Dog Training Methodology
Methods:
- ✓ primarily positive with mild corrections
Positive Response Dog Training offers a variety of services tailored to a dog’s needs, including virtual lessons and in-home training with a 1-1 customized approach. Their programs include Puppy Training, Basic Obedience, Advanced Obedience, Behavioral Problem Solving, and Service Dog Training and Certification.
Puppy training focuses on house breaking, socialization, environmental conditioning, and foundational obedience to develop a strong bond and provide mental and physical challenges. Basic Obedience covers essential commands such as place, stay, down, sit, and come, and addresses issues like jumping on people or furniture, begging for food, and dropping items on command.
Upon completion of Basic Obedience, dogs can advance to Advanced Obedience, where commands are executed with real-world distractions and off-leash control. Behavioral Problem Solving addresses common issues including barking, chewing, digging, phobias, hysterical behavior, front door frenzy, house soiling, begging, chasing, excessive territorial aggression, jumping, biting, aggression, and separation anxiety. Some testimonials mention a 2-week training program.

Testimonials
“We rescued Dixon from a shelter in October 2018. Dixon is a 5-year-old German Shepard/Golden retriever mix.”

“Mr. Jim trained my dog Wyatt in his 2 week training program. Prior to training Wyatt was afraid of all people and dogs. He would shriek when on leash due to his fear of everything and pull the entire time so it was impossible to take him for a walk.”
– Amanda Isabella
“As a first time dog owner, I had no idea how to control our 9 month old Labrador Retriever. We sent May to train with Jim Kailen for 2 weeks to learn how to behave better.”
– Eileen
