The Dog Walker's Companion (DVD) prepares you...

1. For the client interview:
   Meeting prospective clients and their dogs for the first time is perhaps the most important part of gaining a new client! However, it's not as easy as you may think. The book gives you all the tools and information you'll need to succeed. The DVD takes that information and puts it into practice in a real-world simulation of what I do at client interviews. This 20 minute simulation will give you an excellent idea of what to expect and prepare for on your first interview!
   
   
2. For working with dogs:
   Learn tried and true training techniques that every dog walker should know! From the basics (sit, down, stay) to more advanced behavior modification techniques for dealing with leash pulling and jumping up on people. The techniques are non-coercive and dog friendly! Your clients will be thanking you for the pleasure of living with such a well-mannered dog.
