Problem solving and bad habits is fundamentally about creating new associations for your dog. When you praise and reward the appropriate behavior they're more likely to repeat it.

Sure that sounds simple but often times the behaviors when our pups are unsupervised. And that's where Alpha's experts can help. We'll troubleshoot the problem and help you better communicate with your dog. There are times when this may be hard to believe but your dog really just wants to make you happy!

Rescue Rehab
One of the most important things you can do with your new adoptee is enroll in training. You'll open the lines of communication and bond with you new family member. Remember, many dogs end up in shelters because they didn't receive proper training and may have developed bad habits.

We start with an assessment providing behavioral blueprints. Then we move onto the basics, even if its just a review. Not only will your dog learn they must comply but it's also a great way to establish trust and boost confidence paving the way to deal with more advanced behavioral issues.

 

Our methods are based on positive motivation, positive reinforcement and moderation. We do not believe in the use of verbal/physical abuse or shock collars.
