FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Do I have get a package?

NO! Packages are for people who want to go far and get the most out of training.

Do you offer classes?

YES! Please see our class page for what kinds of classes we offer and see our calendar (located on homepage) for what classes are coming up!

What breeds do you train?

I have trained all breeds of dogs. You would be hard-pressed to find a breed that we have not trained – from Chihuahua to Great Dane, big or small, I train them all!

What training method do you use?

I use science-based, humane approach to dog training called positive reinforcement training; This includes treats, toys, and fun. We focus on what the dog does instead of what the dog does “wrong”. I use a clicker in my training, a clicker is a toy noisemaker. Animal trainers make use of the clicker as an event marker to mark a desired response. The sound of the clicker is an excellent marker because it is unique, quick, and consistent.

If you dont punish the dog for doing wrong, how do they learn to not do those things?

We train a behavior that cannot be performed along side the “wrong” behavior. Example: For jumping on people, we reinforce for all 4 paws on the floor (or sitting for when the dog wants something and rewarding with that something).

Is my dog too young/old to begin training?

No! Because of the gentle humane approach we use, training can begin at ANY age… as young as 5 weeks old to the senior citizen ages.

Do you guarantee your training?

No. Dogs are individual beings with a personality and free will, much like people. Just like a school can’t guarantee that a student will get straight A’s, there is no ethical way to guarantee a specific behavioral outcome for any dog. 

Here’s what we do promise. We’ll give you the training, the tools, and the support you’ll need to be successful. At the end of the day, it’s the time you spend putting our lessons into practice that has the most impact.

How do I get started?

Filling out our client intake form and emailing it to our head trainer, Ashley at ashley@delightful-dogs.com. Or calling us at 661-750-7961

How many sessions do I need?

Thats a tough question to answer… dogs come to us with a variety of issues and depending on how much work you are willing to put in and how old your dog is, and other factors will change the answer to this question.

We recommend that you check out our packages based on your circumstances and giving us a call if you need help making a decision.
