Modern Dog Training

Dog training and behavior has evolved tremendously over the past 60 years.

Unfortunately, there is no single governing body or regulation on the profession of dog training and behavior.

Why does this matter? Since anyone can call themselves a dog trainer, anyone can select to use outdated methods that can cause your dog harm.

What is modern dog training? Modern. Humane. Ethical. Modern dog training is a commitment to choosing rewards-based methods that leverage what YOUR DOG loves to motivate them, rather than motivating them to comply because they’re scared or uncomfortable.

Results? Absolutely! From puppy basics to addressing resource guarding or bite cases there is no need to resort to dated methods. In fact, they can make matters worse!


No Prong.

No Shock.

No Intimidation.

No Alpha Rolls.

No Physical Corrections.


You don’t have to resort to tools and methods that are outdated and engender fear, pain or intimidation for compliance!
— Brilliant Dog!
