NURTURING WELL-BEHAVED PETS IN OUR CANINE GARDEN.
Through our gentle guidance and dedication to positive reinforcement techniques, we seek to empower both dogs and their owners to communicate effectively, build trust, and strengthen their bond. Our garden of training embodies the beauty of nature's principles, where patience, kindness, and mutual respect flourish.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Empowering Paws, Enriching Lives: Where Positive Training Unleashes Potential.
Welcome to our canine haven, where we believe in the power of positive training to transform lives. At our training center, we're dedicated to nurturing your dog's potential through gentle, rewarding methods that foster trust and cooperation. Join us as we embark on a journey of empowerment, enrichment, and joyful companionship, where every paw step leads to a brighter, more fulfilling bond.
Through gentle, positive reinforcement, we cultivate flourishing bonds and empower dogs to thrive in a supportive and non-coercive environment."
At our greenhouse we are a positive reward-based dog training company, we are committed to creating a flourishing environment for dogs and their owners, guided by the principles of positivity, respect, and compassion. Our philosophy aligns seamlessly with the Least Invasive Minimally Aversive (LIMA) approach, ensuring that every training session is conducted with the utmost consideration for the well-being and individuality of each canine companion.
Embracing LIMA means we prioritize positive reinforcement techniques, avoiding physical corrections, punitive measures, or the use of aversive tools such as choke/prong/shock collars. Instead, we focus on fostering a connection built on trust, encouragement, and understanding. This approach not only contributes to effective learning but also promotes a positive and joyful training experience for both dogs and their owners.
In our garden oasis, dogs are not only taught commands but are encouraged to make choices, express themselves, and learn in a supportive and non-coercive atmosphere. Celebrating small victories and progress aligns with the LIMA approach, ensuring that our training methods not only produce well-mannered dogs but also enhance their overall happiness and confidence.
Our commitment to staying informed about the latest scientific insights into canine behavior reflects the essence of LIMA. By continuously educating ourselves, we ensure that our training methodologies remain modern, ethical, and in tune with the evolving understanding of dog behavior.
Ultimately, our garden is based of positive rewards, striving to create a haven where dogs blossom into their best selves, forging lasting bonds with their owners based on trust, positive reinforcement, and a shared love for lifelong learning.
ALEXANDRIA JETT
DOG TRAINER/OWNER
MEET THE TEAM
I have been immersed in professional reward-based dog training since 2017, engaging in both group classes and private lessons to nurture positive behaviors in dogs. In 2019, I seized the invaluable opportunity to shadow a seasoned mentor, delving into the realm of behavior modification, particularly addressing issues like dog/human reactivity and aggression. This experience broadened my horizons, introducing me to the dynamic world of dog sports. I had the privilege of teaching swimming and dock diving classes, fostering an active lifestyle for our furry companions and their families. Additionally, I explored disciplines such as BarnHunt, Agility, and Rally Dog Training, further enriching my understanding of canine behavior and training methodologies.
Transitioning into a leadership role, I spearheaded the development of a dedicated dog training department at a small business. In 2021, I proudly earned certification as an AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Evaluator, further solidifying my commitment to canine welfare and training excellence. The American Kennel Club opened doors to a myriad of sports, igniting my passion for Trick Training, FastCat, Temperament Testing, Fit Dog, and beyond. I look forward to continuing my education within the dog training world with becoming a certified CCPDT trainer. My journey in dog training continues to evolve, driven by a profound love for dogs and an unwavering dedication to their well-being and enrichment.
