Welcome to
the website of Canine Companions Dog
Training, located in Palatka, Florida.
Our Training Philosophy:
We feel that dog training should be
fun, entertaining and informative
for both humans and dogs. We Only
use Positive methods that guide both
you and your dog through a process
that builds mutual trust and
respect.
|
 |
|
|
 |
Our classes are limited in size,
offer excellent socialization
opportunities, and provide you the
skills you need to train your dog.
With steady but limited training
time at home you will be amazed at
the progress your dog makes!
Training without
using force is an empowering
choice for the learner and
the teacher.

Canine Companions Follows LIMA
Protocols
LIMA requires that trainers and behavior
consultants use the "least intrusive,
minimally aversive technique likely to
succeed in achieving a training [or
behavior change] objective with minimal
risk of producing adverse side
effects." It is also a competence
criterion, requiring that trainers and
behavior consultants be adequately
trained and skilled in order to ensure
that the least intrusive and aversive
procedure is in fact used.
LIMA requires that trainers/behavior
consultants work to increase the use of
positive reinforcement and lessen the
use of punishment in work with companion
animals and the humans who care for
them. LIMA protocols are designed to be
maximally humane to learners of all
species. In order to ensure best
practices, consultants/trainers should
pursue and maintain competence in animal
behavior consulting through education,
training, or supervised experience, and
should not advise on problems outside
the recognized boundaries of their
competencies and experience. |

Our Canine Good Citizen® Group
Classes:
Dogs who have a solid obedience
education are a joy to live with,
they respond well to household
routines, have good manners in the
presence of people and other dogs,
and they fully enjoy the company of
the owner who took the time to
provide training, intellectual
stimulation and a high quality of
life. We sincerely hope that the
Canine Good Citizen® program is only
the beginning for you and your dog
and that after your dog passes the CGC test you both will continue the
fun and challenges by participating
in other dog events such as
Obedience or Agility or Rally!
|
|
After you have completed the
training profile/class form…take
a minute…hug your dog…because
your dog does not know it yet
but you're both about to have a
LOT of fun together!
The AKC's Canine Good
Citizen® (CGC) Program is
rapidly becoming recognized as
the standard of behavior for
dogs in our communities. Canine
Good Citizen® resolutions have
been passed by 18 state
legislatures and the United
States Senate, insurance
companies are starting to use
CGC to insure breeds they would
not otherwise insure, and some
condominium associations around
the country now require that all
dogs in the complex have earned
the Canine Good Citizen® award.
Evaluators are screened by the
American Kennel Club, and once
approved are tested on their
program knowledge. Bob and
Kay are the AKC Canine Good
Citizen Evaluators in Putnam
County.
