I think by the time these people contact this guy, they are at wits end with their animals and in some cases, the animals will not be in the home much longer because of their behavior and these people fear that the dogs will bite someone, and the owners are not enjoying living with them. In some cases, the people have said that they have basically tried just about anything, some even mentioning that they have had 2 or even 4 previous trainers who could not help them.

I watched the show tonight and I really was amazed at how he got these truely aggressive mean dogs to change and he never hit them, but, yes, with some muscle, got them to go into submissive positions; to let them know that he was boss, just as the owner was going to have to do in order to train these dogs to not be dangerous.

I am not sure what other methods would work with these dogs - some of them seemed half crazy. I think we are very lucky that we have the dogs that we do; but imagine having one of those that practically snaps your spouses hand off when they just want to pet them.

Honestly, if I had a dog like the ones they showed on TV last night where
the dog destroyed the entire sofa and where the one was so aggressive that they were thinking of having him "put down", I would welcome this
guy helping me out.
