Obedience Training

Obedience Training

My puppy education classes are not puppy kindergarden. It is my intention that you finish the ten week class with an established relationship that will get you through any and all challeneges. I offer an adult class that can be taken any time after 8 months of age that will solidify and correct any adult dog challenges that may arise. ( I do recommend continued education during the lifetime of your dog that includes agility, tracking, tricks etc. )

In my opinion, obedience work for your dog is an essential part of building a healthy working relationship. Specialized methods are crucial in having a healthy and happy dog

It is very easy to traumatize our pets with what we believe are effective training methods. The last thing you want is to allow your dog/s to rule the house or to create an agressive or fearful pet, and you certainly do not want to experience handling your pet in a manner that accidentaly breaks their heart and spirit. That look in their eyes will remain with you forever.

I will share over 25 techniques with you that are effective, make sense, and are fun for both you and your dog. These lessons may one day save your pet's life, change the way you view each other and take struggle out of your relationship. After all, it is a 10 - 15 year realtionship. Allow me to help make this a pleasant experience for you both.

IN MY CLASSES WE WILL COVER:
new pup info - holistic, spiritual and practical
bite inhibition
basic manners
socialization - people and dogs
house training
destructive chewing
come, sit, stay, down, stop and off
door etiquette
walking on and off leash
dogs, children and new baby
digging
excessive barking
home alone
fighting
hyper dog
manners with household pets

All of these challenges will be taught in a fun upbeat manner that will include games and positive reinforcement.

Please feel free to invite your family to the classes as your pet is a part of the family and it is important to all work together.

In my classes I share methods with owners on how to focus in on their dog and form a connection before beginning training. I use techniques that I have learned over the years from courses I have taken with some amazing teachers. I feel that these techniques may be the missing links in pet training and ownership.

Due to the fact that I am extremely aware of animals feelings and emotions, I have been studying many forms of training.

Positive reinforcement training is what I believe in and practice.

There are only a few positive reinforcement trainers available, and I have spoken with many people who have told me of the rough training methods they have experienced with others and how still to this day they feel guilt for having to rely on these methods.

We all learn in our perfect time and space.

Perhaps one day we will all train our dogs with positive reinforcement measures. We only want the best for our best friends.
