Philosophy
My dog training philosophy centers on effective communication and building a strong bond with your dog. I teach owners to use body language to communicate, as dogs naturally want to please us. It's crucial to reward them at the right moment to avoid confusion and chaos at home. By on timing and clear communication, we can foster a harmonious environment where you and your dog feel understood and fulfilled.
Join our engaging to enhance your understanding of your dog, improve communication, gain tips for specific situations, connect with other dog owners, and socialization opportunities for your furry companion. You're warmly invited!
​
In my dog school, we embrace the power of positive reinforcement, recognizing that both affirmation and redirection are essential in guiding our beloved pets.
​
Preffered Rewards:
-
Kind and encouraging words that show our appreciation for their good behavior.
-
Expressing feelings of joy, pride, and affection to deepen the bond with our dogs.
-
Offering tasty snacks or treats as a special reward for their efforts and obedience.
