In A Nutshell
We are an all volunteer organization, with a rigid policy of no force, no fear, no pain, and no harm ethics. If you own a Guardian breed as your companion with unwanted behavior, then you probably know what stress is. Since we are a public charity, you won't have money related concerns here, so put your mind at ease, we don't do this for the money, we do this for the dogs. We do accept donations. We are working to obtain our 501(c)(3) status, but as of now, we do not have it, so if you donate, it will not be tax deductible yet. With shelters and rescues around the country overwhelmed with dogs, we want to do our part. We offer no cost, professional force free training and behavior services, with focus on those that don't have the means to pay a professional trainer. We have a fund to help cover the costs if we need to refer you to a paid professional. That account is funded by the public donations.
Help Us Keep Helping
Similar to a rescue, we survive on donations too. When you donate, we keep it in a fund, so if we need to refer someone to an approved force free trainer, the fund will pay for it. Your generous donation will fund our mission. We are working to obtain our 501(c)(3) status, but as of now, we do not have it, so if you donate, it will not be tax deductible yet.
Force free Training
How do we stop this kind of behavior with a dog this size? We stop the intention, before the action, without saying a word.
Just fold your arms and turn your head BEFORE he jumps on you. If or when he sits, then reward the sit. He will quickly learn to sit instead of jump. That is an example of force free training
This is Koda. He's been blamed for almost everything. Don't blame your dog for unwanted behavior that you may have taught him.
