rescue dog
program applications
For each year someone is a member of the Traction Dog Training Club,
we donate training to 5 local rescue dogs in need.
We have found that the biggest factor of a rescue dog successfully adjusting to a new home is what communication the pet parents establish in the first days of the dog’s arrival, using a marker training system to clearly encourage good behaviors and clearly discourage unwanted behaviors.
If you have or are getting a rescue dog, apply to benefit from this program here.
