On the April, 2008, dog camp in Wimberly

Every day is a party for my boykin spaniel, Josie. She has an exuberant, sunny disposition. The best I can do to repay her gift of happiness to me and my family is to make the extra effort to entertain her. She agreed that we would attend your dog camp.

Lee, your camp was just an over the top great experience for us both!!!! We were pampered and there were so many events to choose from. We really enjoyed the other campers (both dogs and owners). Your staff and teachers were outstanding. There was delicious food and a beautiful location by the river, too.

It occurs to me that there could have been total chaos and bedlam with some sixty dogs and way over 100 owners. But, instead, it was like a big peaceable kingdom, with owners and dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments, having a grand time. All because of your good leadership, Lee. Very well done! Thank you.

On teaching dogs independence w/ Shari:

I was absolutely FLOORED last night when we went to sleep. Sadie got in the bed that is not in the crate and Hector ACTUALLY WALKED IN THE CRATE on his own, layed down and slept in there the whole night - no whining!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shari, I almost started crying I was so happy! I know I can't get *too* excited yet but I thought that was HUGE! THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU! whatever y'all did out there yesterday worked 10-fold! ~ Tanis

A "Berry" nice tale...

Four years ago I started training my dog, Berry, in agility.  He was terrified of the dog walk, so after six months of traditional classes I took him to a well-known training facility for private lessons.  After several months, the trainer told me that Berry would never learn the dog walk unless we used a shock collar.  I would not put a shock collar on my dog, so I just gave up on the agility for 3 years.

Then I met Lee Mannix!  Lee took one look at Berry and said "you have a good agility dog already."  He also said that he could teach the dog walk in one session.  I had major doubts, but figured what have I got to lose?  In a 10 minute session, the dog I had given up on long ago was trotting over the dog walk as sweet as you please! 

Lee has an exceptional perception of each individual dog's personality.  He saw that Berry had a good relationship with me and he built on that to overcome his fear of the obstacle in front of him.

I would certainly recommend LMCCB to other people who have given up on their dogs…even if your dog has failed with other trainers! Thanks for showing me the dog I did not know I had!

"It's all in the Training"

At 14 weeks of age, Chase began showing signs of aggression.  Chase could not be in sight of another dog without explosive behavior...for me, this ruled out agility, herding or any other fun activity I wanted to do with my dog.

Last summer, I was referred to LMCCB.  I met with Lee and Kimberly for an evaluation and instantly knew that I had found the right place.  After 3 private lessons with Kimberly, Chase was a different dog!  Kimberly taught me a new and wonderful way of training through positive reinforcement.  I learned how to correct undesirable behavior with only two words, "Too Bad".  She taught me how to keep my dog's attention and for him to trust me.  It wasn't long until we found ourselves in a group class...off leash!  Wow!  We are now in our fourth class at LMCCB, Advanced Agility.

Chase recently earned his Canine Good Citizen Award and it's all thanks to Kimberly, Lee and Shari.  Thank you for all of your patience, support and encouragement.  I have a dog that I can enjoy now and love the things we can now do together!
