Why should you choose Paw & Hand for your obedience training?
The goal of obedience training is to help owners and their dogs understand each other and communicate better. As training progresses and that line of communication is improved, the bond between owner and dog also deepens.
Training methods at Paw & Hand are simple, straightforward, and include both positive and negative reinforcements. Motivators such as praise, toys and/or treats are used to show the dog what is expected of him. Once the dog understands the commands and exercises, the owner is taught how to get their dog to obey the commands consistently, with and then without the motivators. The methods used are pleasant and fun for both the owner and the dog. Our system produces happy, attentive dogs.
Training arrangments include in-your-own-home sessions, where most problems take place, private and semi-private lessons at various locations, and small group classes. See Training & Classes for more information.
We solve most behavorial problems at Paw & Hand, teach basic and advanced pet manners, and introduce owners to the world of competitive obedience as a fun dog sport. Our methods are fun for both the dog and the owner. Our dogs LOVE to train! See Training & Classes for Class Descriptions.
Common behavorial problems will be addressed during every pet class, but you might be surprised at how many problems resolve themselves simply by channeling your dog's energy into obedience training.
Just before every new set of classes begins we will hold a free orientation to discuss typical dog behavior, our training philosophy, and to demonstrate our methods and typical results. Orientation is mandatory for new beginning students. Family, friends and the public are welcome to attend.
The benefits of massage therapy are numerous; our dogs experience the same benefits from therapeutic massage that we do. They are our family members, our constant companions, and sometimes our partners in a competitive sport. Therefore, they deserve the same level of care we provide to ourselves.
