Will this suit your dog?
Non-aversive methods of dog training are successfully used to train any breed or age of the dog.
Dog’s are very efficient with their energy. Positive reward training uses your dogs desire to achieve a goal to train the wanted behaviours.
Using techniques that help your dog to have self-confidence and impulse control in everyday life, you will learn to both understand and train your dog.
Dogs learn through association. In other words, all canine behaviour is cued by the environment. Past experiences will affect their current behaviour choices.
