WHY CHOOSE A FEAR/FORCE FREE TRAINER?

Because of science of course!

It has been proven that using aversive training tools/methods (shock/prong collars, physically hitting) has caused damage to dogs over a period of time. Both Mental and Physical.

Fear/Force free trainer's take into consideration not only physical well-being but also mental.

Here are some articles on why aversive do more harm than good.

ABOUT OWNER/TRAINER

Growing up Miranda has always had a passion for animals. She knew there was more behind dog training besides teaching dogs basic cues and wanted to learn more. Doing so she found a dog training apprenticeship a few years ago and has now recently opened her own business! Miranda is currently part of the CATCH-Academy for Trainers working towards her dog training certification (CCDT) and soon her Fear Free Certification. Miranda thrives on educating herself with the latest training methods and will always be continuing her education. Her hobbies include, hiking with her dog Theo, learning about nature, fishing and is currently an Zoo Atlanta Volunteer hoping to one day train animals in conversations for medical examinations and educate the general public on why zoos/aquariums are so important to us!
