Questions & answers

From Google

What people have asked about this business.

Does Northwest Obedience Club train with positive reinforcement? (No martingale or pinch/prong collars etc.)

We started our dog there using a pinch collar, but they are so good in helping you train your dog, we took it off. Great group of trainers there. 25 years and now our 3rd dog using them!

Yes, only positive reinforcement. They're amazing.

Question on Google
How to stop my 2year old Japanese chin from snapping my husband when he take the dog off my bed at night.

When a dog is allowed on the bed it will sometimes see itself as equal to others who share the bed. Could possibly be challenging husband for top dog position. When the dog is not allowed to be on the bed this challenge is taken away.

I would recommend obedience training with a good instructor who uses positive training methods. That's a behavior you want to address asap.

Community answer · Denise McMahon · 2018-09-21

My goal is to address the issue teaching him not to be aggressive under any circumstances my taking him off is not teaching him not to be aggressive.

Community answer · Tina Veit · 2018-09-21

Knowledgeable trainers make class fun. They offer suggestions to address specific behaviors. The club offers much more than behavioral training. I'm looking forward to participating in other classes.
