Our Training Philosophy
We use positive reinforcement techniques grounded in canine behavioral science. Using treats, toys, praise, play, and life rewards (being allowed on the couch, getting the leash clipped on, etc.), we tap into what naturally motivates dogs to get the behaviors we like. Your dog gets all the things he likes and you get an exquisitely behaved dog—without intimidation, force, or punishment.
