The scientific research overwhelmingly demonstrates that shock leads to or contributes to fear, pain, aggression, panic and stress when compared to positive reinforcement training. In fact, shock collars are considered inhumane and are illegal to use in many countries and regions including Scotland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Austria, Switzerland, Slovenia, Germany, Quebec, Wales and parts of Australia.

Many organizations have published position statements advising against the use of electronic collars including European Society of Veterinary Clinical Ethology (ESVCE), American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB, Association of Pet Dog Trainers (APDT), Pet Professionals Guild (PPG), Humane Society of the United States, and the United Kingdom Kennel Club to name a few.

The good news is when you choose Always Faithful Dog Training you choose a company whose slogan is NO TREATS, NO CLICKERS, NO SHOCK COLLARS, NO GIMMICKS! ™

Hello folks, Bruno is a cat aggressive dog.
The owners have a hard time controlling when he smells a cat. I managed to get him to this level in 7 days. Would you like to learn how to accomplish this? It really isn’t difficult if you are willing to peruse a “relationship “ with your dog.

Mita finished some high distraction training. She was a dog with a manic toy drive and hard to control in busy environments.
She can now stay calm at different location and get calm confident directions from her owner.

Oh hey, spring buddies! ☀️🐕 Ready to beat the heat as it is getting warmer? Before you grab those clippers to give your pooch a spring shave, let's chat about why their furry coats are cooler than you might think!

1. **Built-in AC:** Yup, that fluffy coat does more than make your dog look adorable; it helps regulate their body temp. The American Kennel Club says it's like their own personal insulation system, keeping them cool when it's hot. 🌬️🔥

2. **Sun Shield:** Think of their fur like sunscreen! Shaving it off can expose their skin to those harsh summer rays, leading to sunburn and other ouchies. So, let's keep that fur on for natural UV protection! 🌞🛡️

3. **Texture Alert:** Once you shave, you might change their coat's texture forever. And not in a cool, punk rock kind of way. We're talking more like, "Oops, why isn't it growing back right?" 😬

**Pro Tip:** Rather than shaving, why not try regular grooming? Thinning out the undercoat can help your pup stay cool without risking any fur faux pas. And always keep fresh water and shade handy to help them chill out! 💧🌳

Summer's almost here, so let's keep it breezy and easy for our furry friends! 🌼🐾

Avoid dog training camps, doggy boot camps and board and train facilities that claim to "do all the hard work". The respect your dog gives you will ONLY come from the work and time YOU put into the dog.

To train a dog is similar to losing weight, as everyone knows how to do it but often lacks accountability. Finding a trainer who can provide such accountability is crucial.

Humans love quick fixes but when it comes to your dog the human should do things slowly and methodically. A true bond forms when you spend time with your dog.

With routine and patience even the most difficult behaviors can be rectified.

A balanced dog is a happy, calm dog, independent of the breed. Issues can be breed related, but not caused by the breed.
