When Dog
Training Backfires

Using the wrong training methods can harm both you and your dog. Punishment-based approaches, like dominance training, can increase anxiety, fear, and aggression, worsening behavior over time. They also damage trust, making it harder for your dog to respond to commands.

Our dog training program in Rio Rancho uses positive reinforcement to create a safe and supportive environment, helping your dog build confidence and strengthening the bond between you both.

Positive Reinforcement Dog Training in Rio Rancho

Positive reinforcement training builds a strong, lasting bond with your dog by focusing on rewards and praise instead of punishment. This approach helps your dog learn faster and with less stress. It creates a positive training experience for both you and your dog, strengthening trust and respect.

Very good dog training. The dogs have progressed quite far and he gave us the skills to keep them learning new behaviors. I was very happy with the in-home training and how he fit it into our schedule. I looked at four different trainers before selecting Paul and am glad I chose him. If you need dog training then this is the place to get it.

I have nothing but great things to say about Good Buddy Dog Training. I’ve tried working with other trainers and they kinda made me feel like my dog was a lost cause. I started working with Paul and OMG can I see a difference in my pup. The instructions are simple to follow and Paul was really great to work with. I recommend Good Buddy Dog Training to any and everyone I know looking for a dog trainer.
