We’re excited to have Tiger rejoining us to complete our basic starter behaviour program. We’ll be helping him and his guardians navigate some big feelings which are manifesting as fear & reactivity in Tigers day to day life.

Reactivity is a common challenge for many dogs. It often shows up as a dog who is barking, lunging, snarling, or freezing when they see another dog, person or other trigger. While reactivity can feel stressful to deal with from both ends of the leash, it is NOT a dog being “bad”, “disobedient”, or “stubborn”, it’s their way of expressing fear, discomfort or even frustration when a situation feels overwhelming.

Through positive reinforcement techniques and step by step training, Tiger and his guardian will be learning new coping skills, management techniques to prevent reactions, and building his confidence in the world.

If you have a “big feelings” dog, you’re not alone - we’re here to help! With the right support, training can make a world of a difference.

Welcoming baby Zuma who is joining us to complete our private puppy program.🤓

This sweet pup is already off to a fantastic start, thanks to her dedicated guardian who’s hitting the ground running with training.

Starting training early is one of the best ways to build a strong foundation, and set both you and your puppy up for success as they grow up.

We can’t wait to watch her grow and learn! 💛

Daisy’s also adding private enrichment walks to her routine to make sure we’re supporting her physically, mentally, and emotionally — because a well-rounded dog is a happy dog.

🚨Our books for August are almost full!

Miss Ellie is joining us to complete a private Puppy Package! ✨

At just over 4 months of age, Ellie is starting her journey from puppyhood into adolescence. This is a crucial time for building confidence, setting our dogs up for success, and reinforcing all the important foundation skills she'll need to grow into a well-mannered adult dog.

We’re so excited to work alongside Ellie and her guardian to guide them through this stage with consistency, management, and plenty of positive reinforcement! 💛

Welcome, Ellie! 🐶💫

We’re thrilled to introduce Sage, who’s joining us to kickstart their Behaviour Starter Package! 🌟

Our starter package sets the groundwork for positive behaviour change, ensuring both you and your dog feel more confident tackling everyday scenarios together.

Reactivity to certain triggers like other dogs, strangers, or loud noises is a challenge MANY dog guardians face. Reactivity often stems from fear or frustration, causing behaviours like barking, growling, lunging, or attempting to flee.

We specialize in helping reactive dogs like Sage learn how to stay calm and confident in different situations. Through structured training and positive reinforcement, we guide both dog and owner to better communication and more peaceful outings.

If you’ve got a dog who struggles with reactivity, don’t worry—help is just a training session away! 💪

Sweet Lulu, who was recently adopted from the States, joined us for a puppy consultation to ensure she and her guardian are set up for success moving forward! 🏠

We love seeing newly adopted pups like Lulu begin their new chapter with the right support and guidance. Transitioning into a forever home can be overwhelming for a rescue dog, so these early steps are crucial for building trust, confidence, and lasting bonds.

By providing the right tools and guidance early on, we give rescue dogs like Lulu the best chance to thrive. If you're welcoming a new pup into your home, know that support is out there—we’re here to help you build a strong, positive bond from day one. 🐶💛

Nyx and Kuma are making steady strides throughout their private training program ✨

This week, the spotlight was on Nyx, with a focus on improving her loose leash walking and strengthening her focus skills.

We introduced some practical skills and fun games designed to make things easier and more manageable for her parents. Nyx showed great progress—staying more engaged, responding well to cues, and building confidence throughout our session.

Building strong leash skills and focus takes time, but Nyx is showing us that steady progress is possible with the right support. Here's to more confident steps ahead. 🐾

Max, one of our awesome graduates from the private puppy program, is back with us for day training while his parents are on vacation! 🐾✈️

He’s in the thick of his teenage phase (if you know, you know 😅), so we’re focusing on helping him work through leash frustration and practicing calm, polite greetings. As a super social pup, he thinks everyone should be his BFF — we’re here to help him channel that energy in the right direction!

His parents get to enjoy their trip knowing Max is in good hands — and they’ll come home to a more refined, well-mannered pup. Talk about a win-win!

✨ If you're heading out of town, or have a busy summer schedule, our day training program is the perfect mix of professional support and real results — your dog gets training during the day and you get to come home to progress!

Have you been told that using treats during training means that you are bribing your dog?

The key difference between reinforcing or rewarding your dog VS bribing them is your TIMING ⏱️

Rewards come after a behaviour to reinforce it while bribes come before a behaviour has occurred.

Just like us, our dogs shouldn’t be expected to work for free - reward the behaviours you like so that your dog has a reason to offer them again!
