Training Philosophy
Choosing to bring a dog into your home, comes with the responsibility to care for that animal by providing food, shelter, love, and training. The training component provides
a bridge of communication that will help the dog learn to live in a human world and allows you to understand and appreciate your dog.
As a Certified Training Partner of the Karen Pryor Academy for Animal Training and Behavior, Amy teaches and trains using force-free principles and techniques. By seeking out and utilizing only positive, effective, dog-friendly methods she is able to help families and their pets succeed without adding aversive equipment or methods.
Positive training techniques:
-
Help you and your dog communicate and succeed together
-
Are based on behavioral science making training more efficient
-
Help you and your dog develop a bond of trust and respect
-
Will not harm your dog physically or emotionally
(no choke chains, prong collars, shock collars, etc.) -
And they are fun and easy!
So make training fun! Your dog will learn faster.
"Neither comprehension nor learning can take place in an atmosphere of anxiety."
