Positive Reinforcement Training
Positive reinforcement training involves rewarding your dog for good behavior with treats, praise, or toys. This method focuses on reinforcing desired behaviors and ignoring or redirecting unwanted behaviors.
Clicker Training
Clicker training uses a small device that makes a clicking sound to mark the exact moment your dog performs a desired behavior. This method is effective for teaching precise commands and shaping complex behaviors.
Behavioral Shaping
Behavioral shaping involves breaking down complex behaviors into smaller, manageable steps. By gradually shaping and reinforcing each step, you can train your dog to perform more advanced behaviors.
Canine Cognitive Training
Canine cognitive training focuses on stimulating your dog's mental abilities through puzzles, games, and interactive toys. This method helps improve your dog's problem-solving skills and mental agility.
