Buddy Rhodes Presents…
FORCE-FREE, INTUITIVE
BEHAVIORAL DOG TRAINING
in NYC
If you’re looking to have a happy, healthy dog (or dogs) that will also listen to you, I’m here to help…
My philosophy in brief: If YOU understand dog behaviors, body language, & the needs of the breed — and utilize proper POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT — your everyday interactions will give you a calmer, happier dog. And a happier PUP means a happier YOU!
What is a happy dog? One that’s calm, listens to cues/commands, and is more fun to spoil and play with!
NOTE: Are you here cuz we met on street & I helped you w/your dog? That’s great! If you don’t need training b/c we went over everything, let me know via the contact form, & please donate to this Dog Rescue as a thx!
WHY OTHER TRAINING… BITES!:
FORCE dogs to listen? Cesar the “dog whisperer” & “Alpha-ing,” just increase anxiety! Old-school trainers/classes teach tricks w/out RESOLVING issues. When dogs ENJOY baths, taking meds, & so on, and TRUST you, it rids your pup of aggression, anxiety, pulling, etc. ALL with POSITIVITY!
HISTORY:
My 1st dog, Buddy Rhodes, was a big mutt I FOUND on a freezing night. He was… PROBLEMATIC. Two trainers & then a behaviorist, all w/a combined 50+ years of experience, said “He’s not trainable.” So I studied: DOG BODY language, habits, NEEDS; I read PhD dissertations; learned BREED Training, NATURAL Training, & MORE!
ONE Training Session and you’re DONE!
Well, done with ME anyway. . .
No, your dog will NOT be trained in ONE session, silly! That’d be ridiculous! =)
Positive Techniques and Intuitive Behavioral Training methods do NOT mean overnight success — there’s NO magic pill. This takes TIME. (Generally 3 to 6 months for training to “imprint”), but you’ll see a difference IMMEDIATELY!
Pet owners who follow the techniques I teach have had 100% success! Even with stubborn Bull Dogs, Rescues with trauma, Pit Bulls from FIGHT RINGS, nervous pups, hunting dogs that you wish wouldn’t, & so on…
I teach interactions that change difficult behavior. You’ll better understand dog BODY LANGUAGE, what barking SIGNIFIES, timing for praise, etc. These and the other things you learn cure your dog of aggression, pulling, anxiety, and, over time, all your concerns…ensuring you have a truly HAPPY, PLAYFUL doggy!
We go over ALL of this in one sesh and can always do follow-ups (Honestly, in 12+ years of doing this, people who do the work never need them. I’ve only done follow-ups 3x). And you’ll have access to me by phone/text for as long as you need!
