Compassionate Effective Training

that solves behavior at it's root

While obedience can provide short term solutions to behavior problems, it does not solve the root reason of why your dog behaves the way they do. It also means you will be training and managing your reactive dog for the rest of their life!

Dogs think, then feel, then act out a behavior. 

When we can change how a dog thinks and feels we can change how they behave for long lasting results -

so that you don't have to micro-manage your dog for the rest of their life! 

This is the basic premise of Training Between the Ears Training (TBTE)

​

We address your dog's emotional state, and teach them how to manage stress more resourcefully using positive reinforcement, touch facilitated relaxation techniques, perception modification,

and stress release methods.

When your dog learns how to manage themselves you no longer need obedience,

and you get to take a break from being trainer!

For specific behaviors you want to teach, we will still use obedience as a tool, but the point is you wont need it to handle your dog's behavior problems.

Obedience training focuses more on teaching your dog something specific like recall or heeling, rather than teaching your dog to feel differently about something they are fearful or distressed about. 

Bring more peace, understanding, and joy to your life and your dog's with TBTE!
