Behavior Modification & Training
Knowing your trainer's philosophy is important. It is the basis on which they build their training foundation. I am a graduate of the Northwest School of Canine Studies. My instructor and mentor Cristine Dahl has done all levels of training, from military dogs to companions. Our philosophy is based on Force Free and Kind training. The backing of it is based on scientific studies of DOGS NOT WOLVES. No adverse methods are used, whether it be a prong, shock, choke collar. We are here for the purpose of helping you achieve a fun and rewarding life with your dog.
