Training methods have evolved SO much in the past 20 years!
 
Methods and “certain” trainers that were popular in 2002 are now the bane of the training world. While many types of training are available, balanced and force-free seem to be the most popular types currently.
 
In this episode, we will chat with Lauren, a CPDT-KA. (Certified Professional Dog Trainer-Knowledge Assessed) about outdated training methods. Specifically on dominant and forced behavior training and why it is dangerous and damaging to your pets. We will also touch on a couple of controversial trainers who seem to have a large following and guide you on how to choose a trainer that is not only qualified to train you and your dog but that will adapt to your dog’s individual needs.
 
Not every trainer is right for every dog. Not every training style is right for every dog. It is time to learn how to pick the best trainer for our dog's needs, just like we would want to pick the correct doctor or therapist for ourselves.
