Involvement
Rewarding desired behaviors to encourage repetition. This method makes training enjoyable and motivates dogs to learn and obey commands willingly.
Changing your dog’s emotional response to specific stimuli. If your dog has developed fear or anxiety towards certain triggers, we gradually introduce these triggers in a controlled manner, paired with positive experiences. Over time, your dog learns to associate the once-feared stimuli with positive outcomes, reducing anxiety and fear. This method is particularly effective for dogs with phobias or reactivity issues.
Desensitization is a gradual process of exposing your dog to a stimulus that causes fear or anxiety at a low intensity, and then slowly increasing the exposure as your dog becomes more comfortable. This method helps your dog build confidence and reduce sensitivity to various triggers. It is often used in conjunction with counter-conditioning to help dogs overcome fears and adapt to different environments and situations.
Clicker training is a precise and effective method that uses a clicker as a marker to indicate the exact moment your dog performs a desired behavior. This is followed by a reward, reinforcing the behavior. Clicker training provides clear communication and immediate feedback, which accelerates the learning process. It is a powerful tool for teaching new behaviors and refining existing ones, making training sessions efficient and enjoyable.
Teaching obedience and good manners is essential for a harmonious relationship with your dog. Our training covers basic commands such as sit, stay, come, and polite greetings, as well as advanced obedience skills. We ensure that your dog responds reliably to commands in various situations, both at home and in public. This training not only improves your dog’s behavior but also enhances their safety and your peace of mind.
Proper socialization is crucial for a well-adjusted and confident dog. We help your dog develop positive interactions with other dogs and people, reducing the risk of fear-based aggression or anxiety. Through controlled and positive exposure to different environments, sounds, and experiences, your dog learns to navigate the world calmly and confidently. This training is particularly important for puppies and dogs with limited social exposure.
Behavior Adjustment Training (BAT) focuses on helping dogs make better choices in response to triggers that cause fear, frustration, or aggression. This method encourages dogs to use socially acceptable behaviors to cope with these triggers, building trust and reducing reactivity. By empowering your dog to make decisions and reinforcing calm behavior, BAT helps create a balanced and well-behaved pet.
