I strive to give dogs AND their owners a good foundation in obedience and strengthen the bond between them. Of course, a lot depends on the commitment of the owner! Practice always helps! For my competition students, we work toward perfection, but within the limitation of the team. In other words: we train to the best of the team's abilities at that time. My rally obedience students typically do very well at shows. Training is done with a positive note: I want the students to succeed with their dog! Training should be fun, even though we may be working hard! We will use a combination of clicker training, luring, and praise/rewards to help the dog succeed and understand the behaviors being trained. Referrals to behaviorists and other trainers are on an as-needed basis; I don't handle aggression cases, and will refer to respected competitive obedience trainers.
