Our Philosophy
We seek to find what motivates your dog! We use treats, toys, and praise for motivation. Motivation is what drives behavior! Motivation also drives human behavior too! Our lessons put a big focus on training YOU, the humans! Your attitude and the time you choose to put in to your dog will decide how successful you dog is in training! Behavioral changes take time! We hope we can help you understand behavior from your dog's perspective for better communication as you progress. Whether you have a puppy, an adult dog, or a recent rescue, we want to show care and concern for your journey as a team!
