Daniel profoundly changed how I communicate with Genie. From the first few lessons, Genie responded to me quicker than before. Daniel made me grasp that unless I spend quality time with her everyday, the training I did with Genie wouldn’t stick.
Daniel basically changed my relationship with her by emphasising how crurcial it is to ‘be’ with her: playing, walking in the woods, and keeping each other in good company.
