Our Ethos
Kind, Fair, Effective... & Fun!
I am strongly committed to employing only kind, fair & effective, non-coercive, training techniques, based on modern scientific studies of how dogs learn.
We want all dogs to learn without the use of force, fear or intimidation.
We therefore do not condone the use of choke chains, prong, shock or spray collars, rattle bottles, pet correctors, shouting or physical punishment.
Kinder, reward based methods are used to ensure reliable long term results.
Our Principles
At Black Diamond Dog Training we believe that everything a dog does is for a reason. To us humans, certain things may seem pointless, but for your dog there will always be a purpose.
Our aim is to help you to see the world from their point of view & to discover why they do the things they do... things which may not always seem appropriate to us!
If we understand why something is happening we are better equipped to guide the dog into making better choices.
Through all of our training we also put an emphasis on having fun & building the relationship between you & your dog.
We believe that a strong relationship with good communication is the basis of successful training.
