​

​Training Agreements​

​

• You believe in working with a dog training and behavior professional who isn't just good with dogs but also prioritizes continuing education and uses evidence-based training methods to prioritize behavioral health for dogs and compassionate work with humans.

• You don't want to train your dog using methods that involve pain, discomfort, threat, yelling, hitting, or intimidation of any kind, and if you've done so in the past, you are ready to make a change. We agree not to use aversive tools such as prong/pinch collars, choke collars, shock (e-, stim, educator) collars, slip leads, leash pops, bonkers, chain bags, penny cans, sprayed water, compressed air, and ultrasonic sound. ​​

• You understand that Tanzi finds shock fences detrimental to dogs' behavior and quality of life, particularly if they are experiencing fear, anxiety, phobia, reactivity, or stranger danger. You are open to exploring alternatives. (Puppies and dogs without those issues often have them after these fences are installed.)

• You seek out appropriate veterinary expertise when your dog exhibits pain, itching, anxiety, fear, or phobia that prevents it from having a good quality of life, including learning and retaining information. You are also open to learning more about the appropriate use of medication to improve physical and mental health when recommended.
