"In my 20 years of experience in working with Middle school students it is hard to find a way to teach them leadership skills. Hank Hough and his dogs bridge that gap effortlessly. My students were laughing, cheering and loving every minute of Hank’s presentation. His bond with the dogs shows students that leadership, dedication and commitment are traits that come with hard work. In 45 minutes, Hank was able to educate students about the power of obedience and how they can use obedience to make a difference in their lives!

"It takes something or someone special to hold the attention of Middle school students. Hank and his dogs are spellbinding. The kids are so enthralled with the dogs and their abilities that they become a captivated audience for Hank and his message. Helping Middle school students understand the importance of leadership, dedication and commitment is not an easy task. Hank’s unique message blends humor with reality that really hits home with Middle school students!"

Hank and his dogs have a compelling talk that is secular in order to comply with public school requirements and is geared towards Elementary, Middle or High School students. The dogs illustrate the power of obedience in a way that students never would expect. Hank and the dogs capture their attention while showing the great paradox that obedience actually brings about great freedom in the life of all who pursue it.
