The energy you bring to training is the energy your dog will respond to.
Not all training is equal. As humans we can turn to running, weights, yoga, dancing, etc. There are so many routes we can take to encourage growth, development, improvement and to challenge ourselves. This is the same for dog training. There are many options such as forced training, punishment training, aversive training and then there is positive reinforcement training. This is the type of training you’ll find in the Salt and Pine dog training methods. The Salt and Pine method of dog training is based on the premise that grounded training leads to lasting connection. Salt represents the training challenges we as dog owners face. Pine for the rooted, but steady growth positive reinforcement training can accomplish. The Salt and Pine training method allows the dog to figure out what we want without adding too many words, negative responses or emotions. Each training module uses simple, grounded techniques and always builds a better and lasting connection with your dog. You’ll be surprised how quickly dogs will learn expectations and boundaries as well as enjoy training, no matter the age they begin. The old adage “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks,” is a falsehood that deprives both the dog and their family. Let’s take a look at the very first module in our training program. It not only solidifies the human to dog connection but can also be a life saving cue for your dog.
