I have emailed my qualifications to Audrey so if you are interested in knowing about them I'm sure she will pass them on.

There are many ways of dog training and I have used many of them.

I'm very sorry that Audrey got so upset. Nothing written was meant as an attack on her.

I went out of my way to show that I understood what she meant as a "swat" and at no time thought she was abusing her dog. I certainly did not accuse her of it.

I hope that clears things up - this is very unlike other boards you may have seen. We do not attack each other and are never rude or impolite to each other. It is great fun and very, very friendly. I hope you and Audrey enjoy it as much as we do.
