Does your dog need a manners tuneup?  
​We teach dogs the manners and life skills they need to live in our crazy human world. These all important skills help dogs stay safe. Dogs with good manners and life skills can go more places, do more things, and are easier to live with at home. View our LIFE SKILLS services and  "Teen Tyrant"! class

Looking for something different and exciting to do with your dog? 
Make 2023 the Year of the Nose for you and your dog and try one of our scent work classes! We offer classes in nosework (finding hidden odour) and mantrailing (finding hidden people). It's fun, engaging, and mentally stimulating and you will have a tired and happy dog after scent work class! Sniff out our SCENT WORK offerings ​

Frustrated, worried, and confused by your dog's behaviour? ​
​LIving with serious behaviour issues, such as reactivity and aggression, is stressful. It can be difficult to see a way forward and know what to do. We prioritize your dog's, and your family's, well-being as we work with you to find a successful resolution. Read about our  BEHAVIOUR SUPPORT program.
