“When I first tried the Masterson Method, Bear became very fidgety and realized he might be carrying a lot of anxiety. Bear still loves to retrieve, but he is not so obsessive about it. I am very pleased with his progress and new behaviors and excited to see what might be next for him.”
“We are still noticing changes in his behaviour, he is a lot calmer and not nearly as reactive to other dogs. He is now more inclined to watch (at a distance) as the other dogs walk past rather than barking and lunging at them.“
“The book shows how to do the technique. The online instruction helps me see real life, and those things that do not go by the book for me to think outside the box.”
“My biggest take away was how different dogs are from horses in this work. My girls were unsure about the subtle work but are getting with it. Even off the body, they both are looking around (the feel it) but show what I call calming signals (looking away, moving) as they slip into the energy.”
“It is so easy to be in a rush day to day, not really noticing all the little subtle things. This course has helped me interpret Snacks on a deeper level, which is just incredible.”
“I think that doing an initial online course, rather than just reading through the book (even though the QR video clips are very helpful), is a good motivator to get started on working with dogs! The group had a relaxed atmosphere. Having the instructor do the demonstration first and then our practice with instructor feedback worked very well.”
“Lola is now more connected with me and trusting of me. She has more energy and a “spring” in her step now. I’m amazed of the positive changes in four weeks! I recommend the Read and Release course for dog owners, rescue facilities, foster homes, or anyone involved with dogs.”
“Loved learning The Masterson Method with Bella. We deepened our connection and it really helped relieve her anxiety.”
“I was finding it hard to bond and connect with my new dog, Scout. The course has helped me build that relationship with him.”
“I wish I had filmed Pixie before I took the Masterson Method Canine Read and Release Online Training Class because Pixie’s movement before and after the class instruction is so amazing! To see her move more freely now brings me much joy. What a special way to give back to a longtime canine friend!”
