Im sure you have entered a contest or giveaway at some time in your life and really wanted to win the top prize? I recently entered the LoneStar Dog Training Contest for the spouses of Fort Hood, Texas. I not only wanted to win this contest, I had to win in it in order for me to keep my safety, sanity, and help me in containing a peaceful environment in my home.

 

     When I entered the LoneStar Dog Training Contest I was eight months pregnant with twins, my husband was deployed to Afghanistan, and I had my hands full with our 100 lb. 2 year old female American Bulldog; Kahlu'a. Kahluas personality can only be defined by the words crazy and chaotic. Crazy while in the house, in the yard, on walks, at the vet, you name it I was embarrassed of my dog! We loved her dearly but her behavior of trying to attack other dogs, jumping on people, growling, stealing food, bolting out of every door, chewing and destroying things, digging holes, fence fighting, chasing animals, cars, bikes, skateboards, and cats, and she was also scared of wind, fast moving objects and truly crazier when it was dark.  Her behavior worsened after my husband deployed and as I grew larger with the twins.

 

      Before being pregnant our walk and runs were frustrating enough with her constant pulling on the leash, lunging at other animals to attack them while out walking, and just running away from me. The further along I got I realized that running with her was becoming a safety concern for me and for her. She would literally drag me to the ground and injure my body by charging off the second we stepped out the door. Honestly I was looking into getting rid of her to help make the house calmer and safer before the babies arrived.

 

      We were selected as the winner to receive a two week board and train program with LoneStar Dog Trainer with the support of Tritronics. Now after her training and having her home I can say I LOVE my dog. All of her previous problems were corrected. Not to mention they not only trained her, but me too to know what to say and do to make my dog successful.

 

 I am now able to actually leave the house with my dog without fear and am able to enjoy being a dog owner, not just a dog lover.  Earlier today I was able to push my double stroller with Kahlu'a walking next to me off her leash in our neighborhood. The hand held Tritronics remote collar is simple for me to use one handed. This comes in handy more than ever with two small babies.

 

      Thank you LoneStar Dog Trainer and Tritronics for selecting us. Our family appreciates how much you have blessed us. I cant wait for my husband to return home and see the major improvements you have helped make in our big dog but more importantly in our family
