"I am going to Thank You (if that is even possible) as well as tell a story you already know, because you are the heroine and our Sasha is the star — and I want everyone coming to your website to know who and what they are looking into.  We (my family and I) went on a mission to find a great dog for us as well as a companion for our autistic son. We decided on a German Shepherd and bought a puppy. I thought I was prepared but after 8 weeks with her, I realized I was sinking, so I contacted what I thought was the most reputable trainer I could find and off Sasha goes to a very expensive "Puppy Bootcamp" and had 2 private lessons with this trainer.  After working her program to the letter, there was no difference in the dog.   I begin to think that it is the dog and that we have made a huge as well as pricey mistake.  I ran an ad in the newspaper to sell Sasha. I thought she needed a new home with someone who could handle her.  I went to our vet to see if they knew anyone who might want to buy Sasha.  They only had one place to call  and by the grace of God that was Alpha Obedience.   I contacted Stacey to see if she knew someone who may be interested in Sasha, and after many questions on her end, I reluctantly agreed to meet and let her help get things under control. After doing what she instructed me to do for only 2 days I saw a HUGE difference in Sasha; so much so that when the first person called from the ad in the paper, I told them she was no longer for sale!   I have a completely different relationship with Sasha now, and see her being with us forever. She went from a  puppy who would not listen, bite anyone who tried to pet her, pull on the leash, basically an unruly dog ... to a calm, listening puppy in no time; and we owe all that to you, Stacey.  You have made believers out of us and we could never repay you for the relationship you not only saved but helped create. To anyone on this website reading this you can and will not go wrong choosing Stacey Holman to work with you and your dog.   Thank You,“  - Irish Rink & Family (including Sasha)
