Because your dog did not ask to be here, it must be fun for the dog and handler or behavior will not be shaped.
"ONLY POSITIVE NEVER PUNITIVE TRAINING METHODS ARE USED"
The Academy of Dog Training and Agility is built on the belief that:
“8 Weeks of training is better than 8 Years of wishing you had."
Our training methods are always positive reinforcement, to shape a positive behavior. We feel that punitive methods tend to weaken the bonding process that is fundamental to the dog/trainer relationship. Praise, food and clickers are used. It must be fun for both dog and trainer or no real learning takes place.
We believe that our facilities are the best in the tri-state area. The indoor facility is fully matted with state of the art shock absorbing non-slip rubber flooring The training center is 5,000 square feet, well lighted, heated and air conditioned.
Advanced Rally Obedience and Agility students meet at our outdoor location when the weather permits. This location is close by the indoor facility. The outdoor location is well lighted and fenced. This 15,000 square foot paddock allows for full agility ring training for practice runs on real course layouts.
TEAM PERFORMANCE IS OUR MISSION
