My Methods
No breed needs a heavy hand. I am only interested in using modern techniques backed by science. That means:
- I’m force-free, reward-based only (not strictly food but it is most common)
- I teach the dog what I DO want them to do, not what I DON’T want
- I take into account the dog’s natural needs and emotions
- I often use a clicker
- I break training down into small steps and move at the dog’s pace
- It’s how I train my own dogs and how I train client dogs!
