For the last 3 plus weeks Mélanie Tournier and her 7 year old Aussie Aygon have lived in my facility. Air mattress, no TV, small bathroom (no shower) and a small kitchen. She traveled from Montana nearly 30 hrs to shadow our day program, watch private lessons, work her dog, and even took a few bites from a K9 prospect. She accepted a 5 day boarding dog she poured her heart into, with reasonable expectations.
She attended the Larry Krohn seminar and helped w anything our team needed. She paid for all this out of pocket including time off work!
“Mel” spent time w my family traveling back and forth to shower, do some laundry, and enjoy a meal and was an absolute joy to be around! She also dealt w my s**t day in and day out! That’s a task in its self!
Her questions were genuine her desire to learn is real and she does it all because she knows dogs need more!
I’m going to miss her as she makes the long trip home, but I assure you she’ll be on the dog training map in the future!
Thanks “Mel” and Aygon safe travels and we promise to see you soon! ❤️
