Training/ teaching is both an art and a science . Our training is based on knowledge of the laws of conditioning and the function of hormones and neurotransmitters in processing the information .

In plain english : we train in operant conditioning with positive reinforcement . We never enter in conflict with our dogs , but push the conflict to the dog 's side and funnel them into the solution where they get what they are after . No time is lost in trial and error : learning mistakes is still learning ... the wrong answer!

The result is an active thinking dog who likes his job , instead of a reactive one who "learned" how to avoid coercion , which always ends in escape once the dog’s figure out how an avoidance functions.

Hence our dogs are trustworthy : the core of special forces.
