Imagine having a dog who makes good choices with confidence
Not out of fear - but because they want to!
How you Train Your Dog will Change You!
CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT OF ENCOURAGEMENT & INSPIRATION
No more punishment and verbal corrections!
We teach you how to focus on the behaviour that you want to see and encourage more of it through positive reinforcement.
This is more than treats and praise
We teach you how to have a happy, confident dog who wants to work for you.
Reinforcement includes playing with toys, time with your dog, a car ride, social time with other dogs, a swim, and a simple walk.
When you know what makes your dog happy, you can use that to create an environment where your dog will want to do what you ask!
Say goodbye to leash-pulling, furniture chewing and jumping up on guests - let’s create a new learning environment for your dog!
AS YOUR DOG UNDERSTANDS MORE YOU WILL BOTH EXPERIENCE MORE FREEDOM!
We focus on the path ahead by letting go of past misbehaviour and encouraging what we want through fun, reinforcement, and clear communication.
Training your dog is a lifetime commitment
THIS TRAINING BECOMES A WAY OF LIFE
We gently guide you on your journey as you learn to listen to and believe your dog, to work together and to take self-responsibility for your relationship.
Offered online or in-person
This is a safe, judgement-free space
Through Arianne’s gentle coaching, we went from a very anxious and upset puppy in the crate to a puppy that willingly goes in on her own for naps!

Frequently Asked Questions
About our dog-training programs
-
They happen over Zoom and replay recordings are sent to you after the call.
We can accomplish the same quality of lessons on zoom as we can in person.
-
It’s unlikely to have everything changed in one call, but we break down your challenges and come up with a plan.
By the end of our first call, we will know if and how we can help you. We will then schedule more calls as needed.
You will leave the first call with some new perspectives and we will show you the opportunies in your relationship with your dog.
-
Yes, our positive approach to training is what many rescue owners seek.
It’s a way to build your relationship with your new family member and have fun in the process!
-
As soon as you get your dog, consciously or unconsciously, you are creating their training environment. So “training” begins the moment they move in.
It is best to start formal training from the beginning but this isn’t always how it works out and that’s okay!
We begin where you and your dog are today.
No matter their age or struggles, you can build a relationship of trust with your dog.
-
We work with positive reinforcement - so rather than correction (which can lead to punishment) we build a new behaviour by encouraging more of it.
We focus on what we want to see from our dog instead of focusing on undesired behaviour.

I have loved building a stronger connection with our puppy. Not just myself, but others in and outside of our household have noticed her thinking through decisions and beginning to make good choices all on her own.
