Daphne's philosophy is about enjoying our dogs in better/healthier relationships using good leadership and positive training.                                        Training Philosophy

 

 

Why Training is a Necessity

Any dog no matter what breed, age or size can benefit from good leadership, house rules and boundaries, physical exercise and mental enrichment - training.
