It's PAWSible! Thank you!!! Oct 23, 2006
By Indigo's Mom I have three dogs, all of whom had previous obedience training; however, after time went on, we became lackadaisical about their behavior, such as barking at bikers, kids and other dogs, they also jumped on guests coming into our home. Soon, one of our dogs started to growl at kids. Obviously, this was unacceptable. I purchased Beth's DVD and re-trained all three dogs, bringing them back to the basics. This increased their confidence, especially the "growler." She was, I learned, a fear-aggressive dog and before this became a huge issue, we were able to nip it in the bud using Beth's positive training techniques. What a huge difference in our family dynamic now! Our dog/caregiver bond has grown immensely. I truly believe that our dogs wanted the boundaries back that we had previously dropped. I highly recommend the It's PAWSible! DVD for any dog of any age. We have one shelter dog age 10 and two others we obtained as puppies, they are now 7 and 8! So it's never too late for training. Lastly, I would like to toss in that I had already purchased another dog training DVD that was cheaper - and I got what I paid for - it was confusing and difficult to navigate. I finally gave up and bought this one.

Very well done Sep 23, 2006
By Joseph Borrego

As a University Professor, I appreciate very much the lecture style that Beth has in the video. She reviews what has been done, previews what is to be done in the current lesson, gives an example of the finished product, then demonstrates the techniques in detail, and reviews the points of the lesson.
Then the is a preview of what the next lesson will be. There no ambiguities.
I am a new dog owner and as such have much confusion. But with Beth's instruction there is little left to question.
As far as the material goes, I am no expert but the techniques are working on my two dogs.

good video, perhaps a bit overpriced Nov 18, 2008
By D. Hoffman Lots of great information, good video quality. However, I would not recommend it for the $40+ it is being sold for on this site. I found elsewhere for about half the price. After having watched some the cheaper training videos out there (rented from my local library!) I just can't say that this video offers all that more information to make it worth paying 3x their price...

Great Training Aid Jul 31, 2008
By CA Mom
"Ca Mom"
I have just added another member to our family (a new puppy) and since I have attended obedience classes before, I decided to do basic training on my own. This DVD is an excellent source for doing that. Beth explains everything very clearly and shows how to do it. The DVD format is much better for people who are visual learners rather than reading a book. I also like the format that she gives you several things to work on each week and you can skip to any lesson you want to review. It is good that she uses several dogs of various backgrounds as examples, not just a well trained dog, so you can see different types of reactions you may get. Great training aid for training your puppy or dog.

Excellent Basic Command Training Jul 16, 2009
By Valerie Mills It's Pawsible is an excellent, organized training course for basic commands. It walks you through a week-by-week schedule with training demonstrations of dogs who have not been previously trained. You need to listen to each segment several times because of the amount of information in them.
I used this course successfully with a 12-week old puppy. I continually reinforce these basic commands: Sit, Down, Stay, Leave It, and Come. There are others introduced in the DVD, but I stick with these few commands.
Note that this course does not address house training or behavior problems and was not designed to do so.
