Would you share how working with me has helped you and your animals?
Hi. Um, I adopted Little Cricket from the SP CAA couple of years ago, she was eight years old then and had extreme separation anxiety. She spent a lot of time shaking and, and uh just being extremely nervous, she was very reactive to other dogs and terrified of small Children. She had obviously been quite traumatized in her life. I had a regular trainer who had some good tips, but it didn't help her anxiety at all. One day, I found Cheryl online after watching an ad for the trust technique, it really intrigued me. Um, so Cheryl came down and we had a few sessions and I started noticing a difference. Cricket didn't shake as much and was not as triggered by Children and other dogs. Then I joined the 12 week course and slowly but surely it's changed this little dog completely. Best of all, it formed a lovely connection between us and willingness to co-operate that I've never had with another dog. I can't explain truly how it works the way it does, but I realize now for sure that animals are far more aware of how we're feeling and in that way we are communicating with them every minute and, um, I continue to do the technique and, um, I think she's, she's just going to continue improving. She's a very happy little dog now.
