"When I first met John, I asked him what he dreamed to do with his life and he answered without blinking an eye that He dreamed to be one of the best dog handlers the Champlain Valley could find.

Since then, I've come to know John well since acquiring my Dachshund puppy. He has been a worthy and reliable guide for me and my dog Mousse.

John has leash trained both me and my dog successfully. Challenges continue to arise in the conditioning process due to dynamic environments; and having John available to discuss them helps me to problem solve new situations as they arise.

Lastly, I entrust my dwelling to John with a key to enter my home to take care of my dog when I am away. John is one of the most trustworthy people I know.

Yours truly,
