About Us
Our Guiding Principles
Our Mission Statement:
We understand that, although not all dog owners are experienced trainers, they still want a well-trained pet. We create simple and affordable science-based programs that teach pet dog owners precise knowledge and proven positive reinforcement techniques so that they can safely and effectively bring out the best in their dogs and in themselves. We help them achieve the cooperative dog of their dreams without using force or fear.
Our Key characteristics:
- Committed - We keep our word and always follow through by finishing what we start.
- Compassionate - The well-being of our dogs is always the priority so we strive to understand their needs, enrich their lives, build trust, and increase their confidence.
- Flexible - We embrace a positive, growth mindset and are not discouraged by setbacks. We view failures as valuable information.
Our Critical actions:
- We are life long learners so we ask questions and seek opportunities to grow.
- We find the good and reward it with gratitude. We pay more attention to what our dogs do right and less to what is wrong.
- First, we understand and then we implement. Our actions are supported by knowledge.
Our Story:
We know that the joys of raising and training the family dog are often mixed with unforeseen challenges even for those with dog experience. Every dog is a unique individual. Hit or miss attempts at a quick fix can leave owners feeling helpless, confused, and embarrassed.
Our exclusive training programs teach pet owners step-by-step, proven, evidence-based systems that prevent problems proactively without the use of fear, force, or punishment.
When dog parents know how to bring out the very best in their dogs both at home and in public, they feel pride and confidence in their dog's willing cooperation.
Our Core Theme:
When people and dogs really know and trust each other, they can together reach their highest potential as a team.
