Our philosophy in training is simple.
Do what works. Do what makes sense. We will never ask you to do something that you don't feel comfortable with. We believe in building a strong positive foundation between dog and owner. We do that by teaching the basic fundamentals of clear communication with your dog. When we get clear concise communication, training becomes a breeze. We want to teach the dogs what we expect of them through a reward based method so that the dogs is clear about our expectations. But, at some point, any dog will push the limits and the owner needs to set firm and clear boundaries.
