Feeling overwhelmed by your dog’s behaviour?

By providing a positive reinforcement training plan tailored to your exact needs, you and your dog can feel confident taking on the world together. Training takes place in the Victoria, BC area or anywhere virtually!

Do you feel lost when it comes to training your dog?

We know how frustrating it can be when your dog is…

– barking, lunging, and growling
– constantly pulling you down the street
– chewing up your furniture
– doing any of those other embarrassing behaviours you’d be glad to see your dog never do again

We know that it can be a lot to handle, especially when you know deep down how amazing your dog is!

Don’t worry, we’re here to help. The great news is, is that we know there are no bad dogs. We can help your dog become the best version of themselves, and help you two become a team.

Working together, not against each other.

Virtual dog training that’s fun, easy to follow, and accessible. Work from the comfort of your own home!

Services we provide:

Foundations

From puppies who need the basics, to teaching your teenager to be chill while the world passes by, we can lay a solid foundation to becoming a well-rounded companion you can be proud of. No matter the age, there’s always something new for our dog to learn!

Behaviour Modification

Does your dog’s lunging, barking, and growling have you frustrated, embarassed, and stressed out? Through evidence-based dog training, we can help your dog learn to feel comfortable around their triggers, while supporting their mental, emotional, and physical health. 

Separation Anxiety

Is your dog stressed, anxious, and fearful if you leave them home alone? Separation anxiety is stress inducing for not only our dogs, but us too. Let me help you teach your anxious dog that alone time doesn’t have to be so scary.

A discovery call is to ask any questions you may have about consultations, packages we provide, etc. It does not provide training advice.

Training your dog can be stressful and overwhelming. We can help you with your dog through evidence based training, done online over zoom or in Victoria, BC.
