Welcome to thinkpawsitive.net

Janet Skinner founded Think Pawsitive! Dog Training because she wanted to bring positive, reward-based dog and puppy training classes into the community where people and their four-legged friends live.

Dog training has changed a lot over the years. Janet is proud to be part of the growing trend toward more positive, dog-friendly training methods. Using reward-based training techniques based on scientific principles of learning and behavior, Janet will show you how to effectively communicate with your best friend and provide him with the feedback he needs to understand exactly what you expect of him.

Janet also teaches how to use all the wonderful things that you are already doing for your dog – petting, feeding, playing – as training rewards to reinforce desirable behaviors and to eliminate undesirable ones. You will also learn how proper management of your dog’s environment can mean the difference between a dog who consistently misbehaves and a dog who is a joy to have around.

And in the process, you will have fun -- and form a strong, caring bond with your dog that will last a lifetime!

If you find yourself saying “NO!” to your dog all of the time, it’s time to Think Pawsitive!

Don’t wait -- sign up today for a class with Think Pawsitive!
