- What people say about ABN -
 


People are talking!

We are proud to share what people are saying about how AnimalBehavior.Net (ABN) memberships, on-line education, behavior services and Dr. Tripp's lectures are improving relationships between people and pets.

SUBJECT : Behavior Book
COMMENTS : I recently attended Dr. Tripp's seminar at the ISVMA in November, unfortunately, I could not purchase his book and was wondering if there was a way I could purchase the "Socialization and Behavior" book?  I found his lecture truely facinating and a real eye opener and would love to have one of his books.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Maybelle Barton

Hey Rolan,
 
I want to tell you how helpful your talk was to me. I was really struggling. We (at the clinic) started doing a few of your suggestions and believe me, it has turned the whole practice around. It's so much more fun now. Thank you. Hope you are well . 

Your pal,

It was evident to me while attending your lectures in Hershey that you possess a great enthusiasm and energy for your subject. Your communications skills are remarkable. I looked around as we came up on the end of each hour and noted that the audience was, as I was, still rapt in attention. No one was looking at their watch. I didn’t see anyone fall asleep (unheard of in an audience that size!) And I wonder if you noticed that at each succeeding lecture the size of the audience grew. The two technicians from our practice who were in attendance were also energized and shared my own very positive impressions.

Thanks Tara. Everything is going great. Clients value the enrollment of the ABN. They praise it all the time, especially on how they have no problems with it; easy to use and gives excellent information about their new pets or misbehaving pets. Thank you so much again for all your help. We really appreciate how you get back to us so quickly. Have a Good week. Talk to you soon
 


SUBJECT : Hershey behavior seminar

COMMENTS : I just wanted to thank you again for the behavior seminar in Hershey Pa this past weekend. I am a Veterinary Technician in Pa and wanted to say Dr Tripp has been the most enthusiastic speaker I have ever heard on behavior. I have already tried many techniques I learned at the seminar on our clients. It's just really nice to know there is still hope for behavior cases....And after your seminar I feel even more motivated to help her and everyone else that I can. I look forward to learning as much as I can and wanted to thank you again.

To: Rolan Tripp

Dear Dr. Tripp and Susan:
It was great to finally meet you and I just wanted to say again thanks for speaking at our meeting .Your topic and presence was well accepted.   heard nothing but excellent reviews on your presentation. People are asking for your back, so maybe we can talk some day about just having a behavior meeting for the Doctors and the staff a the same time. I think it might go over good. I know my two associates who were at the meeting are already putting your ideas to work and they were delighted when I told them I ordered the program.  Thanks again and we will keep in tough about future meetings.
Sincerely,
Dr. David Calderwood

Hi Tara,
 
Thanks for sorting that. I am enjoying the membership & finding the information very useful. I am taking the Principles of Canine Behaviour paper extramurally through Massey University here in New Zealand. I have done 2 reports & 1 essay so far, culminating in a 3 hour exam paper to sit in early November.
 
Regards,
Graeme Crump

Subject: Re: Animal Behavior Network / Returned Email
  
Tara,
Please keep me on your list.  I have been getting the emails, but there are
times when my mailbox gets too full.  I guess they must return the mail at
that time.  I read the emails faithfully since I am an obedience trainer and I
have found many helpful hints and techniques that had enhanced my training
skills and benefit my canine and human students.

Thank you,
Cindy Orlopp
 

From Trainer Evaluation to Mitzi Moser/Reggie (Beagle with Separation Anxiety) Dr. Tripp was Trainer on this case (May 2004) 

What did you like the most about the trainer?  He liked Reggie!  He showed tremendous compassion & understanding for our poor handling of Reggie in the past.  We’ve gotten a little sensitive to criticism about our love for Reggie. It’s very refreshing to have “Reggie friendly” help.  I wasn’t expressing myself correctly to Reggie – it wasn’t his fault.  Most people don’t like Reggie because of us. We have focus and a plan of action to make thinks better – We are very grateful!               
 

What did you like least about the trainer? Don and I don’t have anything but total gratitude for Dr. Tripp for coming out to support us and Reggie.  I can’t express how much difference it has made to us both to know that we have support out there, and that an expert thinks Reggie is a great dog too!  We just needed some help loving him like dogs need to be loved. It’s very different from children.  We think we understand the dog language a little better now and can make Reggie happy without making us crazy.  We love him and want him happy too. Dr. Tripp gave us that gift!

Subject: Re: re[2]: Positive Pet Parenting working!
  
I use the PetEthogram on a regular base for my one-on-one consultations, as long as people have email. The hassle is, that some people don't have computers or online access. Then I have to mail them one of my old behavior history forms, which is never as good as yours. And I have to write them a more detailed handout, because I can't just refer them to your topics. You can see I'm already addicted.  But I love everything else and will probably sign up another client soon.

That received your e-mails for the first six weeks after signing up, but then they abruptly stopped.  She found them very helpful, and was wondering if there was a problem. Could you let me know what is going on?  Thanks!

...Dr. Rolan Tripp was recommended to me by my veterinarian. My dog had a fear-aggression problem. I have worked with Dr. Tripp for about 2 months via telephone and e-mail.  While not all problems have been solved to this date, my dog has become more obedient on the lead and has stopped barking at cars and trucks.  Dr. Tripp's advice, I believe, has been the reason for this improvement...

...Animal Behavior Network focused on training me so that I could train Amanda. Terriers are a wonderful breed, but very headstrong. We wanted Amanda to be fun to be around but under control when needed and at the same time not lose any of her wonderful personality. We now have a very happy, confident dog...I feel confident that I will be able to handle any situation that may arise, thanks to your training.

...I'm still working on Andy to become the "Ideal Dog.  I am so proud of how he behaves socially.  I know that your puppy kindergarten has made the difference.  All the kids in the neighborhood enjoy him as much as he enjoys them.

...I am so grateful to you, Dr. Tripp and Claudia for all your work with me and Aggy.  I rather expect if we had not taken this path, Aggy would have been put down because of her aggression.  You have taught me I will always have to be vigilant with her around others, but I think I can now open her world a little wider for both of us to enjoy.  Thank you again.
