Teamwork K-9 Training, Teaching Philosophy.
Providing education for people to effectively communicate with and to understand their dogs,
through the integration of science and humanity.
Teamwork K-9 Training believes in positive reinforcement, operant conditioning and force free training types. We use science to teach and train our furry and feathered loved ones. This is a hands-off approach to training which encourages dogs to think for themselves and to earn payment/rewards through offering desired behaviour.
Training with these methods result in a more confident and happy dog and also helps them to become more intelligent through problem solving.
These methods help people and their dogs or other types of pets, to work and learn together and creates a strong and trusting bond between them, leading to happy ‘forever’ homes. Our training program encourages the whole family to get involved and creates a valuable learning experience for the dog and their owners. ‘Real life rewards’ help to keep things fun for everyone.
