How to Train Your Dog Using Positive Reinforcement and Treats


🐕 What is Positive Reinforcement?

Positive reinforcement means rewarding your dog when they do something right – so they’re more likely to do it again. It’s a proven, humane method supported by the RSPCA and the Australian Veterinary Association.

Instead of punishing bad behaviour, we focus on encouraging good behaviour. And nothing says "Well done!" quite like a tasty Slobber Chops treat.

 


 

🎯 Why It Works

  • Science-backed – Studies show dogs learn faster and are less stressed when trained with rewards.

  • Builds trust – Your dog associates training with fun and love.

  • Great for all breeds and ages – From energetic puppies to wise seniors.

 


 

🦴 Treat Training Tips

  1. Keep treats small – Training is about repetition, not overfeeding.

  2. Reward immediately – Timing is everything in dog training.

  3. Mix up rewards – Sometimes a treat, sometimes praise or playtime.

  4. Phase out treats slowly – Keep behaviours strong without constant snacking.
