We use the Humane Hierarchy and LIMA "tactics likely to succeed in achieving a training or behavior change objective. In the vast majority of cases, desired behavior change can be affected by focusing on the animal’s environment, physical well-being, and operant and classical interventions such as differential reinforcement of an alternative behavior, desensitization, and counter-conditioning."

We work with all breeds of dogs, including mixed- bred and purebred. We are very experienced with the different temperaments and functions of the various breeds and we include those facts when creating a training plan for your dog. We work with Great Danes very often because we own Great Danes and people see us out and about having fun with our own, well-mannered dogs and they ask us to train theirs. We also volunteer for rescue and we receive many requests to rehabilitate and train Great Danes.
Handling Class Information Below
Handling class - 1 hour - $15 - Includes: an opportunity to work on dog show techniques for the owner and/or pro handler and the dog. This is a good class to introduce or practice with your show dog or potential show dog. Your dog learns to behave around other dogs, stand for exam and move properly on lead in the ring. The Instructor will act as a mock "dog show judge" and will be the individual conducting the physical exam. We will have experienced guest mock "judges" on occasions as well. All ages of dogs, including puppies, are welcome. There is no minimum sessions required. The classes are not limited in size. Showing is just one of the many activities people and their dogs enjoy.
