Frequently Asked Questions

The time it takes to train a dog varies based on age, breed, temperament, past experiences, and specific training goals. While every dog is different, remember that training is a continuous journey. With consistent practice, patience, and reinforcement, your dog will keep learning and adapting throughout their life.

Positive reinforcement means encouraging desired behaviors by reinforcing them with something the dog values—whether that’s praise, treats, toys, or play. When dogs experience positive outcomes for their actions, they’re motivated to repeat those behaviors. This process builds trust, cooperation, and clear communication between dogs and their caregivers.
At PAW PAW Dog Training & Behavior, we believe in the power of positive reinforcement to build strong, trusting relationships with dogs. Here’s why it’s more effective than aversive tactics or other quadrants of behavior modification, and how it helps dogs thrive without fear or emotional harm.
