Frequently Asked Questions

Is my pet too old to be trained?

Every dog has the capacity to learn new skills, providing they are healthy, happy and comfortable.

What is your approach to pet training?

Our approach is reward based, focusing on clear and consistent training with a positive mental attitude.
We like to describe South Coast Dog Training as 'balanced training', as we believe you should be able to let your dog know when they have displeased you aswell as when they have succeeded in an exercise. The use of 'no', or other verbal cues has its place when used correctly. We NEVER advocate the use of aversive methods.
