The Professional Pet Services Training Philosophy

The PPS approach is a very natural one. We communicate with dogs in their own language- limited treats or leash. They respond well to calm, confident leadership and we use our body language & facial expressions to get them to understand & obey. We teach you how to do the same.

Your goal should be for your dog to "follow" you, literally. To accomplish this, you need to lead. By walking your dog at the start of EVERY DAY in follower mode, you tell him every day he is to follow you. This sets the tone for the day, reminding him you are in charge & he needs to tune into you. Once you learn how to properly walk your dog, your dog will be more focused on you. He will be more "mindful" of you, constantly checking in to make sure his leader approves of his behavior. By doing this alone, you will find his bond with you & focus on you much stronger. You will be far more effective in ridding him of unwanted behavior. Yes, it is that easy.

Once your dog is in this "follower" state of mind, you can work on any social issue too. Unlimited socialization is included with your training. NO MATTER WHAT AGE YOUR DOG IS OR HOW AGGRESSIVE, he wants to become stable again- AND HE CAN with the proper guidance.
