"Come!" — but your dog’s like… 'nah I’m good'. 😅
We’ve all been there. That moment when your recall cue turns invisible. But what if your dog actually came running—joyfully, every time?

That’s exactly what you’ll learn in the Emergency Recall Workshop with Kris:

✨ A cue that means “come here NOW,” no matter what
🍗 How to recall your dog away from food (yes, even rotisserie chicken)
🐕 Calling them off other dogs, indoors and outdoors
🐿️ Getting them back when there’s real-life chaos like squirrels or bikes
🛟 And most importantly, how to make this cue life-saving in an emergency

This isn’t just about obedience. It’s about freedom, safety, and a dog who comes back when it counts most.

🗓️ Spots are limited (one left for July!)
🎓 Trainer-led
🦴 Real results (with treats, of course)

Raintown COMMUNITY DOG WALK alert! 😁
We'll be doing our monthly Raintown Community Walk this Thursday (June 5th) from 5-6pm at Pacific Spirit Park! 🤩
Kris & co. will be at the entrance to the Sasamat Trail Head (16th and Sasamat) at 5pm to enjoy a fun walk through the forest with you and your doggos.

Please note, this isn't a time for dog training questions, but rather a time to connect with each other and enjoy some time outdoors with our beloved pups.

If your dog is reactive, please make sure you have good management skills in place and are aware that there will be plenty of off-leash dogs in the area.

Drop a comment below if you plan to come!

See you there!

Does your dog love to chew?

Chewing is a necessary behaviour for dogs (especially teething puppies!). Providing them with plenty of ‘legal’ chew items (bully sticks, yak chews, pigs ears) can greatly reduce unwanted chewing (such as on the couch, table, or your arm).

What outlets does your dog get to satisfy their need to chew? Let us know below!













Our next Community Walk will be on June 5th at 5pm! Message us for location details. Hope to see you there! 😃 ...

Positive reinforcement is a scientific principle. It works for all living beings. This means if it’s not working, you’re not doing it right. Some things to consider are:

1. Is my dog experiencing pain or discomfort?
If your dog isn’t feeling well, they will not want to perform the behaviour you’re asking.

2. Is the environment too distracting?
If you’ve only practiced a behaviour in the house, then ask them to do it around other dogs and people, it’s way to difficult. Gradually increase the level of distraction.

3. Is the reinforcement I’m using actually reinforcing to my dog?
It’s not always food! Use the environment to your advantage. For example, if your dog is motivated but other dogs, let them go back to play after recall.
