Dog's do speak but only to those who listen
Understanding the underlying reasons behind our dog's behavior is essential for effective communication and problem-solving. Dogs, like humans, have motivations and instincts that drive their actions, and it is crucial to delve into the "why" behind their behavior rather than simply reacting to the behavior itself.
What training principles and methods do Trail Sniffers use?
At Trail Sniffers, we are committed to following the LIMA approach, which stands for 'Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive.' Our training methods prioritize the well-being and comfort of your dog, ensuring that we do not use confrontational or forceful techniques.
We work with the dog that is infront of us. Each dog is unique, and we tailor our training approach to suit the individual dog in front of us. By focusing on positive reinforcement, we encourage and reward desirable behaviors, fostering a positive learning experience.
With our LIMA-based approach, we strive to create a training journey that empowers both you and your dog to feel good both on the inside and outside.
