Dynamic Canines
At Dynamic Canines we train with positive reinforcement and reward base training. We also consider ourselves LIMA trainers (Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive). This means that we are able to adapt to what each individual family needs, and what each owner is comfortable with.
Overall, Dynamic Canines is here to help you build healthy and sustainable friendships with your furry friends that revolve around love and communication.
