Eidolon Dog Training

I’m incredibly honoured and excited to share that Eidolon Dog Training has been nominated for Community Votes Saskatoon 2026 in the Pet Training category! 🐾

Last year, we placed 6th — after being in business for only a few months since opening in August 2024 — and I honestly couldn’t have done it without the amazing support from all of you.

Thank you to every client, supporter, and dog who has trusted me along the way. Watching dogs and their people build confidence, communication, and stronger relationships is the best part of what I do, and I’m so grateful to be part of this community.

If you’d like to support Eidolon Dog Training again this year, I would truly appreciate your vote! ❤️

Every vote means so much to a small local business. Thank you for continuing to support ethical, relationship-based dog training in Saskatoon!

We’re less than a month away from the Sask Pet-a-palooza, and this event is shaping up to be amazing for pet lovers, enthusiasts, and professionals alike!

As with most pet events, Pet-a-palooza is pet friendly — but not all pets are comfortable or capable of handling busy, crowded environments like this.

I’ll be bringing Scythe, my demo dog, but he’ll also have a crate there so he can take breaks when he needs them. Having a quiet space to decompress is incredibly important for dogs at events like these.

If you’re planning to bring your dog to the event, here are a few things to keep in mind:

• Keep your dog on a standard six-foot leash and close to you at all times. Don’t allow them to wander ahead or approach other dogs without permission. You never know how other pets may react, and even friendly dogs can become uncomfortable in crowded or overstimulating environments.

🐾 Bring high-value treats or rewards to reinforce good behaviour and choices throughout the event. This not only helps keep your dog engaged with you but also teaches them what’s expected during outings like this.

If possible, practice beforehand in pet-friendly stores or quieter public spaces leading up to the event — I highly recommend it! Building that foundation ahead of time can make a huge difference in your dog’s success and comfort level.

🐾 If your dog is really struggling with fear-based or reactive behaviour, this event may not be the best fit for them right now. Alternatively, you may want to attend earlier or later in the day when crowds are lighter.

If you’re actively working through training, focus on keeping your dog engaged with you, reward often, and give them plenty of breaks throughout the day. Step outside for a breather, find a quiet corner for a few moments, or come visit our table and take a short break away from the crowd.

🐾 If you plan on spending several hours at the event, make sure your dog gets regular breaks outside so they can decompress and relax away from the noise and activity.

Most importantly — have fun! Reward your dog often and with enthusiasm so they can enjoy the experience just as much as you do.

I’m looking forward to seeing everyone next month!

Meet this month's Sit and Stay students! Bailey (Cane Corso mix), Thorbert (HuskyxShepherd mix), and Daisy (mini Dachshund)! All three dogs are going to learn some basic obedience, leash manners, and Thorbert and Daisy are going to be working on some reactivity and aggression issues (Thor) and some stranger danger struggles (Daisy). Today was a day of building trust, learning some basic things (focus, luring, and that I'm not going to "unalive" them (Daisy still isn't quite sure about that last one, haha). Hit that follow button if you want to see these dogs learn how to be their best selves over the next 20 days!

Today is International Women’s Day, and it’s a moment to recognize the enormous impact women have had on the world of dog training.

For generations, women have led the way in building kinder, more thoughtful approaches to working with dogs. They have questioned outdated methods, studied behaviour, shared knowledge, and helped move the industry toward training built on communication, trust, and science.

Across Canada and around the world, women are teaching puppy families, helping reactive and fearful dogs feel safe again, coaching sport teams, mentoring new trainers, and advocating for higher welfare standards. Much of the progress we see today in humane training and behaviour work exists because women were willing to learn more, do better, and bring others along with them.

Dog training is at its best when it is rooted in patience, empathy, and understanding — values that so many women in this field demonstrate every day.

To the trainers, behaviour consultants, sport competitors, rescue workers, veterinarians, and educators who dedicate their time and skill to improving the lives of dogs and the people who love them: your work matters.

Happy International Women’s Day 💜

Thanks for having us out! I love helping other teams and their trainers work on their skills!

Today we had a structured session with Willow and her handler, joined by Becky and Scythe from Eidolon Dog Training. Willow rocked it. She’s a very sweet dog and came ready to work. Today we focused on leash handling and strengthening Willow’s engagement with her handler. Clear communication on leash makes a big difference, and Willow showed some really nice progress. Becky and Scythe provided a great controlled distraction, giving Willow the chance to practice staying focused while another dog was present. We’re grateful to Becky for taking the time to join us and support Willow’s training today. And of course, old man Bentley supervised the whole operation as usual. Good dogs. Good handlers. Solid work
