Trainer David Wagner has over 25 years of experience working with dogs, works with all breeds, and starts training as early as 12 weeks. He calls the work as much people training as dog training.

Method

David combines operant conditioning, which uses rewards and deterrents for certain behaviors, with classical conditioning, which reconditions a dog's response to a stimulus, and he believes the combination gives the best results.
