We’re just a month away from the Behaviour, Eh? Conference here in Calgary!

There’s still time to grab your tickets! This conference is open to EVERYONE!!!

And for my U.S. friends and colleagues, you’re more than welcome to join us online (or better yet, make the trip to Calgary. I promise you’ll love it).

I’ll be presenting on Saturday, November 1. Here’s a little sneak peek at what I’ll be sharing (yep, on peacebuilding, of course!):

So You Want to Build Peace, Eh!?

In 2011, I rescued my now-late dog, Mouse, who had spent most of his first two years in a shelter. Even as a dog professional, I found myself grappling with the complexity of his behaviour and caught in a whirlwind of unresolved conflict. Desperate for answers, I dove down the proverbial rabbit hole, and out of that journey a living philosophy and universal framework now known as Pooch Peacebuilding emerged.

In So You Want to Build Peace, Eh!?, I’ll share the heart, passion, and insights that have grown out of this work. We will explore how conflict and peace shape our interactions with dogs, and how every interaction holds the potential for transformation.

You’ll learn to see the system, recognize the web of relationships within it, and become a "web walker and watcher" (Lederach), continuously engaging different perspectives and working toward a shared purpose. You’ll learn practical strategies to turn everyday moments into opportunities for clarity, growth, and connection.

At its core, peacebuilding is about a simple but profound shift:

Humbling ourselves, opening our hearts and eyes, and truly seeing the dog and people in front of us.

I would love to see you there!!!!

Congrats to yesterday's Trail Hunt International Foundations graduates, Georgie, Max, Kate and Reggie! This crew started from very humble beginnings just 4 weeks ago.

Some of these dogs were terrified of the trail pod where the odor is contained, a couple started out reactive to other dogs and one was so distracted they could hardly focus on the games in week one. With persistence and teamwork each of these teams accomplished GREAT things over our 4 weeks together and they became inseparable as well.

There is still time to sign up for the final fall round of Trail Hunt International Foundations starting Oct 19. Literally every domesticated dog on the planet needs this sport (big statement I know but this is not hyperbole).

Check out the website for more details or drop me a comment. All dogs are welcome: puppies, reactive, fearful, wild, chill etc.

Hellooooo!

I hope you’ve been having an amazing summer, especially now that the sunshine and warm weather has FINALLY arrived! ☀️

I’d love to hear what adventures you and your dog have been up to these past couple of months.

I also wanted to let you know about a few upcoming classes that might be a great fit for you and your dog!

1. Trail Hunt International Foundations
Every dog (and their human!) should try this -- seriously! Trail Hunt is a new scent sport (think tracking meets airborne scent puzzle trailing) that gives your a way to tap into their natural instincts, all while essential life skills like problem-solving, focus, calmness under pressure, self-confidence and giving them a sense of purpose! As a bonus, the sport burns a lot of energy as well!

Next class starts Sept 7

2. Leash Logic
Brand new course! This outdoor leash walking bootcamp is for dogs who pull on leash. All classes are held outside where real-life walking challenges actually happen.

Get started Sept 20

3. Feisty Fido
My flagship reactivity program (can you believe it's been almost 15 years?). This is a seasonal outdoor course for dogs struggling with fear or reactivity. The program includes 10 hours of intensive support + bonuses to help calm the chaos and grow you and your dog's confidence.

Next class starts Sept 20

Space is limited for all classes.
Check out the website for full details and to grab your spot!

**FULL**

Registration is now open to the public for my first Trail Hunt International Foundations class. If your dog has alot of energy, has a nose that needs to be put to work, and or you and your dog just want to get out and do something new together. Then you need to join this class. The benefits of this are too many to list but as a short list: increased problem-solving, focus, self confidence, self-control and autonomy, emotional regulation and resiliency on the dog side of the leash. Improved communication and understanding between dog and handler. These are the ingredients for systemic change and living the best life possible with your dog (which is why I decided to jump in head first into this sport and I'm not looking back!)

It you and your dog want to join me I would love to have you in the course.

I will link in the comments to the registration page. Space is super limited and so grab a spot before its too late!
