Training Classes

Doggy FUNdamentals

This class is open to dogs of all breeds that are 18 weeks and older and have been fully vaccinated.

Through positive reinforcement and a good dose of fun we will teach our dogs foundation obedience cues such as sit, down, and touch as well as working on recall, loose leash walking, leave-it and so much more.

This will help create a long lasting bond based on trust between you and your dog. This class is 60 min each week for 7 weeks. This class also includes a 10% discount on any private in-home sessions for 3 months after graduation. There is a maximum of 4 dogs in each class. Register by phone, email, or submit an online training form. A 50% deposit is due at time of registration.

This deposit is fully refundable up to 14 days prior to class at which time it becomes nonrefundable.

Doggy FUNdamentals – Level 2

Doggy FUNdamentals Level 2 expands on the skills that you and your pup learned in FUNdamentals level 1. We focus on improving our loose leash walking, recall, and obedience cues around higher levels of distraction. You’ll also learn new skills to help make grooming and vet visits less stressful, keep your pup from counter surfing, and have them gladly give up that sock they stole from your hamper.

This class is for graduates of Doggy FUNdamentals level 1 who are also comfortable in a class with other dogs. This is not suited for dogs who are not able to focus when other dogs or people are in the room. Much of this class will be without the barriers used in level 1 so a strong focus on you, their pet parent, is a must.

The price is $285. There is a deposit of 50% required at time of registration. This deposit is fully refundable up to 14 days prior to class at which time it becomes nonrefundable.

Feisty Fido Reactive Dog Class

Does your dog turn from Dr. Jekyll to Mr. Hyde when you try to go on a walk? If your dog is 6 months or older and can’t pass other dogs without barking, growling and lunging then this is the class for you.

Raising a reactive dog can be stressful, embarrassing, and many times scary. Parents of these dogs are often at a loss at what to do or who to turn to for help. In this class we provide you with the confidence and tools you need to keep your dog and others safe.

In this class we use force free training methods to desensitize your dog, help them create positive association with other dogs, and train them to focus on you. From there, we move on to teaching them the cues required to provide your dog with the choice of more appropriate behaviours, rather than the over reaction.

While this class will focus on leash reactivity around other dogs, the skills you and your dog will gain can transfer to other people, places, and things your dog is scared of. The result will be a more confident dog that has learned to trust you to keep them safe and no longer feels the need for outbursts while on leash.

This class is 60 min each week for 7 weeks. Week 1 will be a seminar for humans only with the dogs joining us for weeks 2-7. This class also includes a 1 hour long home visit with our trainer to take place within 4 weeks of graduating the 7 week course. The home visit will help you transition the new skills you learned in class into your real life situations. Any additional home visits pertaining to your dog’s reactivity will be discounted 10% for 6 months after graduation. In order to ensure you have the opportunity to receive the most help personalized to you and your dog, we have limited each class to a maximum of 2 dogs. Register by phone, email, or submit an online training form. A 50% deposit is due at time of registration. 

This deposit is fully refundable up to 14 days prior to class at which time it becomes nonrefundable.
