Originally Posted By u k fan Thanks, I just had a look at the site and it seems quite interesting. The problem we would have at the moment is that they won't consider anyone for a dog who is going through a treatment change and Sis's medication change won't end fully until May and then if that doesn't work it's on to the next thing. We'll have to wait and see!!!

This is the international group that awards oversees what the training groups are doing. The director of CPL is on the board of directors of the international group, so if you're interested in knowing more about which groups are good, let me know and I'll ask her for some names. I'm glad your sis is doing better. And I hope that her current meds turn out to be the ones that work well! Here's the link to CPL: <a href="http://k94life.org" target="_blank">http://k94life.org</a>
