My Best Buddy Dog Training

My Best Buddy Dog Training is a dog training business in Newnan, GA. Robin Sockness is a professional dog trainer and canine life coach with over 22 years of experience as a force-free trainer. Puppy Primer is a 60 to 90 minute private coaching session at the client's home, tailored for newly acquired dogs, and is best scheduled within a week or two of a dog's arrival at its new home. Puppy classes are offered in Peachtree City and Fayetteville, including an AKC Star Puppy class in Peachtree City and a fun-dation class on Saturdays in Fayetteville. Private coaching addresses behaviors such as house-training, jumping, and digging. Training at My Best Buddy is science-based, force-free, and built on positive reinforcement. Owners are taught to reward the behaviors they want and to manage or ignore behaviors they do not want, rather than relying on electric collars, choke chains, or prong collars. The approach is grounded in the science of how dogs learn and communicate, and the stated aim is a relationship based on respect and love rather than fear, pain, or intimidation. Robin grew up in a home where her parents rescued and rehabilitated dozens of dogs, and she has worked with animals her entire life. She is co-director of JCCARE, a Japanese Chin rescue group, and vice-president of St. Nick's Closet. She is a member of the Association of Pet Dog Professionals and the Pet Professional Guild. She and her husband Steve have three dogs: KiKu and Reo, Japanese Chins, and Misty, a Standard Poodle. KiKu is a retired registered therapy dog. My Best Buddy Dog Training holds a rating of 4.80 from the customers who have reviewed it. For Newnan dog owners, My Best Buddy Dog Training brings more than two decades of force-free training experience and a coaching approach built on positive reinforcement to the work of raising a puppy or retraining an older dog.
