From Marshall and Betty J.

Early in 2013 about Feb sometime, we bought rescued a baby pit-bull from a meth addict. Got her shots and got her healthy. And being a grown man raised with a couple of pits as a child, I knew we’d have to have proper training. Let’s face it, they have bad reputations with media and physically do have the ability to do great harm even when just playing. We looked for a few days and got lucky and found Barking Pals. He actually came to us, to our house to teach the dog in its own environment. Back yard, around the block, in a field, in the living room…is all class room. All real-world, practical reasons and lessons in simple “Follow My Lead” style. He presents his facts and his whys, how’s, does, and don’ts politely.

He presents his critiques and corrections with a non-judgmental, understanding and very caring manor. I believe he truly realizes that you must deal with people on an individual basis and the animal as well must be dealt with on an individual level. All animals are not the same and neither are humans and he forms his lessons according to that situation. He’s a brilliant young man and it is an honor to have learned from him and get to know him as our lessons progressed. Our pit is still less than a year old but has completed Jacque’s basic course and is by far better for it. I can assure you, if we had not found Jacque when we did, we’d probably have to have given our pit away. We needed the teachings he provided just as much as our dog did. Now we have the confidence and ability in knowing how to properly handle our massive 70+ lbs Blue Pit “Quebet”. Thank You Very Much – For your services and now friendship Jacque.
