Positive Reinforcement Dog Training For Your Dog Logo

Praise and treats are the two main types of positive reinforcement for dogs. Praise can also include physical contact and affection like petting and snuggling your good boy after they follow a command or learn a new skill. Owners and trainers use a balanced combination of treats and praise.

Positive reinforcement can also be used to break bad habits. The Honest Kitchen Quickies are great training treats to keep on hand when training your dog. The key to teaching new commands is to speak clearly and always use the same phrase or command. Kendall Abbott got her bachelor's degree from the University of Kansas.
