This skilled trainer stands next to the ferocious beast that tried to attack me during this shoot.

This vicious animal was coming at me with everything it had. Even after she roped it - the terrifying monster continued repeating its attack yelps in rapid succession - showing it had no intentions of relenting. Suddenly this brave woman yelled 'heel!' at the blood-thirsty creature. It immediately became quiet and assumed the position you see here. My, she was masterful. She had saved this photographer's life. I am so impressed by the skills she possesses.
