DOG TRAINING

OTAT-WTX advocates for humane, positive-reinforcement training, positive reinforcement training as the best and most effective way to communicate. This concept at its core is about rewarding good behavior and ignoring or redirecting the unwanted behavior. This technique helps to build the dog's confidence and feel secure in knowing what's expected of them.

ANIMAL BREEDING

OTAT-WTX does not support companion animal breeding for any purpose, in any capacity. We believe that there is no justifiable reason for breeding when there are hundreds of thousands of healthy companion animals still being killed each year in shelters across the U.S.

SPAY/NEUTER

With rare exception, all of OTAT-WTX’s dogs are spayed or neutered before adoption. The date and veterinarian of these scheduled surgeries is non-negotiable.
