Now 75 lbs. I am grateful for Mike and BADT. His insight and precision are examples of a skilled educator. The lessons we are given are well planned, followed with reinforcement and encouragement from Mike and Emily. It is apparent that Mike has a deep understanding love of dogs with sensitivity for the success of their "people". We have been rewarded with fulfillment and a special bond.
