At Dog Training Adelaide we allow your dogs to make choices. We praise effort, and do not correct error. We encourage, and build on your dog’s confidence, and reward every increment of training. We do NOT train by correcting your dog when he is wrong. We instruct. When do we correct? When your dog says NO. That doesn’t mean we don’t use a leash to instruct. That does not mean we don’t give your dog a “no” when they are wrong.
We believe that all dogs should enjoy working. If we must beg our dogs, or use a treat or to get our dogs to get excited to work for us, then we have failed.
Having a dog is a responsibility, having an obedient dog is a pleasure.Using our balanced approach your dog and you can leave our training school with you knowing that you now have a better relationship with it and the knowledge that he will do as you say where ever he is.
We are here to firstly build a foundation for you and your dogs relationship to grow.As with any building without a strong foundation there is a strong likelihood of collapse.Nearly all problems regarding a disobedient dog is related to the relationship you have with it
The proof of an obedient dog is its performance off lead
Our aim is to give you an obedient dog in all circumstances.
A well behaved dog behaves on and OFF lead and not just in your back yard or house.
Does you dog come to you every time you call it when it is away from you?
Does it stay where you tell it regardless of things going on around it ?
Could you walk it off lead around the outside of a dog park?
A reliable dog isn’t just a well behaved one, its an obedient one ALL THE TIME.
Do not be fooled by the “feel good ,wrap you in cotton wool,doggy parent” cliches that the supposedly “new age scientific dog trainers” are using to tempt you by testing your morality.Telling you that other methods are cruel and inhumane and theirs is the “RIGHT WAY”. Regardless of how many courses and years of academic training they have,while the credentialing might ultimately address the “who” is offering the training, it does not address the “what” can/should the consumer reasonably expect.
We will tell you what you can expect and in what time frame and what cost.Operating on the Windsor Gardens Vocational College grounds every Sunday Morning from 9.30and Flinders Park primary School every Monday at 6pm we have helped countless clients achieve things with their dogs they never imagined they could.
We will gladly accept the unruly bad dogs that some other schools wont…. Do you wonder why they don’t want your “BAD” dog the one that really needs training ? Have a look at our banned dog list.
We give you a balanced,even approach to dog training, one that teaches your dog to trust and respect you.
