I decided to branch out my search to larger nearby cities (New Orleans, Baton Rouge) in hopes that someone can do in-home training for my 2 boys.  For months I've been searching Craigslist, classifieds, yellow pages, asking vets, calling groomers - and finally I found Ryan!  He's a behavior consultant/animal trainer and attended the School of Animal Sciences at LSU to earn his masters degree with an emphasis in animal behavior.  He promotes scientific, positive training methods and is a firm believer in promoting happy relationships with your pets.  
What a Godsend!!  We spoke for about 20 minutes on the phone last night.  He's excited to take a break away from his typical behavior issue clients and work with basic obedience for my little crazies.  He's working on a schedule for us and will get back to me shortly to let me know when we can begin.  I dream of the day that I can take my boys somewhere in public, or even on a leisurely walk.  We are so excited     |       He sounds wonderful and wish you happy training and keep us posted.
