FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Are we a good match?
Each training starts with an evaluation. This helps us to determine if we are a good fit for you and your dog. We also discuss training goals.
Do you use E-collars?
Yes. We have used almost every tool in the dog training market and have found E-collars to be the most effective method despite their negative outlook. We guide our clients on the proper way to use the collar. We teach our client how to ensure the collar is used safely and does not leave markings on the dogs neck. Although E-collars provide a physical source of consequence momentarly it establishes a clear and precise line of communication between the dog and human. We also use prong collars to give clear and direct information to the dogs, which in turn helps them feel confident and safe. These collars allow us to give gentle guidance as well as a direct "no" in a safe and understandable way. Being able to communicate with your dog effectively will provide both you and your dog a sense of confidence and trust, and will strengthen the bond between owner and dog.
What happens if I don't see results?
There are various variables that come with creating a balanced, well- behaved dog; including the owner commitment and consistency. Even with a perfect environment we can not guarantee a 100% results. We only work with clients who make certain sacrifices in order to get the best results and best life for the dog.
