Bonza Canine Education focuses on positive reinforcement training methods, such as ‘lure & reward', and clicker training.
This creates a mind-set of always looking for the good in your dog, and promotes an atmosphere of trust, affection, and respect for your furry family members. While it's true that in any relationship there needs to be a leader, this doesn't mean we need to be obsessed with “showing who's boss.” We can be an effective ‘leader of the pack' by showing patience, love, and understanding for the individual animal.
A well trained dog is happy, confident, secure, and a joy to be around.
Training should be fun. If you aren't enjoying the experience, your motivation will be low. And if your dog isn't enjoying the experience, his motivation will be non-existent. But if you're both having fun, you won't want to stop!
Why use “Bonza”?
Bonza is Australian slang, meaning ‘ excellent, attractive, or pleasing'. (For example, ‘San Diego is a bonza place!') The goal of our canine education program is to offer BONZA services.
| The American Humane Association's Guide to Humane Dog Training states, “By focusing on a dog's pleasure as a motivation for obeying, you build a far more reliable response than with fear – with the added bonus of your dog learning to trust you. And trust leads to greater willingness on your dog's part to offer new behaviors, making training easier for both of you. Trust also builds the foundation for a stronger, lifelong bond of affection and respect between you and your canine family member.” |
