Training should be fun

As balanced dog trainers we use “yes” and “no”.  We reward the behaviour we want to keep and correct the unwanted behaviours.  Some trainers limit themselves to reward only training.  This can be confusing for a dog and prolong the learning process.  By conveying exactly what you like and don’t like your dog can quickly learn which choices make owner and dog happy.  Providing clear guidance and structure is what makes balanced training the best option for teaching.
