- Do you guarantee results? Canine Training Academy guarantees your dog will be trained ethically and humanely. We guarantee that our training methods are well-vetted techniques and that we will apply training plans for your dog that are goal-oriented, achievable, and safe, while always working toward long-term behavioral refinement and improvement.
Ethically, we cannot guarantee anything further. As with any living creature, we cannot always predict how your dog will behave in every situation. Guarantees in training or behavior modification are not always possible as behavior can change in response to the environment. Many things can contribute to behavior changes in your dog, for instance; medical problems, household and owner compliance, environmental conditions or stimuli, and emotional responses created by repeated exposure to triggers can all cause behavior to change at any time. Therefore guarantees are just not possible or ethical.
