Lily says "I strive to continuously educate myself in the most up-to-date scientific research. It is still surprising how many trainers are working using old and detrimental methods. It soon shows that where knowledge ends, violence begins. I gained a first class degree in Animal Behaviour and shortly after began working as the Dog Trainer and Behaviour Coordinator, at the National Animal Welfare Trust. I am a full member of the APDT, ABTC and provisional APBC. I have a soft spot for rescue dogs and strive for that light bulb moment when the dog realises what it needs to do. Anyone who says they have a ‘perfect’ dog is fibbing and it is unacceptable and delusional to portray that dogs have to be perfectly behaved and bomb-proof. They are thinking, feeling creatures with a mind of their own. We can only guide them as best as we can with our current level of knowledge. I run Suppawt, a bespoke, understanding and tailored training service. We specialise in Rescue dogs and those with reactivity. www.suppawt.com"
Dr Ian Dunbar says that: "This book should be mandatory reading. When people leave a rescue, they should have a new dog and this book!"

Rain Rescue (www.rainrescue.co.uk) from Yorkshire say:
"We include a copy of Lily Clark's book in each of our dog adoption packs. It's the perfect resource for adopters to use when settling in their new rescue dog. It's easy to read, jargon free and covers a wide range of topics. We've used it also in our post adoption support referring people the relevant pages and subjects. It's been a big hit with our adopters who have been grateful for having the information to hand - a recent survey showed that all our adopters who received a copy of the book had either read all of it or at least referred to part of it. It also stops them searching online and finding inaccurate or unethical training advice."
