Victoria Stilwell!

Written by Rachel Phelps

Ok, I admit I have a dog crush on one of the best dog trainers of all times Victoria Stilwell! When I heard she would be at Barkworld I was so excited. She is on the show “Its Me or the Dog” on Animal Planet. On her show she visits pet parent’s homes who have let us doggies get out of control and with some training for the dogs AND the humans she restores order. She gave a great presentation and afterwards she signed her book. I of course asked her to sign it to Preston and she put in it “You are gorgeous!” I melted on the spot! When we got up there mom got so tongue tied that she rambled on but she did manage to give her one of my blog post card. So I am hoping (paws crossed) that she becomes a fan/follower. But I understand if she doesn’t. She is one very busy person! We made a video with some excerpts of her presentation where she talks about why dominance training is so bad and I threw in some photos of me with her too . Check it out!
