"I highly recommend the Downriver All Breed Herding videos, both to novice handlers and also to more experienced handlers who cannot work with a trainer as regularly as they would like. With the wide variety of drills shown, there are at least a few drills at each skill level that will click with every herding team out there, no matter what level of experience." -Cathy Kudryk

"there is so much information in this video you will have to go through it a few times to take it all in. It is like having a two month clinic in your own home. There are so many tricks and tips, many examples of drills with so many breeds that you are bound to learn something or find something on it that will help make you a better trainer." - Nancy Ireland
In this dog training DVD we use both trained and untrained dogs. By including both you will see the common mistakes new handlers make, solutions for these mistakes and the correct way to train.
