Thank you, Cindy! I have been using the marker training at a rescue (they specialize in rehabbing feral dogs and giving them a chance--as well as unwanted horses, ponies, cats, sheep, pigs, and rabbits). So far the marker training has worked excellently for getting even the most fearful, shy dogs to finally make eye contact and getting them to move toward me! Thought you'd appreciate some good news!
