How to Choose a Dog Trainer
Choosing a Dog Trainer
Did you know that the Dog Training Industry is an unregulated field? Anyone can call themselves a dog trainer without any knowledge of how to actually train your dog or how dogs learn.

Here at Dog Gone Right, we love dogs and that’s why we use humane, positive, scientific proven training methods. Your dog will learn with a normal collar on. No remote controls to shock your dog. No prong collars. No other gadgets.Positive training also works by teaching your dog to “think!” He will think of what you want so that he gets the reward. Aversive methods cause your dog to fear you and your dog is always worried about when the next jerk of the collar or shock will come. We love dogs too much to do those things.
