What tip would you give pet parents for working with animals that you've learned as a pro?
What suits one dog may not suit another. In trying to change your dog's behavior, find out first what your unique dog really loves. Is it food? Exercise? Games? Affection? Reward your dog for the doing the correct behavior with something he loves rather than punishing the undesirable behavior.
What is one thing you want pet parents to know about you? It can be whatev-fur you'd like!
When I develop a training plan for you, it is with care and attention. I look at the unique needs of your family and your dog to design an effective plan of action.
