MY APPROACH
Fatima, Head Trainer and Owner
I firmly believe in evidence-backed, scientifically proven positive reinforcement methods for dog training.
Dog training is an unregulated field, which is why it’s important to check the credentials and continuing education of anyone you’re considering as a trainer for your beloved pet. Don’t just take their word for it. I encourage you to google the certifications yourself.
I pride myself on my qualifications and up-to-date knowledge, so you can feel confident and secure working with me.
To ensure that you and your dog have a safe and fun learning experience, the only dog training methods used are the ones recommended by the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior while following the Least Inhibitive, Functionally Effective (LIFE) model by Dr Eduardo J Fernandez.
You will never find punishment, force or harmful training tools such as remote e-collars, prong collars, or choke chains in your dog’s training plan.
