Let me teach you how to have the best behaved dog possible!!
The majority of dog trainers use outdated methods relying on intimidation, force and conditional rewards.
Scientific research has now proved that the traditional dog training, obedience based, methods are less effective than methods involving consistent fair guidance, meeting all the dog’s needs and the provision of choice.
Dogs’ cognition, emotions and ability to learn is not dissimilar to that of a 3yr old child. Science has shown us that if we teach dogs in the same way as we teach children the dogs make faster and more successful progress than when we use the traditional methods involving force, bribery and coercion.
This, in turn, leads to dogs being confident, educated and able to control their behavior by themselves rather than being trained to obey commands.
My approach is based on teaching pet parents how to build a solid bond with their dog based on trust - forging a deep relationship with these wonderful animals. Following this protocol results in dogs who are happier, more confident and safer to be around.
