Samantha S. Dog Trainer Bio

I am dedicated to helping owners understand their dogs on a deeper level. My specialty lies in energetic dogs and puppies, with an emphasis on enrichment, play, and reward-based training. I discuss suitable training plans and procedures, highlighting the significance of force-free, relationship-based training methods. Additionally, I create homework pages that summarize the activities of each training session. I believe that positive reinforcement methods are most effective because they focus on addressing the underlying emotions behind behaviors, rather than merely suppressing the symptoms. What works for one dog may not work for another, as each dog is unique and may require a tailored approach. If a dog becomes frustrated during training, it may be necessary to reassess the methods being used.
