I prefer a training philosophy much like your physician might adopt when treating patients - first, do no harm. Dogs are generally best trained using humane methods that make sense to them and put you in control, not necessarily by physical means, but by controlling the dog's access to resources, such as food, toys, access to the outdoors, etc. I want your dog to behave, but also to trust you and rely on you for guidance.
Jennifer N. Hack U.S. On Vacation returns 12/04/2009 View Profile View Past Answers	Knowledgeability 10.0 Clarity of Response 10.0 Timeliness 10.0 Politeness 10.0 Total Questions 59	Jennifer of www.DynamicDogsChicago.com I can answer questions on dogs- specifically on all types of training (protection training, pet training, competition, sport), behavior issues, breeds and breed history, some heath/veterinary, and any questions on nutrition or supplements. I like to give honesty from my experience and knowledge, and creative solutions to problems. BEHAVIOR PROBEMS, NO MATTER WHAT I TELL YOU- if you are having aggression problems, you need to find a qualified trainer. Behavior with dogs has to be seen in person, because owners interpret it in different ways. You cannot correct a dog who isn't trained, all dogs need a foundation of obedience training before you can fix these behavioral problems. PLEASE NO MORE QUESTIONS ON HOUSEBREAKING- Read my article on housebreaking www.dynamicdogschicago.com/housebreaking
