Questions owners ask

How do I get my guide?

Right after checkout, Payhip emails you a download link. It doesn't expire, and the PDF is yours to keep and reprint.

Can I print it at home?

Yes. Every guide is sized for US Letter paper, so it prints cleanly on a home printer.

Do you use punishment or corrections?

No. Every exercise is reward-based. You mark what your pet gets right, and ignore and redirect the rest.

What if a guide isn't right for my pet?

Every paid guide has a 30-day money-back guarantee. If it isn't right for you or your pet, email us and we'll refund you in full. No need to give a reason.

Is this a replacement for a vet or trainer?

No. Our guides are general help. For health worries, or behavior that scares you, talk to your vet or a certified trainer.
