learning from your experience." Mandy.

handle dogs and found it worked 100%. As a result of this, I bought your book Living with an Alien, and find it excellent. I can
recommend your book to any animal lover and would like to thank you for your help. I thrust there will be more books written by you in
future." Secretary of the Bull Terrier Club.

who is 90!" Nellie.

"Living with an Alien saved the lives of 2 children on Sunday. They came into my yard to fetch their ball. My large male dogs had been going to
dog training, and were getting more and more vicious. They did not tolerate children. They were also very aggressive toward anyone who
came into their yard. The programme I learnt from your book was starting to work, and I was starting to get a measure of control over
my dogs. Then I happened to see the children jump off the wall, and after reading your book, told them to stand quietly with their
hands over their faces. The dogs left them immediately!
"Living with an Alien" is a LIFESAVER. I really cannot express myself strongly enough as to how important it is for dog owners to read this
book." Jeanne.
"We lent your book to friends whose dog was completely unmanageable and within days they found a remarkable transformation in their dog's
behaviour." Len.
