NYC Dreamdogs

Philosophy and Methods


Philosophy


The philosophy here at NYC Dreamdogs is that training is a way of life. Dog training is a tool to address any given situation that may come up between the owner and the dog throughout the day. It is a way of maintaining a certain level of balance and calm whether you are relaxing at home, taking a walk around the block, or paying a visit to the vet's office.

Training is more than just commands that are soon forgotten after a practice session, but rather a set of amazing tools to achieve the incredible task of introducing an animal into the human world and communicating directly with him or her on a daily basis.

NYC Dreamdogs truly feels that proper training is the key to living a happy, fulfilling life with our beloved canine companions.

Methods


Successful dog training does not rely on one method alone. Every dog is an individual and therefore each one requires a unique approach. Factors that determine the style of training include, but are not limited to, your dog's age, breed, personality, and upbringing.

The one characteristic that all methods have in common is that they are based on motivation. Discovering what motivates your dog to do what is expected of them in all of life's circumstances is at the core of real dog training.
