Our philosophy is simple: We don't use choke collars, prong collars or shock collars, period. Anyone can put on a prong collar and bully a dog, or shock a dog into a state of learned helplessness, but it takes a thorough understanding of canine behavior to change the way a dog learns, feels and reacts. Humane, modern dog training is based on science, and our fear-free, pain-free, positive reinforc

ement-based training approach ensures your dog receives the most innovative and expert training possible, while our compassion and dedication keeps our focus on the needs of you and your dog. When I decided to make the commitment to pursue a formal education in dog training I also committed to focusing my attention on educating the owners of the dogs. Once class is over it is up to you to continue your dog's learning, so it is my job to show you how, in a way that is easy to understand and won't take much time. Because if it’s not easy then you can’t do it, and if it’s not quick you won’t do it! Our motto: Training one end of the leash, educating the other. According to the Center for Canine Behavior Studies (CCBS), approximately 9 million dogs are born each year, and 4 million are abandoned or relinquished to rescues and shelters. Of those shelter dogs, an estimated 2.2 million are euthanized annually. The CCBS reports that behavior problems are the number 1 killer of dogs under the age of 3, while the National Council on Pet Population finds that most dogs are turned in to shelters for common behavior and training issues that could easily be solved with the assistance of a professional. In fact, research has found that training and socializing dogs when they're young can reduce or even eliminate behavior problems in the future. Our Teach & Train mission: Teach owners how to properly train their dogs so fewer dogs are relinquished to shelters.

Ash would enthusiastically bring us a toy every morning when we came downstairs. What does your dog do to acknowledge you have come home?

Different dogs have different motivations for bringing a toy to the door. Here are three of the most common reasons dogs bring you toys when you get home.

This is normal. And safe. And smart.

This is normal. And safe. And smart.

Let's get real for a second.

The world often paints a picture that dogs who live together are best friends and do everything together.

This is just not true. Many many many multidog household utilize management in different situations to allow dogs personal space to enjoy things such as:

- feeding time
- chew time
- play time
- attention time

This. Is. Normal.

Just because someone utilizes management, doesn't mean their dogs don't enjoy each other's company or have fun together. It just means that there are certain activities that they prefer to do on their own.

And I will tell you firsthand that implementing safe space zones and time apart can be so beneficial to the relationship between two dogs.

Think about it-- do you enjoy doing every single activity that you do at home with your spouse, family, or sibling RIGHT there? I don't think so.

So let's normalize management between dogs who live together!!

"Dogs don’t come pre-programed to understand how to behave in our human world—they rely on us to teach them."

Dog training tools like leashes, treat pouches, and chew toys can make positive reinforcement a daily habit in your dog training routine.

"Along with increased sleep, many issues common in senior dogs can cause pain and discomfort, leading to physical and mental changes. Changes in appetite, stiffness, difficultly getting up and down or with stairs, anxiety, and aggression are all concerning for a senior dog in pain."

When is a dog considered a senior? Learn the signs that your dog is aging and when small, large, and medium-sized dogs are officially seniors.

BUYER BEWARE!

“So, I think the most important thing for guardians to know is that training method is a very important aspect when selecting a trainer and they should seek clarification if this information is not readily available, as this is as much (if not more!) important as knowing logistical details such as which classes are offered.”

Great news for dogs and their guardians who can access modern, scientific dog training—but people still need to ask questions.

If you are/were a client of ours you undoubtedly were introduced to the clicker, or at least the word "Yes!". It is all because of this woman. RIP Karen Pryor. You are a legend.

"Ti**le, ti**le, little Pug, must you mark upon my rug? Or the side of the couch? Or the leg of the coffee table?"

Many dog owners are familiar with a dog's unwanted usage of "p*e mail," more accurately known as "urine marking." Here's how to stop it.

"If your dog is a picky eater, it can be tough to know how to make a meal more appealing. Fortunately, there are high-quality dog foods specifically designed to entice even the pickiest of pups."

If your dog is a picky eater you may have trouble finding dog food. Finding dry dog food for picky eaters is a special challenge.

PSA: Medical problems (including allergies) can be the cause of behavioral problems, and must be addressed before training can help.

Zyrtec is a safe medication for dogs that can help with itchiness due to allergies, or bug bites. However, before using Zyrtec find out why your dog itches.

Merry Christmas! Chase loves opening his present more than the present itself! Let’s see your dogs with their new toys!

Casey is (was) a puller. Don’t believe the chatter from the prong and shock collar advocates. Even big, strong dogs can be taught to walk nicely with a properly fitted harness and a high value motivator. No dog needs a heavy hand. No dog needs to be subjected to force, fear, or pain. #bethesnackfeedernotthepackleader #dentlersdogtraining #pottstowndogtrainer #clickertrainingfordogs #positivereinforcementdogtraining #clicktreatrepeat #noforce #nofear #nopain #nochokecollarneeded #noprongcollarneeded #noshockcollarneeded #realmenweartreatpouches

Clooney did great learning how to walk without pulling, even when a dog was barking at him from just a few feet away! A well fitting harness and some motivating treats make a huge difference. #dentlersdogtraining #pottstowndogtrainer #positivereinforcementdogtraining #clickertrainingfordogs #noforce #nofear #nopain #nochokecollarneeded #noprongcollarneeded #noshockcollarneeded #bethesnackfeedernotthepackleader

My client sent me this video. Java’s been working on place while the family is eating. This week she stayed on her spot while Mom ate lunch. Way to go Java and Mama!

Finn was afraid to walk up and down the stairs, until today! Look at him go! Great job Finn and Finn’s Mom!

Gracie gets excited about her walks and pulls. She has made progress but still was too eager. Today we employed the 300 Peck Method and what a difference it made. Don’t you agree? #dentlersdogtraining #pottstowndogtrainer #positivereinforcementdogtraining #clickertrainingfordogs #clicktreatrepeat #noforce #nofear #nopain #realmenweartreatpouches #bethesnackfeedernotthepackleader #300peckmethod #looseleashwalking #germanshepherd #germanshepherdsofinstagram #gsdofig #gsd

Roni has a history of attacking her housemate over food, especially in the kitchen. She and her people have worked very hard on Touch, Leave It, Engage/Disengage, all of which has culminated in a default Leave It/eye contact. She was so happy with her job well done that she sprinted out of the room to get her brand new Lamb Chop that took her all of 5 minutes to de-squeak! #dentlersdogtraining #pottstowndogtrainer #pisitivereinforcementdogtraining #clickertrainingfordogs #clicktreatrepeat #realmenweartreatpouches #bethesnackfeedernotthepackleader #noforce #nofear #nopain #noshockcollarneeded

And another thing…

Today was our initial walk with our very first Dog Walking client, Ragnar the Gentle Giant. He is such a good boy. If you would like mid-day walks for your dog done by professional dog trainers contact us today!
