I am sooooo “muchly” enjoying these courses. I did the responsibility lesson with my cat, Magic, and uncovered an amazing bond. Turns out we both have abandonment issues. I have felt a very special bonding with him ever since. I have been practicing the Present Moment with my animals, and I am finding that
I am experiencing at least as much peace as my animals. The Trust Technique fits nicely with me as I have been a meditator for many years.

The Trust Technique has definitely been the best thing I have ever done for my horse Edward Bear. The best money I have ever spent.
Edward Bear is my 17’2 Hanoverian gelding. He was very aggressive in his stall. He would kick, buck, bare his teeth and bite. Obviously everyone considered him very dangerous. He had bit me on several occasions. I was at my wits end.
I purchased the Trust Technique and started working with him on Jan 27th. The transformation with Edward Bear has been unbelievable. I worked with him very slowly and followed that exact advice of Shelly and James. Another outstanding part of this course was when I reached out for some help , Shelly emailed me back within 24 hours. Very impressive in this day and age. Shelly was extremely knowledgeable and gave me very specific details on how to work with him.
Edward Bear has literally been transformed. Even the staff at the stable have said in awe, “What have you done to him?” I am now able to tack him up in his stall with no aggressive reactions. Edward Bear is a show jumper and was very reluctant to work. Now he seems very eager to please me. He even comes to the door ready to put his halter on. I did not think this would ever be possible.
Shelly and James, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for bringing your Trust Technique to the world.
Sincerely Carolyn Klause and Edward Bear:)

I first came across the trust technique years ago when I rescued two horses who needed something other than the usual ‘do as I say or else’ routine. All of the horsey people around me were insisting that I just needed to be firm, keep tension on the reigns, let them know who was boss. But, being as strong willed as my horses, I decided to try something new and luckily came across the trust technique which was everything I needed to build trust and have a wonderful, mutually pleasing relationship with my horses. They became partners and forget tension on the reigns, we had such a great bond, I only had to think about what I wanted and could easily reassure them if they were worried about something.
Since then the trust technique has helped me rehabilitate 100’s of dogs and cats as well as easily help wildlife and the odd random addition to the family like goats and pigs. It’s a universal language which seems to get us on the same wave-length.
From the wilful to the fearful, the trust technique allowed me to be both gentle whilst exuding a calm confidence which inspired the animals to follow me, to guide them, dare I say – lead them!
I would 100% recommend the trust technique to animal professionals (I personally know groomers, trainers, veterinarians and animal shelter volunteers who use the trust technique with great success), any pet owner, people who love to interact with nature, farmers and even people who suffer from anxiety because it is amazingly beneficial for people as well.
A huge thank you to James and Shelley for creating these courses and doing their bit to be the change the world needs to see.

Lovely messages delivered in an authentic, gentle way. James has so much knowledge and wisdom to share. I an signing up for all of the courses!

I love it????. It so makes sense. I have already noticed that my dogs are calmer and me too.
We still have a long way to go but now I’m hopeful. I can’t thank you enough.

Your clear points on how to approach the course were very much appreciated. I originally decided to do the course as I’ll be volunteering at a rescue centre, but after your direction to only use this for our own animals, I will now wait till a rescue animal joins my household. So thank you once again for saving the creation of a problem for whoever adopts from the rescue centre.
Kind regards, Lyn
