We use paws'itive reinforcement to reach even the most poorly mannered dogs. We cultivate the trust of the dog to facilitate a teaching method for the “furrent” (furparent/owner) and the canine companion. There are numerous methods that are used in training our furry life-partners, however we believe that dogs primary focus is on the resource; thus we use paws'itive reinforcement of food, touch, and verbal praise. When you join the Pal Pack you can feel assured that you are gaining knowledge as to how to work with your furfamily with compassion and care, with respect and reverence, and most of all in the language that your dog is speaking until they learn your language.
