Kelly Vaillancourt believes in building a strong bond between humans and their dogs through positive reinforcement. She uses humane, scientific training methods that focus on encouragement and a positive feedback loop. She avoids punishment, intimidation, or aversive training tools like prong, shock, or choke collars.
