Our Dog Training Tampa

At Courteous Canine, Inc. DogSmith of Tampa our motto is «Results the Fun Way!»

We believe that all training should strengthen the bond between the dog and the owner. That means that, rather than using fear or intimidation to train the dog, we use positive reinforcement, games and fun! This approach is just as effective, if not more so, than the punishing alternatives, and it builds the trust that is so important in the life of a family pet.

Empowerment Training

Florida Dog Obedience Agility TrainingEmpowerment training is our preferred method of training. Empowerment Training uses positive reinforcement to change dog behavior by addressing your dog’s emotions. Fearful dogs become confident. Angry dogs become calm. Shy dogs become relaxed.
