I purchased the Furever discount at $97 and unfortunately I mistakenly ordered two discounts. I messaged to have this error corrected and the issue was graciously taken care of and a refund was given.
I very, much appreciated the care and promptness given to this issue.
With gratitude,

Wow, I did the free webinar. Used the techniques talked about. I’m blown away by how quickly this has worked. Now my dog looks at me before she barks. Far out. This is magic.
The webinar is so good, I’m not sure I need the actual course.
Thank you. 🙏🏻

Can I just say because of Dan my little rescue whippet has improved enormously. I never thought he would as he is totally terrified of ALL dogs. But now we can be in a fairly near space without the teeth and trousers that we use to have. He still shakes but we can now go out without people swearing at us. So a big thank you Dan x
Ps. I'm his third owner and have found out he will be 15years old at the end of March. He was also the bait to train an attack dog.

Having fostered two reactive German Shepherds and now continuing to build a trusting relationship with my new Shih Tzu, Pablo, I know first hand that Dan’s rules work!

This is a no BS, and very achievable approach to restablishing your relationships with your dogs.
I sat there listening to the lessons saying to myself "this makes sense".
It's been a learning curve but so worth it.

Absolutely works and makes total sense. My dog was a nightmare. This changed our lives completely

I’ve been working with dogs in the mountains of Utah hiking groups of 7-12 dogs at a time off leash for nearly 10 years. I invested in dans DTA course and not looked back. No buyers remorse at all ! Such a great investment, not only that he is a great kindred person. If your looking for training for your personal dog or to up your training skills and education you won’t be disappointed! His non verbal method of communication based in dog psychology is above the moon effective. It’s improved my relationship with my dog as well as all the dogs I work with on a weekly basis , and also my training clients and their dogs.

Thank You Dan!
I have been training dogs using Dan's method for 3 years now. The results are amazing! To be able to help owners and their dogs live together in harmony rather than strife is the best feeling in the world.
I've helped so many owners who had given up and were ready to rehome, send their dogs to shelters or even euthanize them due to their bad behaviors.
This method has turned things around and given them new hope and as they say, "New Dogs"!
I only wish every dog owner knew these simple things that make such a difference in building relationships with their dogs.

Dan Abdelnoor has hundreds of unedited videos on his courses which show the method works and works quickly if you are consistent - his own dogs were and are the best behaved dogs I have ever seen but were also totally happy and could have the freedom to be dogs. I have my own dogs and foster rescue dogs and have little time BUT I follow the 5 rules with all of them and it results in the dogs being in a state of mind where they can learn and grow and be happy and safe. It quickly helps the hugely anxious dogs from the pound to calm down and start enjoying life and helps them to find a permanent home. The 5 rules make so much sense and are easy to implement. The dogs love it and enjoy being calmer - I have seen many "sighs of relief" as the dogs realise how much better life is when they have quieter minds, the dog gets MORE freedom and love because of the rules - they become calm enough to take anywhere and accept love and play calmly rather than spoiling their own fun by not recalling or being too much for some people or other dogs or even acting dangerously. The rules just make life happier and calmer for dog and human. The 5 rules are the foundation for everything and do not involve spending hours doing repetitive sessions. It's just a way of life - actually pretty easy. Believe me I tried every other method out there and spent thousands of £ on behaviourists and courses before finding the Online Dog Trainer and if I hadn't found Dan I am pretty sure my heart dog Ellie would still be super reactive and we would still be struggling. It has been life changing for me and I have used the 5 Golden Rules with dogs since I discovered them 7 years ago. I rarely leave reviews but for the sake of all long-suffering dogs and humans I will on this occasion.

I sat through the 1-hour webinar. Did it take him a while to get to the point? Yes. But once it did, it made TOTAL sense. I am going to buy the program. It's only $97 with a 30-day money-back guarantee. There is nothing to lose and I have already gained insight on how to hone in on my dog's training to make it spot on.

I booked to watch a free webinar on Stop Dog Reactivity WITHOUT Food Bribes, Tricks, or Force. Half an hour in and Dan hadn't shared any new techniques or practical advice. In fact I found it all a little bit patronising, just stories and analogies, and obvious stuff about difficult dogs. As an owner of several challenging dogs, and someone who has tried different trainers and methods, I really thought I might learn at least one thing that I could take away. But I was bored and really couldn't bear to hear another story. I was there to learn - that's half an hour of my life I won't get back. I know the webinar would have lead to him pitching a course or membership to his site, which I wouldn't have been open to, but I didn't connect to his style, so will look elsewhere. Also I dislike being made to think that it's a live webinar. He was getting messages from people all over the world in the chat, and I just had three ladies from UK. I didn't see the chat that apparently he was reading from

I first bought an online book "what the dogs taught me about being a parent" about 5 years ago and loved Doggy Dans way of explaining how a dog thinks and interprets and recommend to all my friends
It was also not even expensive.
Recently i bought the online training "The dog calming code"again not expensive. Thoroughly worth around £30 I think. There is an app you can download and easy to follow steps. However the app videos kept freezing which will be fixed soon so I watched it all through a browser log in.
I look forward to learning more from Doggy Dan and how to be the pack leader
