Motivating Canine offers a range of 1 to 1 private Fear Free training services to help your furkid. Apart from general dog training, Motivating Canine specialises in attending to rescued dogs of all ages through motivational techniques. These techniques use rewards and positive reinforcement to mould a dog's behaviour, rather than fear and punishment. Our Trainer Jennifer is IAABC Accredited Dog T

rainer, AVS Accredited Dog Trainer, Fear Free Certified Professional Trainer, Certified Family Dog Mediator. Being a member of IAABC, members are to adhere to the use of LIMA, also known as least intrusive, minimally aversive training methods. This means creating training plans with the most humane and effective training methods that are most likely to succeed in the training or behavior change. LIMA does not justify the use of punishment in lieu of other effective interventions and strategies. In the vast majority of behavior cases, desired behavior change can be affected by focusing on the animal’s environment, physical well-being, and operant and classical interventions such as differential reinforcement of an alternative behavior, desensitization, and counter-conditioning. Motivating Canine understands the possible worries, stresses or frustrations that resulted from the dog's behavioural issues. The goal for Motivating Canine is to help dog owners and their dogs build a healthier long-term relationship with better understanding, trust and bond through motivation, positive association, fear free and reward base training methods.

Big welcome to Sinbad and his extremely loving pawrents who has joined us for Sinbad's Project ADORE Programme! Although a little shy, Sinbad would still slowly come over to us to gently nudge for some treats. Needless to say, how could we say no to him?

Yoshi's trust and affection for humans are remarkable; her bond with her newly adoptive pawrents runs deep. It’s evident that she feels a strong sense of attachment, as she becomes visibly anxious when they leave the house.

Throughout our session, Yoshi remained close by, cuddling up next to us as she gradually relaxed and drifted off to sleep, completely at ease and unguarded. This demonstrates her yearning for companionship and security.

Recognizing this need, we will collaborate closely with her pawrents to implement strategies that will help Yoshi build her confidence in being alone at home, ensuring that she feels safe and comfortable in her environment.

One of the significant challenges that Toto's guardians faced was his inability to remain calm, particularly in situations where food was accessible. Toto had developed a habit of seizing every opportunity to steal food from the table.

During our session, we explained to Toto's pawrents regarding the concept of reinforcement rates to strengthen Toto's "settle" behavior. We also employed various techniques to teach Toto to remain calm in the presence of unattended food.

By rewarding him for calm behavior and providing clear boundaries regarding food access, we aimed to create a more peaceful dining environment and help Toto learn to settle calmly on his bed.

We had a lovely session with Taro and his pawrents. Our goal will be to help Taro cope with his outdoor triggers as well as tolerate being physically carried by his pawrents.

Sundae has been adopted into a loving home, and she is making everyone smile with her goofiness. Despite having experience with GR, Sundae's family wanted a refresher course on dog handling and care. Sundae learned the touch cue during our first session, and she started having fun touching everyone's hands even when they weren't asking for it.

Hello, I'm Leia. I love cats so much that I often go cat hunting because I want to make friends with them. Sometimes, I fixate on them and refuse to respond or move along with my parents. Unfortunately, my enthusiasm isn't always welcomed by the cats, and my parents want me to learn to relax instead of getting overly excited as it is difficult for them to take me for walks.
