Sorry, been out for a while...the reason I advocate AGAINST Freddy is his stuff is incomplete. There is NO comparison in his program and either of the big 2, smartwork and trt. And lastly, Why in earth would anyone follow a program from a fella that sends his dogs to another trainer to be trained. You say my comment lacked class? And that I'm childish? Why? I didn't call him out. I said please don't use his videos as the "program" to train your dog. But since your so intent on painting me the villain, go fix a dozen or so dogs trained using Freddys you tube crap and you'll have a better understanding why most professionals suggest Graham or Lardy. And before you ask, yes, I have. I'll leave you with this Matt, from UGA...
"If you think hiring a good dog trainer is expensive, try hiring a bad one first." The same can be said for programs.
Some solid points in there. I would just expect to back up a strong statement against someone who does what you do. I do like some of his advice. Aside from Freddy I'm still not sure why incorporating mutliple programs is so bad but I don't have the experience to say otherwise. I will say Freddy exxeggerates the distance of a retrieve like no other and "I can guarantee you boys that!"
