Transformation stories

Every dog on this page started exactly where yours is now.

Sasha

German Shepherd

Reactivity Training

Before

I had no control over Sasha. She was so reactive that I couldn't be around other dogs without her going crazy, which made our walks together a nightmare.

After

I can finally enjoy being around other dogs. Sasha is much more manageable, and I've learned the exact techniques to correct her behavior and keep her focused.

Mason

German Shepherd

Reactivity Training

Before

Walking Mason was a constant challenge. His reactivity toward other dogs meant we couldn't even walk down the street or through the woods without an incident.

After

Mason has come so far that we've transitioned from private lessons to group classes. He genuinely enjoys the training, and our daily life is completely different.

Lilou

GSD Mix

Puppy Training

Before

Life with my first reactive dog was a nightmare. Even a simple walk felt impossible, and the constant stress was overwhelming.

After

The training made such a difference that I didn't hesitate to return with my new puppy. Now, our walks are enjoyable, and I feel confident about my dogs' future.

Common Questions

FAQ

Everything you need to know before getting started.

Training Methods & Approach

We offer a variety of different methods. It all depends on the dog in front of us, what is best suited for the dog as well as what is comfortable for the client. Our goal is to use the safest and most effective method tailored to the dog's needs emphasizing the importance of the dog's emotional state. Strong relationship building is priority for us.

Our training philosophy is quite different from the traditional training methods. We focus primarily on developing a solid relationship between human and dog. We first work on building active engagement before doing any type of obedience training. Engagement, motivation, communication, connection, confidence and relationship is our top priority.

Services & Classes

Private classes are our top choice & something we highly recommend for all clients. During these classes, we take the time to educate owners and help them improve their handling skills. We make sure to challenge both the handler and dog every class while controlling the environment for them. We have demo dogs and other distractions that can be introduced during these sessions. Once you and your dog start having the necessary tools to move forward, we will make the effort to continue the training sessions in different environments. This is a way for us to show you how to manage and work with your dog in public environments. We strongly believe this is a realistic and effective way to help dogs owners.

We offer consultations, pet obedience, behaviour modification, intro to dog sports and apprenticeship courses. Our services are mostly private classes and group classes. The obedience group classes consists of different levels that are accustomed to the dog's age, level of training and handler skills.

Getting Started

The first step is to schedule an evaluation with one of our trainers. This evaluation will determine which program is best suited for you and your dog. Once you have completed the evaluation session, a trainer will provide you details on how to prepare for your first group class/private class and what to bring.

The best way to reach us is by submitting a request form through our website. You can also call/text our trainers for information and bookings.
