We contacted you about a year ago after we rescued a dog that had been shot and passed through a number of homes because he would run away anytime a gate or door was left open. I wanted to give you an update on him.

Dear Cindy,



About a year ago we rescued a beagle/lab that had been shot with a shotgun and rifle. "Freight Train" had been passed through a couple of homes because he would run away through an open door or gate. We contacted you online for advice for dealing with him. You instructed us to keep him on leash for a long period of time to build a good relationship with him around food. He stopped running away and built up enough trust that we allow him supervised yard time with us. Yesterday a stray hunting dog came into our neighbors yard and Freight Train took off running after him. I yelled for him and he stopped in pursuit and returned to me. Needless to say I was very proud of him and praised and treated him.



Thanks for your awesome videos and training products that we have watched and used with our dogs. And Cindy, I personally thank you so much for advice and giving my family the best dog in the world and allowing Freight Train to have a family that loves him and the life he deserves.
