Many dogs experience optimal learning in a familiar setting with low distractions. Maybe you have a new puppy and would like to begin basic manners or Puppy Head Start at home so that group classes are more likely to be successful. Perhaps your dog is exhibiting behaviors that are specific to the home environment and are best dealt with in that context. If you feel this may be a good fit for you, schedule a free courtesy call and we can discuss your situation in greater detail. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6044ebe81f30ca56280b023b/1615823670054-POOM7OGUILFC32GMOJT0/43CE27FC-409D-4E1D-A7EE-C113D5A9D31D_1_201_a.jpeg Services - Canine Enrichment Every dog can benefit from an enrichment protocol.

At Incredible Canines, we believe that choice-based learning is beneficial to the dog/human relationship because it builds and promotes trust in ways that other methods cannot. When you give your dog a choice, you are telling him that he has the freedom to choose not to participate in something that is scary or unpleasant. This may sound counterintuitive, but think about the many choices we make each day. What if your life was micromanaged to the point you had little or no control over even the smallest aspect? Our dogs depend on us to guide and coach them through a sometimes scary and confusing world. Our job is to provide structure in a way that helps our dogs make sense of the environment in order to feel safe and confident. It’s not about control. It’s about helping them learn by providing clear information, teaching and marking behaviors, motivating and reinforcing them in ways that promote active engagement. Force has no place in a healthy relationship. https://www.getincrediblecanines.com/new-page daily 0.75 2024-06-21 https://www.getincrediblecanines.com/new-page-1 daily 0.75 2025-04-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6044ebe81f30ca56280b023b/1618494725984-3DEW8XS0AR9IQYKOPH3H/B9278EE6-D1EC-41B1-89AB-388FB12A18C9_1_201_a.jpeg Puppy Prep Program Puppy Prep Program (Sitting is Overrated) So you’re getting a puppy! This is an exciting and busy time. You’re picking out names, puppy-proofing the house, getting the equipment, food, toys, treats and all the other goodies you will need for your new family member. You’ve thought of it all, pick-up day is coming and you’re excited, nervous, and a little apprehensive of what to expect. The fact is, raising a puppy is hard work! Maybe it’s been a few years since you had a puppy and you would like a bit of guidance to start off on the right foot. Puppies have a short window of time to safely expose them to novel things. This is called the critical developmental period and it lasts from about 5-16 weeks. This period is extremely important! True socialization occurs within this time frame. This is the time to introduce your puppy to new sights, sounds, surfaces, and experiences. Think of what you do during this time as a sort of ‘stress inoculation’. Just like the other shots your pup needs during this window of time, careful and appropriate exposure to new things can help your pup better handle potentially stressful things later in life with more confidence and self-assurance. Our Puppy Prep Program goes beyond the usual kindergarten-style class. We introduce real-life skills that focus heavily on building a relationship with your puppy, helping him navigate the complex and potentially scary world in which he has found himself. The world can be overwhelming, but with you, his beloved and trusted human, by his side the world doesn’t have to be such a scary place. Set yourself and your puppy up for success with our Puppy Prep Program! https://www.getincrediblecanines.com/new-page-3 daily 0.75 2024-06-21 https://www.getincrediblecanines.com/store-1 daily 0.75 2021-04-15
