I have a 21/2 year old golden retriever. She is a blessing and such a good pet.
We are working with her on not jumping and listening. Learned that non verbal commands are better than verbal and by giving Stella a job to do it does distract her from doing negative behaviors

The free introductory video offered is clear and provides excellent mini videos to make their points, even for someone with little to no previous training experience.

A 3 year old dog's learning journey
January 23, 2024

Using just a little of the suggestions for training my dog; she is already responding like I want her to. She doesn't pull on the leash every time (like she used to); she sits when commanded, but staying needs work.
