Our team member Beth is now booking new clients for her Enrichment Walks program in Toronto (St. Clair West area and Midtown)!

Beth’s enrichment walks are an hour (or 30 mins) of 1-to-1 fulfillment for your dog.

This is for dogs who aren’t a fit for group walks, high energy dogs who need more than a walk around the block, or anyone who wants to maintain their dog’s training skills and needs ongoing support with their exercise.

During enrichment walks, Beth can practice training protocols with your dog, or give them outlets like long line/flexi leash walks and/or play.

Dm or .beth for more info/to register, or send an email to [email protected].

Does your dog struggle to pay attention to you around distractions, or do you want more practice working with your dog in a small group environment?

We’re excited to have our trainer Jaye hosting 2 group classes this month in Parkdale for anyone who’d like to learn to engage with their dog around distractions (handler engagement class), and practice neutrality in controlled proximity exercises (dog neutrality class).

These classes max out at 4 people to ensure everyone gets personalized coaching.
