Positively Dog Training

Victoria Stilwell Positively Dog Trainer Wendy Dek can help with everything from basic obedience training to more extreme behavior problems. With a wealth of professional experience handling all types of dog behavior issues, Wendy has the experience, expertise, and compassion to help you and your dog without the use of force or punishment.  Wendy does not employ outdated and ultimately ineffective dominance-based methods.  She subscribes to the findings of modern behavioral science and uses only positive reinforcement and force free methods.  This ensures that you and your dog build a bond based on mutual trust, respect and love while providing the confident leadership needed to maintain harmony in your household.

What is Positive Reinforcement?
Wendy and Victoria Stilwell Positively Dog Training believes it is vitally important for owners to give their dogs the opportunities and the tools they need to live successfully in a human world.  A dog that is given consistent guidance from an early age grows up to be a confident dog.  Positive training results in a dog who follows an owner because it wants to rather than following out of fear. Traditional training uses punitive methods to force a dog to behave, often resulting in a "quick fix" that never truly identifies the root cause of the misbehavior and promotes insecurity.
