There are good and bad out there and unfortunately the bad ones can do a lot of damage.

That is very true. If I was going to engage someone to lay their hands on one of my beloved dogs I would interrogate them on the telephone beforehand about their experience. They would need to be really impressive with a proven track record before they even got to walk through the front door. Nobody is cutting their teeth on my boys!

The retired dog handler, who has unfortunately attached an unpopular label to himself, certainly knows his stuff and gets really positive results. He also makes himself available for follow-up calls and visits at no extra charge, but it hasn't been necessary.
