TRAINING RESOURCES
At the Humane Society of Boulder Valley Training and Behavior Center, our training methods focus exclusively on positive reinforcement, helping to strengthen the relationship between guardian and dog.  We use many types of rewards to encourage appropriate behavior, including yummy treats, playtime with toys, and access to the great outdoors for walks.  We believe this is the most efficient method for teaching polite behavior and ensures a successful relationship between you and your canine companion.  After all, training should be a fun and rewarding experience for both of you!
