By focusing  on the hard cases that everyone gave up on, by speaking the same language we do what everyone said can't be done, that your pet can't be fixed or made to have a happy dog life. Our numbers speak for themselves. By analyzing the body language,  surroundings and going one on one with all parties we reteach behaviors made for long term success.
