About the Trainer
Canine Scholars Dog Training aims to teach dogs to listen to their first command, helping owners find packages that accommodate their needs. They emphasize modern training methods based on psychology principles like operant and classical conditioning, which they describe as “do something good and you’ll be rewarded.”
The business highlights three top reasons to train: to communicate effectively with your dog, to avoid breaking bad habits by starting early, and to strengthen the bond with your pet, enabling you to enjoy life together. They suggest that training helps raise dogs who behave exceptionally well.
