Meet ADOPTABLE Gomi, a 3-year-old, high-drive German Shepherd in search of a dedicated owner. His unique blend of intelligence and skill, coupled with his owners' relocation, makes him the perfect companion for an experienced handler.
Gomi has completed a comprehensive board-and-train program to help him integrate better into a new family. He is eager to continue learning and requires a home committed to ongoing training, including the use of an e-collar.
While he has successfully interacted with adults and some children, he can be discerning with humans and prefers earned affection. Once he forms a bond, he is incredibly warm and loyal. His new owner should understand reactivity in dogs and have experience with working breeds.
We'd like to invite you to meet this remarkable dog if you're ready to provide a structured environment with consistent training. Serious inquiries only, as we seek the best match for his needs.
Please contact Lead Right Dog Training for more information and to fill out a questionnaire.

Congratulations Mars! During your board and training you worked tirelessly on your bravery and confidence and we are so proud of you! You also have been so good accepting your little brother Juno.

Congratulations Alder! Your transformation here at Lead Right has left us in awe! You went from a little anxious wild child who was a struggle to walk, to a confident, focused, and a well mannered boy!

Congratulations Fiona!! This gorgeous little girl just couldn’t wait to join us for a board and train. First her brother Frank came, and she spent way more time watching his homework than he did (no I’m serious, she was glued to the TV when the training vids were on).
Which she finally got to come she gave it her all, and showed everyone just how smart she really is!

This loveable big guy is Easten! He came to us for a 2 week board and train while his owners were busy with their move (genius right?!)
He learned so much! He learned with the prong collar and leash as his main tools, and learned mostly importantly not to jump and knock people down (with love, but still). We are so proud of him! Swipe for his Bio!

Little Mango here is as sweet as his name 🥭
He joined us for a board and train to work on his overall obedience. He had become a little too rambunctious over time, a lot likely due to the fact he has to have a couple of surgeries which lead to him being confined in his development stages.
We are so proud of the progress he made!

Our daycare is not just ANY daycare. It’s daycare and training! Your dog will receive training sessions throughout the day that are tailored to their needs, whether it’s obedience, socialization or anything else! Send us a message if you want to book a spot or if you have any questions. #trainingdogsforlife #trainingdogsisthebest #daycare #dogdaycare #doggylove #doggydaycarelife #doggydaycamp #doggydaycare #doggytheworld #puppy #beautifulbc #nanaimobc #lovedog

Shelters are FULL and private rescues are turning dogs away every day! Most of the dogs turned into shelters aren’t “bad dogs” but just ones who didn’t get the training and structure they needed to be their best self. We recommend educating yourself on the breed that fits your lifestyle and then accepting that even the best dogs need a lot of training. Barking, leash pulling, damaging the house, reactivity and separation anxiety are all things that can be worked on. Save a dog - train yours! #trainingdogsforlife #trainingdogsisthebest #dogmomlife #westcoastdogs #dogtrainingtips #dogtrainingisfun #dogtrainingpaysoff #nanaimodogtrainer #dogtrainerslife #dogtraining #reactivedogtraining #trainyourdog #ecollertraining #dogsofvancouverisland #dogtrainingnanaimo #dogtrainerlife #balancedogtraining #nanaimo #dogsneedleaders #balancedtraining #petstagram #dogsofinstagram

Does your dog need a little training refresh? Book a Tune Up with us! We can refresh their skills, address other issues that have come up and supplement the training you’re doing at home. Your dog can board with us and receive training throughout the day! #trainingdogs4life #trainingdogsforlife #dogmom #dogmomlife #trainingdogsisthebest #dogtrainingtips #nanaimodogtrainer #dogtrainerslife #dogtraining

Our Story

Dana Nielsen is the Owner, and head trainer at Lead Right. She has grown up with dogs and has a passion for all animals. Currently in a program to become a certified Equine and Canine Physiotherapist; she looks to not only train dogs but be able to help them physically as well.

Her journey to becoming a dog trainer began while reaching out for aggression training with her own dog. In doing so she met her mentor who saw she had a natural talent and understanding for canine behaviour. She soon began her apprenticeship with the animal behaviourist and specializing in aggression rehabilitation.

“I love being able to help a dog and owner create a real working relationship. We have so many owners coming to us feeling completely lost and helpless. Whether their dog is exhibiting aggressive behaviour, dragging them on the leash, barking constantly, or bouncing off the walls, it can be stressful - quite the opposite feeling people imagine when owning a dog. Above all I love being able to keep a dog from continuing down the wrong path to an often unfortunate end. I believe all dogs can be trained and rehabilitated- Its just about helping them understand what is expected of them and the role that they play in the family.”
