The owner says: Reese has never been great about having his ears touched, which I realized is a whole in his training I should have addressed a long time ago.

It was a situation that had gotten out of hand, but I just couldn't conquer it completely after months of trying. Then someone suggested to me to try Clicker Training. The results were amazing.
