Description: What makes Lisa unique is her experience with dogs and people. Lisa worked as a registered nurse in the field of oncology and bone marrow transplant for many years in large teaching hospitals including the University of Rochester in New York, Shands Hospital at the University of Florida, and the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. The ability to communicate effectively with caring, compassion and knowledge were an integral part of her job. She brings that expertise to her profession as a dog trainer, coaching and training dogs and their owners. At Good Dog! Training, all obedience training, manners training, behavior modification, puppy training and working with the human end of the leash is done force-free and without intimidation. You and your dog will be willing and eager participants in the process. Learning based on behavioral science, of which positive reinforcement is a component, has been studied for over 65 years. Reinforcement is a consequence that causes a behavior to occur with greater frequency. For example if a dog sits and then receives a reward such as a tasty treat, a fun game of tug or chase with his owner, or an opportunity to go outside and chase a squirrel, the behavior of sitting will increase. Highly reinforcing a common behavior such as sitting is a simple way to decrease unwanted behaviors such as jumping or charging through an open door or gate. The behavior of sitting quietly is simply incompatible with the behavior you don’t want (jumping or running through doors)! Modern, science based methods of dog training are used by knowledgeable and effective trainers worldwide. Unfortunately, some trainers and dog owners are still holding onto outdated methods that are fraught with side effects and fall-out. Science has shown that the use of punishment in dog training, even something as simple as scolding your dog with a stern “NO” can increase anxiety, attempts at avoidance or escape from the trainer, aggression, and even fear of things that are associated with being punished, such as the person doing the punishing, the room they are in, and anything or anybody the dog sees or hears during the unpleasant events. Punishment often results in a dog that responds to requests from the owner out of fear or intimidation. Thankfully, a skilled trainer can easily show you how to use modern, fun, practical and efficient training to teach your dog to become the great companion you’ve always dreamed of, or change behaviors you don’t
