Setbacks
I know setbacks are something that happens to all of us so lets talk about it. There are times when we train our dogs and then they have what we could call a "setback." What is this all about? Remember our dogs are no different from us. They will NEVER do anything...
Stories Are They Really True?
Remember 100% of our reality is created through our thoughts (beliefs) and our emotions. It is no different with your dog. What stories are you still holding onto? How are they effecting your lives beyond your dogs? I talked to a client today and she stated that...
Control Verses Team Work
When I first switched to positive reinforcement dog training (reward-based dog training), I still was in a mode of control. I was in a mode of what I say goes. When I told my dog to do something I created a thought in my mind that my dog must follow through and I...

"A person who has been punished is not thereby simply less inclined to behave in a given way; at best, he learns how to avoid punishment." - B. F. Skinner B.F. Skinner was a major supporter for positive reinforcement and the above statement also applies to animals. I...
The Truth of “Look at That!”
Some of you know about the command "Look at That!". Some of you may not. This command has changed my life with my once loud border collie that is amazingly quiet most of the time. Of course he is a border collie so barking is part of his life and yet through...
Committment
The first step to anything in our life is commitment. Our actions and the way we live our lives shows us what we are committed to. As a dog trainer I only accept clients that are fully committed to wanting to train their dog with me. Why? If the owner isn't...
