Our Training Method | Thinking Canine

Build A Solid Foundation

We love our dogs, and want what is best for them. We want fast results that don’t have any kind of fallout. Relationship building and positive reinforcement training along with consistently enforced rules is the best way to achieve any goals you may have. If you build your relationship with your dog, and teach them what you want them to do, they will happily and willingly do what you ask! Yes, it’s that simple.

Relationship Building

Strong Leadership and Clear Guidance

Controlling what the dog wants

Giving dogs rewards for a job well done

Setting boundaries, enforcing rules, and teaching skills

By doing all of these things we create a civilized companion who knows what is expected of them.

Our program revolves around teaching your dog to focus on you. A focused dog is a dog who is ready to work and listen. Your dog isn’t stubborn, stupid, or lazy. He just needs some training. We can help!
