Why positive REINFORCEMENT?

What is Positive Reinforcement?

​Positive reinforcement is rewarding good behavior with treats, praise, or life rewards (games, walks, car rides)

Anyone can do it.

When using positive reinforcement training techniques, anyone in your family can train the dog.  With positive reinforcements, there is no need to use physical strength for leash corrections, or a strong tone of voice.

Clearer communication for the dog.

​Consequences aren’t always clear to a dog. For example, punishing indoor accidents teaches your dog not to eliminate around you. On the other hand, rewarding outside potties will communicate clearly that good things happen when he eliminates outdoors.

Used for different behaviors

​Positive reinforcement can be used to teach your dog new commands or to reinforce good behavior. For example, you can prevent bolting, jumping on people, or good meal-time manners, all with positive reinforcement training.

It's a mental workout.

​Boredom can give rise to a lot of unwanted behavior, like digging, excessive barking, and chewing. A few short positive training sessions throughout the day will help your dog burn off a lot of that excess energy.

It's fun.

Once your dog realizes that training leads to the things he likes, your dog will begin to view training sessions as playtime. He will begin behaving in a desirable way in the hopes of getting his rewards, while you get to enjoy his antics.

Strengthens the bond with your dog. 

​Do you like being recognized for work you do well? So does your dog! While other training methods will teach your dog how to behave, positive reinforcement will also build trust, strengthening your relationship.
