At K9ology we understand that one size does not fit all.
Luckily, an understanding of various methods and teaching approaches allows us to help you based on your dog's needs.
My first choice of training is definitely positive reinforcement, or reward-based training.
Using praise, play, food, treats, social contact, and access to the world, allows training to be fun, motivational, and empowering for both dog and human.
This is a great tool when teaching new behaviors, practicing rusty manners, and working on social skills.
