1 out of 5 stars Awful and cruel training methods   December 26, 2006
AT (Atlanta, GA)
Please do not support the cruel and outdated methods of training used in this video and by the her training center in Atlanta. I spent a few weeks there and was appalled by the abuse under the guise of "training". Her solution for barking dogs is to muzzle them! Dogs have to pant to control their temperature! She has no business training people to train dogs!

This video is awful. Why would anyone choke their dog like the sadist pretending to be a dog trainer in this video?
I understood a little better reading the more realistic reviews - apparently, the video trainer is a fraud, which would sure explain the cruel punishments that she puts animals through. I shudder to think that people pay her in real life to train a dog - they must be crazy!

Cruel, outdated training methods used by a no talent dog trainer ( sorry, ask around in the Greater Atlanta Area if anyone has heard of this woman as a trainer, they just laugh and use the word "self-promoting" alot )
Bad advice given in a cheesy, poorly shot tape that fails to explain vital training concepts - this tape would not be worth viewing, even if it was free. Sad for the poor suckers that actually bought this piece of junk tape.

I notice that the people that are happy with the tape are all glad that they can sit while training. Maybe they need to consider getting a cat instead.


1 out of 5 stars A complete waste of money!   April 12, 2003

This isn't a training tape, it's a pitch to get you to buy things from her website. The information appears to be ripped straight off an Animal Planet show. The tape quality is horrible and the editing was apparently done by a ten year old child.
This trainer says she's a top trainer? I searched goggle and AKC records and I can't find *one* mention of any of her "acheivements"- little wonder after seeing this feeble attempt at a training tape.
SAVE YOUR MONEY AND SKIP THIS ONE!!



5 out of 5 stars This video works great for people in wheelchairs!   September 20, 2000

My father has been in a wheelchair for over twelve years. After seeing a film on T.V. about goldens being great wheelchair companions, I decided to give my father a golden retreiver puppy for his 62nd birthday. My father named her puppy Mary. When I brought Mary home, my father and I quickly realized this puppy needed training. After purchasing several videos off of the internet, we realized that none of the videos had any information on wheelchair training. Finally I found a video called The Armchair Trainer on Amazon.com. To our surprise, The Armchair Trainer was the only video that offered wheelchair training. After purchasing the video, my father and I started Mary's training. We have been working with Mary for over four months and can see a great improvement in my father's ability to control Mary. My family and I highly recommend this training video regardless of whether there is a need for a wheelchair or not. It was definitly the most informative and helpful video that we bought.
