 month old belgian malinois, tracker. Within the 3 full days if training, tracker learned so many new commands. Not only did shawn do a great job with tracker, he also took his time explaining in detail to me and my wife, how to take command and continue with the obedience training tracker learned. Thank you so much for your time and patience with us while we all learned new techniques. – Potter family
