What We Will Do

+ Use leading techniques backed by Applied Behavior Science

+ Create happy, enthusiastic, “what can I do for you” dogs

+ Establish a mutually respectable relationship with your dog

What We Won’t Do

+ Use intimidation, fear, or pain to get your dog to do (or not do) something

+ Rely on debunked, disproven theories

+ Turn your dog into a robot without joy, excitement, or a personality

Why

+ Dogs trained with only Positive Reinforcement have the highest level of obedience; Dogs trained only with aversive methods have the lowest; dogs trained with a balanced approach fall somewhere in the middle

+ Aversive methods carry a well-documented risk of creating fears, phobias, avoidance behaviors, and/or aggression
