In as little as 15 minutes a day you can build a strong well balanced pack bond/relationship with your dog. Discover simple scientific "peer-reviewed" methods to teach your dog "Basic" and "Advanced" manners needed to be a really great pet, on-leash or off-leash without fighting with the dog and repeating commands! Each dog is an individual and training needs to be modified for each dog's specific needs. The vast majority of Tom's client's dogs are successfully trained with 99% "No-Force" methods and the Paw-Lite program SPECIFICALLY works to minimize and eliminate corrections in the late stages by gently training and guiding the dog in the early stages of learning. In cases of Aggression, Fear, Separation Anxiety, behavior is always 100% modifiable! Most dog bites don't just "happen". Often there are many months of "going along with the dog". If your dog is Dominant, Submissive, Territorial, Protective, Guarding, Lunging, Biting, it can still be trained to be a great pet! And the dog needs someone to start working with it NOW! All training at Paw-Lite is based steadfastly on the tenants of "Operant Conditioning" which gently reinforces and shapes the dog's behavior using very fun and practical techniques, involving "Motivation", "Pack Leadership" and "Active Communication". Leadership Training is based on Canine Ethnology, Behaviour and Psychology. It it is a natural way of communicating, involving body language, voice tone, touch, and visual cues based on normal canine social behavior. Learn to be your dog's pack leader and understand the dog's natural instincts, while in the process of training him. Tom regularly attends continuing education programs facilitated by dog training leaders in the industry, and he can show you the latest positive "technology" for training and socializing your pet, through personal In-Home instruction. Let Tom show you how to teach your dog with a very lite-handed approach. The result of training is not only a dog that will love to listen to you, but a correctly balanced relationship with your pet, based on mutual trust and respect. CALL for your appointment TODAY!!
