Wylde Pups offers gentle dog training and lure coursing, providing private lessons and group classes for foundation skills in agility and life as well as lure coursing for all dogs.
The certifications include being a Certified Training Partner of the Karen Pryor Academy (KPA CTP) and graduating with distinction from the Dog Trainer Program in 2009.
The training philosophy focuses on rewarding desired behaviors and ignoring those that are undesired, utilizing positive reinforcement to encourage repeated positive behaviors.
Emphasis is placed on making the learning process fun for the dog.
The training equipment used comprises a flat collar, head halter, body harness, clicker or other event marker, agility equipment, lure coursing equipment, flirt pole, tug toys, and tasty treats.
The services are available in the Southern Tier and Central New York, Northern Tier of Pennsylvania, as well as the Finger Lakes Region of New York.
Additionally, lure coursing events can be arranged within a three-hour drive of Binghamton, NY.
The trainer uses a clicker (or other event marker) to teach new behaviors and address behavioral issues, while encouraging clients to have an enjoyable training experience with their dogs.
Lure coursing, originally designed for sighthounds, is also offered to all dogs.
The sport involves a plastic bag attached to a line, which is pulled around a field by a motor, with the dog in pursuit.
Courses for lure coursing are set up in various locations in southern and central New York.
For those interested in booking a lure coursing event for their group, they are encouraged to contact Wylde Pups.
