Companion Animal Training provides professional, positive, science-based methods of training and behaviour modification for canines and felines. We believe in showing respect and kindness toward your pets. We are passionate about teaching clients how dogs and cats think and what we can do as humans to strengthen the bond with our pets. Our hands-off approach to training allows dogs and cats to tru

st their humans without the use of force and correction but instead uses motivation and understanding. Whether you need puppy classes, basic manners, or a behaviour consultation and modification sessions, we are qualified and happy to help.

When we think of socialization, sometimes it’s easy to picture a group of playful puppies in a class setting, running around and interacting. While this can be one aspect of socialization, the reality is that it’s so much more than that.

In order to ensure your puppy’s physical, social, and emotional needs are met, make sure you think of all these other aspects too! You can learn how to safely set up these scenarios in our puppy classes! Our next sessions start on February 22nd!

Puppy Socialization & Exploration introduces the building blocks of good manners and confidence. We work on place, touch, recall, loose-leash walking, paw-to-the-button for house training, and husbandry skills (including an introduction to nail trims and teeth brushing).

We also cover key topics such as housetraining, crate training, enrichment, puppy biting, and preparing your pup for home alone training.

Each week, puppies are introduced to new sights, sounds, and textures through guided exploration of novel stimuli like children’s toys, rolling objects, obstacles, and varied surfaces.

To start and end each session, puppies enjoy carefully managed playtime with their classmates. Play groups are matched by style and energy level to ensure safe, positive socialization experiences.

Join us for a fun, positive and Fear Free Class!

Training classes are starting soon!

🐶 Puppy Socialization: Starts January 11th for puppies aged 8 to 13 weeks

🐶 Puppy Foundations: Starts January 11th for puppies aged 14 to 21 weeks

🐕‍🦺 Mind Your Manners: Starts January 11th for dogs 6+ months

In Puppy Socialization and Puppy Foundations, puppies will have the opportunity to socialize with their classmates at the beginning and end of each class. Puppies are separated by play style to ensure a successful playtime experience. Initially, if your puppy is uncertain about playing, they will be given an opportunity to watch from behind a baby gate where they can feel safe until they gain the confidence to join in.

Mind Your Manners classes are not set up for dogs to interact with one another. We will work on foundation behaviors (sit, down, touch, place, recall, loose leash walking, calmly through the door, etc.) in a minimally distracting environment.

Cost: $235 plus GST
