Dog Training Methodology

Methods: 

  • Positive Reinforcement Only

Equipment: 

  • Food Rewards

Nebraska Dog Trainers employs a proven, three-phase training process designed to achieve fast and lasting results. This process focuses on building a strong foundation of good training and clear communication.

Phase 1, “Show & Tell,” involves teaching dogs exercises and commands using extensive positive reinforcement, including food, treats, toys, and praise. The goal is to establish an enthusiastic response to verbal cues and motivate the dog to engage with the handler.

Phase 2, “Practice & Accountability,” builds upon the dog’s understanding by implementing longer durations of cues, adding motion and distance from the handler, and introducing tempting distractions. In this phase, dogs are encouraged to make good choices without knowing when a reward is coming.

Phase 3, “Exposure & Habit,” focuses on generalizing obedience skills by exposing the dog to new situations and environments, including public spaces. This phase aims to establish a habit of obedience in any setting, ensuring the dog is well-behaved anywhere.

Testimonials

“Luca and Luna have a new confidence and are excited to practice their commands every day. They are totally different pups! Our experience with Roberta and Nebraska Dog Trainers has been wonderful from the beginning. We highly recommend them!”
– Luca & Luna

“Our pup Boomer (6 months) didn’t listen to anything and we didn’t have the time to properly train him. Now we have a dog who listens and is pleasant to walk! And if he acts up we know how to encourage different behavior. We really appreciate all the help and can’t thank you enough!!”
– Boomer

“Our dog is now calm and controlled when he needs to be and our family is enjoying him so much more. On pickup day Liz took so much time going over everything we needed to know and making sure we were comfortable giving the commands. Would give 10 stars if we could! Beyond happy with the results.”
– Bosco
