Positive & reward-based training!

Life with a dog should be fulfilling, not frustrating.

Love your dog? Choose positive training!

Let’s train your dog the right way: no gimmicks, no shortcuts, no e-collars, no prong collars, no intimidation! Understand what motivates your dog and how to shape his or her behavior through positive, reward-based training that’s scientifically proven. . . and humane. (Your dog will thank you!)

I’m Jen Hendrickson, owner and sole trainer of Pedogogy Dog Training in Raleigh, NC. I’m a former college educator who understands that effective dog training requires good teaching. As an educator, I learned a great deal of patience and the ability to think outside the box, two qualities that are indispensable as a dog trainer. After all, dog training is about training you as much as, if not more than, your dog.

Pedogogy’s mission is to change people’s perception of dogs (yes, they DO think and feel like we do!) and to continue the fight to change the direction of dog training towards the positive. Positive training results in cooperation, not compliance due to pain or fear. Dogs are our companions, members of our family, and our best friends. As such, they deserve better than compulsion and balanced training methods. I don’t believe in training the dogness out of dogs. Dogs should be well behaved, but they are still dogs, and we should allow them to be. I accept and appreciate dogs for who they are, not who their owners want them to be. There is no such thing as a perfect dog. Therefore, I recognize each dog as an individual with different needs, and I try to get each dog to live up to his or her dog potential.
