"I would like to thank IABTC staff and Angela White. I attended the canine behaviour courses and many others over two years. After attending and learning so much I have changed my view on behaviour, how the dogs brain works, evolution, training, how dogs learn, clicker work, and much more. The knowledge gained from all the staff, has changed my life for the better and most importantly, the new understanding of my best mate Merlin my dog, (and of course other dogs). I can now see the body language and behaviour that other owners miss. I am now a search dog handler and search dog team leader after being inspired by doing a dog sports taster week all thanks to IABTC and their great staff. THANK YOU VERY MUCH". Dave Turner “I would just like to say that I really enjoyed the course. I found it very informative and interesting. I really enjoyed working with all the children and think this gave me the confidence to get up in front of your class on Thursday evening.” Janet “Many congratulations on a fantastic, informative but fun course. Such a lot of thinking for me to do over four days but I have come away feeling very motivated". Corinna "Thank you for a fantastic four days training and it has given me a great insight of improving my skills in teaching pet dog owners". Dawn "I thoroughly enjoyed myself on the course. It was lovely to meet both you and Jane and I have learnt a lot from you both. I look forward to coming on another course". Angie "I really enjoyed the course it was brilliant to learn so much. The road to being a very good instructor is long and I'm just at the beginning!!! However, it's great to know what I need to work on. It was great meeting you and Jane, you were both inspirational and your course really was excellent. Best wishes". Kat “Many thanks for the very thorough, constructive and helpful feedback from the course. It was an excellent week I really enjoyed the sessions and felt they gave me more confidence, knowledge and enthusiasm to continue developing dog training skills. Many thanks to both you and to Jane for the time and energy you spent in making it worthwhile and enjoyable for us all!” Marjorie "Whether you are an experienced instructor or new to instructing the instructor's course is invaluable – Angela’s wealth of knowledge and experience has enabled me to take my dog training/instructing to a new level.
