About this Episode

It all comes down to methods, personality, and certifications. You deserve a nice trainer, and I view a nice trainer as:

  • Actively listening. This means asking questions and hearing you without jumping to respond.
  • Acknowledging the good things you’ve done with your dog and the hard work that you’ve put in so far.
  • Finding a method that works for you and your dog.
  • Explaining what they’re doing, why they’re doing it, and showing you how to do it.
  • Exercising appropriate boundaries.
