Great dogs don’t just happen! When you see a dog that is playful and exuberant, but attentive and responsive at the same time, we know the owner has spent a great deal of quality time with that animal. Training is necessary to teach our dogs the social skills he will require to adapt to our world and our rules. That being said, there is no reason why training couldn’t be fun for everyone! Gone are the days of boring heeling drills and endless corrections! Countless trainers have discarded the traditional training that dominated the training field and have finally moved forward to a natural positive approach that is fun and easy.
There is nothing more rewarding than seeing how positive reinforcement opens the door to your dogs mind. It gives you and your dog the keys to understanding each other. By receiving the particular reward that motivates desired behaviors, watch as your dog learns how to choose to do the right thing, rather than just how to avoid doing the wrong thing. Watch as he learns how to think. Training creates a relationship based on trust and understanding. You will be thrilled and amazed by your dog’s unlimited learning potential and positive attitude. If you are interested in the precision of the obedience ring, high-speed agility, or the fun and new field of freestyle dance competitions, both of you will have loads of fun in the process!
