Training Services
Scaredy Dog offers a variety of training services. Our goal is to provide you with the tools necessary to help your dog be brave and live his best life. Our training services include private sessions, day training, pet sitting, as well as a training and pet sitting combo package for when you’re traveling.
At Scaredy Dog, I train using the Karen Pryor philosophy. I rely strictly on positive reinforcement and firmly believe punishment (as determined by the dog, not the owner) degrades the human-canine bond. Additionally, I hold the belief that punishing a scared dog only increases his fear. As a direct result, that’s why I train dogs in my care with lots of kindness, compassion, and good food.
Training Sessions
- Private sessions: Private sessions are with the owner and the dog, and are recommended once a week.
- Day training*: Day training is where the dog is trained directly by the trainer, no owner presence required. Day training length and schedule may vary, but typically consists of three training sessions with your dog each week for 4 weeks, including one session with the owner to transfer knowledge and to evaluate progress.
