Teaching Your Dog How To Learn
The Touchpad
"We feel the touchpad is one of the most useful, if not the most useful behavior we can teach our dogs. For many of us, formal training begins with the touchpad. It has many practical aspects that are easy to transition into real life, as well as a multitude of uses with helping to create and maintain some of our other obedience behaviors."
-Ed Frawley- Leerburg
Payson Dog Training recommends that puppies be kept from areas where they can be inadvertently exposed to disease. This includes public parks and other such areas with unknown potential for disease transmission until the vaccination protocol has been completed. This is especially important for avoidance of parvo virus.
When should my puppy begin training?
Puppies may be started in training at 4 months (16 weeks,) or after the last shots have been given.
Welcome to Payson Dog Training! We train dogs of all breeds and ages. In addition to our obedience classes, we offer CGC testing and therapy dog control evaluations.
​
Positive reinforcement + strong bond equals success
At Payson Dog Training we believe all dogs can learn and want to please their owners. Our training methods are based on positive reinforcement and building a strong bond between dog and owner. At Payson Dog Training we understand that every dog is unique, and we tailor our training programs to meet the specific needs of your dog and your lifestyle. Our certified trainer and behaviorist counselor Lee Grass has years of experience working with dogs of all ages and breeds.

TRAINING TIP FROM PDT
If you feel "off" one day perhaps it's best to wait until you feel better before resuming your training sessions! Your dog feels your discomfort. Take the pause, and don't worry, your dog won't forget a thing!
