Group Class Isn’t The Answer: Why It Often Hurts More Than It Helps
In this episode, Kati Peppe, owner of Diamond Canine Dog Training in Biddeford, Maine, discusses effective dog training methods. She highlights the company’s focus on E-Collar training for off-leash obedience and behavior modifications. Kati explains the different training formats available, including private lessons and board-and-train programs, and outlines the reasons why Diamond K9 does not offer group classes. She emphasizes that group classes often lack the personalized feedback necessary to address individual dog behaviors effectively. Instead, Kati advocates for one-on-one training sessions that provide tailored tools and strategies to help dog owners achieve consistent and reliable obedience in various environments. Additionally, she stresses the importance of educating owners to ensure long-term success in managing their dogs’ behavior outside of training sessions.
