George Whitten January 10, 2006 My weimaraner "Suede" began his training with Diane in the puppy class. He is now seven. Thank you for helping to teach him with love, how to be such a "Good Dog"! Pam Smith Hermitage, TN - January 10, 2006 I first met Diane Sullivan in the Spring of 2002. Although I had just lost a senior Border Collie to cancer, with a totally broken heart, I found myself with a new baby to raise for the first time in many years. I had forgotten the amount of energy a young pup, much less a Border Collie projects from every cell in their little bodies. People who say Border Collies are for experienced handlers and those with lot's of time to give, are correct. Fortunately, I work at home. I received my little fella much too early because of circumstances beyond the control of best conditions. The mother dog was not producing enough milk for the entire litter and the pups were being supplimented by bottle feedings of fresh goat's milk. Knowing I was experienced with pups and that I had raised another orphan in the past on a bottle, my little fella made the trip home with my husband & I at the age of 4 weeks. He quickly became a bouncy, curious little boy coming full throttle "in my face" 24/7. He only dropped over to sleep in 10-15 minute increments every 4-5 hrs before he was right back full throttle again. Between trying to keep up with him, and taking him everywhere in public I could think of to give him as much socialization as I possibly could, I sure wasn't getting much "work" done at home. By the age of 3 months, I was fully aware that I was going to need HELP, if I was going to keep his brain busy with good things to do and not give him time to make up "bad" games of his own that would only get him into trouble (AND make living with him unpleasant for all of us). That's when I called Good Dog Training Center and talked with Diane. I took my little boy over for Diane to evaluate. Diane checked him out and watched us playing games together that I had already been doing with him to help occupy his energy...Diane joined in and played with him too. His age was way more suited to puppy kindergarten, but Diane felt his focus MIGHT be ready for beginner's class....so we started him in the next beginner's class a few weeks later. I was SO looking forward to the class starting because I was running out of ideas for "new" things to learn that he could understand. Class time was fun !! I could say the words "school, class or homework" and the dance steps our little guy did would have made the entire cast of Flash Dance envious !! Diane made it fun and interesting to learn, both for our little fella and for my husband & I. She explained "the why's" behind her training methods and how reaching into the world of "dog language" opens new depth of understanding between you and your canine family member.
