How would I help you train new things?
We use positive reinforcement to train new behavior's. That means we reward (with something the dog likes) desirable behavior's. This helps you build a fantastic relationship with your dog, and work fast towards your end goal.
​
What would I do if things go wrong?
Firstly we would use management tools (such as a lead and harness, longline, station, crate, puppy pen) to prevent your dogs undesirable behavior's from happening. Then we would reapproach the plan on how to teach the desirable behavior making sure you understand the plan, and feel confident carrying this out, to ensure success.
