Dog trainers are professionals who teach dogs specific behaviors and commands. They use various techniques to help dogs learn obedience, socialization, and skills that enhance their relationship with their owners. Training can take place in group classes or one-on-one sessions, and it often involves positive reinforcement methods, such as treats and praise. These trainers may specialize in different areas, including puppy training, agility training, or service dog training. Many dog trainers also educate owners on how to manage their pets' behavior effectively. Their goal is to create well-behaved dogs that are happy and safe in their environments.
