Dogs Learn Best from a Leader They Respect (not fear)

Training will take place in your home.
The very place where the pack dynamics play themselves out.

Rescue/Special Needs

Dogs that have been rescued or rehomed often require Behavior Modification due to the nature of neglect and/or trauma they may have experienced. The process of counter-conditioning requires patience and compassion while your new family adapts to the pack. The short-term goal is to reduce unwanted behaviors and replace them with desirable behaviors.


Emphasis:

  • Building Trust 

  • Pack Adaption

  • Positive Reinforcement

  • Behavior Modification

  • Counter Conditioning

Based on the information you provide on the submission form and a pre-training phone conversation, Todd will determine best practices to teach you how to help your new family member to become a well-balanced pack member.

Rescue Peace Pack

The Rules of 3 apply to most Rehomed/Rescued dogs:

  • 3 days to decompress 

  • 3 weeks to recognize patterns

  • 3 months to fully adapt

During this time period, It is common to see fear and/or fear aggression in dogs that have been the victims of abuse and/or neglect. Many of these poor souls have a form of canine post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD).

Your new family member requires compassionate training and counter-conditioning in order to develop the life long bonds that they desperately desire. The long-term goal is to reduce unwanted behaviors and replace them with desirable behaviors. This gradual process develops trust and positive patterns that help them to become well-balanced pack members.
