Let's face it.
Everyone's idea of a perfect dog is
different. For some, showing their dog on
the conformation circuit is the ultimate
goal. For others, they just want a dog that
won't steal the Thanksgiving turkey while the
holiday guests are arriving. At Pawsitive
Steps, we want you to have a dog that YOU want to
live with. Our classes are geared towards
everyday pet owner who wants to have a
do-anything dog who will lovingly respond
to ALL members of your household, each and
every time. Our philosophy is that good dog
training begins with good human training. Yes,
you read this correctly! Our classes should
actually be called HUMAN TRAINING
courses, because that is what we strive to
do: TRAIN HUMANS...
Sure, we could take and
train your dogs for you. But after two weeks,
your dog would end up right where you started,
leaving you to curse our good name to anyone
who would listen...
Unless your dog knows
what YOU expect from them on a continual bases,
there will always be a disconnect between what
YOU want and what they WILL do. If the humans
learn to be fair and consistent, there is no room
left for guessing the
dogs part!
Pawsitive Steps staff members
look at each dog as an individual. We recognize
that often, methods that work for some don't
always work well for others.
Using consistent methods that make sense to
the dog, we teach humans how to more
effectively communicate with their
animal. We are proud to assist in bridging
the gap between what you may THINK you are
saying to your dog and what they are
ACTUALLY hearing. Our goal is to create
joy and life-long relationships between humans and
their dogs.
Whether you are interested in a
seminar, group classes, private lessions, or a
private consultation, our staff is ready to
assist you and your four-legged
pal.
We look forward to working with
you and your faithful
companion!
