As Willy mentioned, I did Recallers 3 with my then GS Puppy. I hadn't trained dogs since my early years of choke collars and corrections. I was curious to learn about R+ training. I LOVED being part of Recallers and a whole new world of training - what I got out of the course was an incredibly motivated dog who had an amazing recall and who wanted to work and play with me - I felt the course really helped with forming a strong positive bond with him and the community of people with their knowledge was huge. The only turnoff for me was the marketing - she's brilliant at it but reminds me too much of the Pat Parelli horse marketing machine. I've signed up for the Recallers 4 and very much looking forward to it with my new 10 week old puppy (sadly lost my GS that I started the course with). Lots of information and daily games to play - highly recommend it.

Awesome . . . thank you!

Funny you should mention Pat Parelli. I attended a Parelli event years ago and remember thinking he had one heck of a marketing team. Wow.

I plan to join this time around if the cost isn't too prohibitive.

The first free webinar that talks about her philosophy around training is out. Boy, you guys were right, she is a GREAT salesperson. This sounds just like one of my business school HR courses, except we're managing dogs.

She was a pharmaceutical salesman prior to being a pro dog trainer. And to my knowledge, she was very good at it. She talks about her success (not bragging, just talks about it) in her book Shaping Success.

First webinar is here: Get your dog to do exactly what you want!

All I'm gonna say is prepare yourself. Her stuff is NEVER cheap. On the flip side, her online classes a FAR more comprehensive than most any in-person seminar you'd attend. The cost will be about the same, no doubt.

I'm intrigued- is it worth the $$? How does this compare to, say Michael Ellis?

I say decide for yourself. People like it enough to make videos showing what they got out of the course. There were 260 videos made for this round of Recallers. Watch a few of them and see what you think...

How does registration typically work? Does she just send an email to people on the email list to say...open for registration? Or is there a hidden website I haven't found yet?

I really want to take the course. Puppy and I feel a lot more engaged these days.
