Key Topics Covered:

Why Train Your Adolescent Dog?

Training your adolescent dog is crucial for their development. Similar to teenagers, adolescent dogs test boundaries and become more independent. Proper training ensures your dog becomes a well-behaved and well-adjusted adult. During adolescence, dogs experience their second fear period, becoming fearful of previously familiar things. Training helps build confidence and manage these new feelings positively.

Additionally, training provides mental stimulation, important during physical changes in adolescence. Strengthening the bond between you and your dog fosters trust and understanding.

Positive Reinforcement Dog Training

Our course uses positive reinforcement dog training methods, rewarding desired behaviors with treats, praise, or playtime, rather than punishment. This is the most effective and humane dog training method, encouraging good behavior and building a positive relationship based on trust and respect.

Using punishment or harsh methods can negatively affect your dog’s behavior and well-being, leading to fear, anxiety, or aggression. Positive reinforcement focuses on teaching your dog what you want them to do, not punishing unwanted behaviors.
