Dog training PROGRAMS – Madison, WI
We offer group classes, private dog training, and play & train experiences that can be added on to any daycare play or boarding stay. We offer your first training consultation completely free!
Each member of the team is either certified themselves or eligible and waiting to sit for the certification exam. We employ methods and principles of dog training that adhere to the Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive (LIMA) training framework. LIMA methods put your dog’s wellness first, using tools and techniques that minimize undue stress, anxiety, and fear for ethical and humane techniques. Positive reinforcement is our teams’ first line of teaching and is applied consistently. Positive reinforcement is associated with the lowest incidence of aggression, attention seeking, avoidance, and fear in learners. To read the Association of Professional Dog Trainers position statement on LIMA, please go here.
