Three Dog Training offers positive and enjoyable in-home training tailored to suit the unique needs of both the dog and its owner. The training is customized and includes enrichment and behavior assessments.
Lisa Forbes, the trainer, emphasizes a philosophy of fun and positive reinforcement, aiming to build a strong lifelong bond between the dog and the family. The approach involves using treats and praise for reinforcement and focuses on teaching manners for the family dog rather than traditional obedience training.
Three Dog Training serves Southern New Hampshire and most of Massachusetts. Lisa Forbes, a seasoned dog trainer, specializes in helping families who have adopted or rescued dogs and are facing issues such as separation anxiety, fear, and aggression. She aims to guide families in making the right choice when adopting a dog to ensure a successful and fulfilling experience.
Lisa’s approach involves:
- Understanding the family’s needs and lifestyle to identify the most suitable dog breeds.
- Discussing adoption options from local shelters, rescue groups, and online resources.
- Providing guidance on important questions to ask when adopting a dog.
- Assisting in interpreting behavior assessments and terms to help families understand their new dog better.
