True Bond Dog Training

Introducing Peewee. His people were very apprehensive about training because of some common misconceptions. Five minutes in, they were completely on board!
A reminder to do your own research, check sources, and use some common sense. If someone's main argument is that your dog doesn't speak English so you can't tell what they're feeling, I might question their conclusions.

I am so excited to start working with Salt, a 7 month, deaf, herding mix. It's going to be a learning experience for both of us!

Prong collars. There is so much information about them out there that it's really hard to decide what to believe. Are they the magical answer to every problem your dog has, or should you be locked up and have your dog taken away if you even consider using one?
Like everything else, the answer is in the middle. I consider them to be an essential tool in training dogs, but it doesn't mean that if you put it on your dog your work is over. It also doesn't mean that there isn't a right and wrong way to use them.
Here is an article written by the person I apprenticed with which explains it all pretty well.

Simba is one of the first dogs I got to work with. His people were dedicated and receptive and amazing and I'm happy to say that they don't need me anymore!!

Ollie needs just the right amount of encouragement from his person. He's a little less confident than he seems, but we are building it up and the world gets a little less overwhelming every day!

This lady has been making fantastic progress. She was both reactive and a slow walker. Like, a half hour to drag her around one block sort of slow walker.

Training your dog isn't about limiting them, it's about letting them reach their potential.

This little ten pounder and her person have been making great strides. Dottie wouldn't walk more than 10 feet without planting herself and now, look at her go!

There's nothing like having your dog be as invested in you as you are in them!
