Dog Training Services
For over 10 years, Barks & Recreation Family Dog Services has been helping families better understand and eliminate their dog’s unwanted behaviors WITHOUT using any harsh compulsion techniques (which use pain and fear of pain to achieve the desired results... such as choke and prong collars, shock collars or quick painful leash corrections).
Barks & Recreation offers a FREE meet and greet consultation and assessment to every new client. This allows us to see the who, what, why, where and when of the problem. We show you how to more effectively communicate with your dog using all positive reinforcement and leadership exercises. We teach you about timing, voice control, inflection, and consistency. Our approach uses and builds trust and gets a much more lasting result because it is all Positive!
