In addition your puppy will also learn to love meeting and being handled by new people of different shapes, colours and sizes.

Walk with me- Loose Leash Walking

Does your dog pull on leash when you are out for a walk? Would you like the pulling to stop, so you can enjoy your walk? If your dog is constantly pulling, it will make your walk unenjoyable and can be unhealthy for your dog. When your dog pulls on leash it is self rewarding, meaning, when they pull it gets them where they want to go and quickly. Our main focus of this 4 week course is to teach your dog to walk nicely on a loose leash and not pull you. During this course we will be working both inside and outside. You will need to bring a leash,collar/harness, and treats!

Duration: 4 weeks/ 45 minutes each week

The recall is arguably the most important command your dog can learn. While off leash, your best friend must come when you call. All the time. No exceptions.

This training class will teach you various methods to train your dog to turn on a dime and consistently return safely back, no matter what distractions are present. Wondering what to bring to class? What to bring to class

Canine Communication 

Reactive dogs are those that react to other dogs, humans,  sounds and other stimuli. If you share your life with a dog like this, know that there are many of us who have experienced the same embarrassing moments. Through training, continued socialization and management tools you will see the light at the end of the tunnel. We promise. Wondering what to bring to class? What to bring to class
