Who we are

HELPING DOGS IS
MY passion

HOW IT STARTED

Frustrated by how my dog was behaving, there seemed to be no light at the end of the tunnel. I researched, tried the popular methods to no avail.

 I quit my job, and started to train my dog myself. I got to see with my own eyes what worked and what didn’t. In this process, an idea was born. I wanted to help people who were also frustrated with their dogs. 

I got to see relationships between dog and owner flourish. I got to witness people’s eyes light up when their dog laid down for the first time, or nailed coming back when called. I didn’t want to do anything else, so I committed and went to school in May to learn from the best: Michael Ellis. 

I got so much from that course and tweaked my training to be even better. I can confidently say the owner and dog have a blast during our training sessions, so it doesn’t really feel like training at all.

OUR PASSION

We love helping dog owners reach their full potential. From assisting with recall, leash work,  and puppy training we try our best to ensure we maximize training opportunities. 

We proof behaviours in different locations, under different distractions and pressures so you can be confident your dog will listen to you no matter the distraction. With consistency and patience on both ends we can work towards you having a dog that you’ve always dreamed of having. 

Our promise

Our promise to you as dog trainer’s is that we will always be transparent and honest with you, no matter how intense the behavioural issue may seem. With consistency and patience we can minimize and/or eliminate problem behaviours.
