At Hairy Tails Pet Education, LLC, the team firmly believes in the importance of effective communication between dog owners and their pets. They emphasize the need to convey desires and boundaries in a language that dogs can comprehend, as failure to do so often results in frustrated owners and unruly dogs.
The organization aligns with the principles of Suzanne Clothier’s ‘Relationship Centered Training,’ advocating for a relationship built on trust and mutual respect, rather than coercion or fear. More information about Suzanne Clothier and her work can be found at http://www.suzanneclothier.com.
The organization emphasizes that there are no shortcuts or quick fixes when it comes to fostering good canine behavior. They stress that cultivating a well-behaved canine companion demands time and effort, but it is a goal every dog owner should pursue.
At Hairy Tails, they believe that no dog is too old to learn new behaviors, and they encourage positive training experiences for young and mature dogs alike. Training a dog is made easier by understanding what the dog finds rewarding and utilizing their individual needs and desires to promote good behavior.
The organization highlights that behaviors such as digging, destructive chewing, and barking, often labeled as ‘problems’ by owners, are actually normal canine behaviors typically stemming from excessive energy, insufficient daily mental and physical exercise, and a lack of constructive outlets or activities.
