| Our experienced, trained professionals offer small group and private dog training classes based on trust and respect, starting with our gentle PuppyLove sessions for puppies under 18 weeks old (it's easier -- and less expensive -- to prevent problems rather than fix them later and our Basic Manners program for older pups and adult dogs.). Many of our methods are based on those of Dr. Ian Dunbar, and clicker training methods we learned from Karen Pryor & Gary Wilkes P.J. Lacette of Best Paw Forward, Inc. has been named to the faculty of the Karen Pryor Academy. KarenPryorAcademy.com The program for experienced dog trainers began taking applications early in May 2007. Participants have take on-line courses augmented by workshops around the country. Florida workshops are at Best Paw Forward in Sanford, Florida. We were very fortunate to have attended some of Ian's first Florida programs more than 20 years ago. When he created the Association for Pet Dog Trainers, we became some of the earliest charter members. At the second annual APDT educational conference, held in Chicago in 1995, we also became clicker trainers after watching Karen, Gary and Sue Sternberg demonstrate this powerful, fun training too. We host the longest-running group clicker classes in the southeast U.S. Most of our classes are limited to ensure lots of individual attention. Daytime, evening and weekend sessions are available at our air-conditioned training center. Private Consultations Available by Appointment Daytime and evening sessions, indoors, for Agility Concepts, Conformation and Obedience Competition are available for dogs with obedience or behavior training background. Speakers on dog-related topics are available for school, professional and civic group programs. If your friends are considering getting a puppy or an adult dog, we will be glad to suggest breeds best suited to their households, and discuss the various merits of puppies vs. adult dogs. Our staff can also help them find reputable breeders or offer tips on how to select appropriate pets from shelters and breed rescue groups |
