Motivating Canine AVS and IAABC Accredited Dog Trainer. Fear Free Certified Trainer. Certified Family Dog Mediator

Motivating Canine offers a range of 1 to 1 private Fear Free training services to help your furkid. Apart from general dog training, Motivating Canine specialises in attending to rescued dogs of all ages through motivational techniques. These techniques use rewards and positive reinforcement to mould a dog's behaviour, rather than fear and punishment. Our Trainer Jennifer is IAABC Accredited Dog Trainer, AVS Accredited Dog Trainer, Fear Free Certified Professional Trainer, Certified Family Dog Mediator. Being a member of IAABC, members are to adhere to the use of LIMA, also known as least intrusive, minimally aversive training methods. This means creating training plans with the most humane and effective training methods that are most likely to succeed in the training or behavior change. LIMA does not justify the use of punishment in lieu of other effective interventions and strategies. In the vast majority of behavior cases, desired behavior change can be affected by focusing on the animal’s environment, physical well-being, and operant and classical interventions such as differential reinforcement of an alternative behavior, desensitization, and counter-conditioning. Motivating Canine understands the possible worries, stresses or frustrations that resulted from the dog's behavioural issues. The goal for Motivating Canine is to help dog owners and their dogs build a healthier long-term relationship with better understanding, trust and bond through motivation, positive association, fear free and reward base training methods.

What a transformation! Autumn the Cavapoo and Coffee the Cockapoo went from keeping a cautious distance at the start of our first session to showering us with affection and not wanting us to leave!

Our focus with Autumn and Coffee's family will be addressing two main goals: helping Autumn manage her habit of bark excitedly at dogs passing by the balcony, and working through Coffee’s resource guarding around his food, bowl, and toys.

Because resource guarding carries a higher risk of bite incidents, we prioritized a resource guarding prevention protocol right away. The results were amazing. By the end of the session, Coffee went from growling and snapping when someone approached his bowl to eagerly looking forward to his pawrents walking over!

We are so excited to support this wonderful family on their training journey!

Congratulations to Coco for completing her Project ADORE Programme! Coco is a true survivor who made it through a fall from height. Despite the odds and euthanasia recommendation from the vet, Coco proved everyone wrong and resumed mobility. With great blessings, she landed herself in an amazing foster home with loving and patient humans that helped her through her recovery. They eventually decided that they would like to officially adopt Coco. Stay healthy Coco. Continue to be a fighter!

Bailey impressed her pawrents during her outdoor confidence-building session. We switched Bailey to a longer leash and guided her mummy on long-leash management to encourage decompression walks through loose-leash handling.

To support a gradual, bell-curved arousal cycle, we started and ended the session with intensive nosework using Bailey’s favorite snuffle mat.

Thanks to her mummy’s diligent efforts on her homework, Bailey was able to stroll through the park with no reactivity at all. Instead, she calmly observed her environment and stayed engaged with her mummy. This was a huge contrast to her past walks, where Bailey would pull in panic and loudly vocalize her fear at almost anything bigger than her.

Confidence building is a true team effort. We are so glad that Bailey’s mummy is so patient and determined to help her. While building confidence takes time, we are certain Bailey will continue to progress alongside her pawrents.

Big welcome to Coco and her pawrents who has joined us for her Project ADORE Programme!

On a typical day, Bailey reacts strongly to auditory triggers such as traffic, construction noise, garbage trucks, and screaming children, as well as visual triggers like pedestrians, cyclists, shopping trolleys, etc. The overwhelming stress will lead to her pulling hard on the leash to rush home.

The goal of our outdoor session is to help her navigate these triggers by building positive associations and encouraging decompression walks focused on sniffing.
