****Update from a year later: My review after a year.
It’s been one year since I took my dog, Robin to training. We suspect she was used as a bait dog so she had conditioned herself to attack other dogs and humans that were not me. She went to a 5 week program under the watch and care of one of High5 main trainers. This was kind of a Hail Mary move on my part because I felt like I was trapped in my apartment with a dog that would auto attack because she had been so abused and I felt like I had no other options. Together, both Robin and I learned what to do in situations that would trigger and stress her out. It’s taken a lot of work, but a year later she’s a completely different and confident dog…dare I say normal?
I was so scared but I gave training a chance. I’m glad I did. I don’t know where I’d be with out High5 and the team.
***Original: My Shepard mix Robin had severe behavioral issues. We suspect she had been a bait dog, so she conditioned herself that humans and other dogs are bad. She had bit my mom and she would charge at other dogs. With Amber’s help, Robin learned how to be a complete and confident dog. She learned that not all humans are bad and that other dogs can be her friends. 10/10 recommend High5 Dog Training. Proud to be part of their training alumni. Robin is happy!!!
