| GROUP
TRAINING CLASSES |
|
|
|
All group classes
teach and utilize positive, reward based techniques and clicker
training, which focus on rewarding positive behaviors and
redirecting negative behaviors.
Jennifer believes every dog to be an individual and as such finds
the appropriate rewards and techniques for each particular dog.
All classes are
limited to eight dogs to allow for each participant to receive individual attention and advice. The entire
family is encouraged to participate in training, producing a dog
that responds reliably to every family member.
