REWARDS AND POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT

Reward Based

My Loyal Companion provides training with extensive use of different types of rewards. EVERY behaviour and command at My Loyal Companion is taught through the use of rewards and positive reinforcement. Once a dog has a good foundation of the understanding and knowledge of what is being asked of them, then and ONLY then can we add in correction for non-compliance. Corrections are necessary for reliability of behaviours, commands, and outcomes. All escape and avoidance training techniques used; are selected with the smallest amount of pressure required. Every training tool is conditioned to the dog in a slow and positive manner. I love training and I want your dogs to love it too!

Nobody works for free – not even dogs 😉

TYPES OF REWARDS

Food
Toy
Play
Affection
Trick
Break & Sniff

*Mix it up and be creative to keep your dog’s engagement!

Whether you are looking for more knowledge on nutrition, socialization, e collar training or how to be an over-all better dog owner... these are some of my favourite reads and recommended books!

I HIGHLY recommend everyone who owns or interacts with dogs to read The Good Way, Love Them by Leading Them. This book gives a great perspective on rules, boundaries, and structure that are required in a dogs life and why!

Any other recommendations welcomed!
