| MACH Katie |
|
My miniature poodle, Katie, and I earned our MACH on July 8, 2006. It took us 4 years to accomplish this. Katie is my first agility dog and my poor handling caused 99% of our errors. My awesome girl loves the sport and always does what she thinks I want her to do. A friend recommended Stacy to me and I started with her in September of 2005. At that time, we had 11 double Qs. The last 9 came from Thanksgiving weekend, 2005, to July 8, 2006. During that time our showing was limited and I was out of commission for about 6 weeks due to back issues. There is absolutely no question in my mind that my work with Stacy made the difference for us. Would we have our MACH now if I hadn't started training with her? I doubt it. - Barb and MACH Katie

| MACH 2 AMPS |
|
Stacy Winkler and Pawsitive Action Training has made such a difference, not only with my handling, but with my confidence. Amps is always willing to work but I was unable to communicate clearly what I wanted him to do. Stacy helped me show Amps in a clear, positive way, what I needed him to do. Her instruction has enabled me to obtain not only a MACH 1 but also a MACH 2. We are still a work in progress but Stacy is always positive and patient.
Stacy always knows what is needed to get the very best out of her students and their dogs.
Thank you Stacy Linda Harper, MACH 2 Amps and MACH 10 Niki

Brady and I are in Stacy’s Foundation class. We travel about an hour each way for class because I know what an excellent trainer Stacy is, not just for agility, but also in building skills that translate into any sport or skill and even enhance our bond. As a novice handler, she has made me aware of so many things I never thought of before, like how my attitude and drive translate to my dog’s performance. And best of all, she gets the dogs to think and understand what they are doing, so they don’t just focus on the cookie or the toy, but on what they are doing. It’s amazing! I was in another class before I learned about Stacy and while my dog was excited and fast, he wasn’t thinking about what he was doing. The result: he was scattered and uncontrolled. I feel so fortunate to have Stacy here in San Diego and I know from traveling that she’s well-respected throughout the state. - Sally Romoser and Brady

I just wanted to say a big “Thank You” for all your help with my dogs. They both did awesome this weekend. Scrappy’s weaves were incredible! He had an absolute horrid entrance into the weaves. He was way out ahead of me, I said ”weave” and he did just that, he found the entrance and fought to stay in. On top of that he had GREAT speed in the poles. Scrappy is also understanding the one-jump work and I am really starting to see the difference. I am so proud of my boy! Lily did a great job too! Her weaves have more speed and she is becoming much more consistent with them too. She is fine with going out and working without me now. No more velco dog!! It really makes it a lot easier to handle her. The other awesome thing is the speed and drive that she has while out on a course. The biggest news was Lily was High In Trial on Sunday and she is only 10 points away from her UACH!!! Thank you so much Stacy! It really means a lot to me that my dogs and I are making major improvements! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! - Christine, Scrappy and lil’ Lily
