Train
How we
We use positive reinforcement and Pavlovian theory to train your dog.
​
All of our dogs start out learning basic skills and socialization. Once learned, basic skills evolve into more complex tasks until they become required service tasks. For example, "touch" is initially used to mitigate fear of new objects. and eventually becomes "alert" to let their owner know they need to take action.
