How does it work?
NEW!
Step 1: You and your trainer meet to discuss your training goals.
*This can be with a Private Lesson or through a Day Camp Package.
Step 2: You and your trainer create custom lessons based on those goals.
*Maybe those lessons include:
- A structured walk, learning loose leash walking with distractions,
- A training session in a local park focusing on the basics with distractions and duration,
- A training session in your home so you dog can build the foundations of the basics without any distractions, while you work from home or even while you're away!

WHY CULTIVATED CANINE?
At Cultivated Canine Dog Training, we teach humans to speak dog through the science-based behavior intervention policy of LIMA or "Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive."
​
According to the CCPDT, "LIMA requires trainers/consultants to work to increase the use of positive reinforcement and eliminate the use of punishment when working with animal and human clients. In order to ensure best practices, consultants should pursue and maintain competence in animal behavior consulting and training through continuing education, and hands-on experience."
​
We are in agreement with the CCPDT, that "positive reinforcement should be the first line of teaching, training, and behavior change program considered, and should be applied consistently."
​
What is positive reinforcement? Positive reinforcement training uses a reward, such as treats, praise, or anything your dog finds rewarding, to teach or reinforce desired behaviors.
​
​
​
Why positive reinforcement? The reward, whatever it might be, makes your dog more likely to repeat the desired behavior, making positive reinforcement a powerful tool for shaping or changing your dog’s behavior.
​
WHat Gets rewarded, GETS repeated
