What method of training is used at Canines with a Cause?
We use a gentle and positive reinforcement method which in our experience has proven to be the most successful way to get the dog to cooperate in the learning process and later on to carry on with his work as a service dog. If the dog is motivated, the attention span and willingness to work is greater, therefore building a closer bond with the “leader” trainer. On occasion, if the dog has an unwanted behavior we are required to redirect the behavior with a task that is acceptable.
