The Balanced Pack - Dog Training & Daycare

Last but certainly not least in our spring group class line up.. Rockin’ Recalls!
(As seen in action here lol)

This class is all about building up your value in your dogs eyes, especially when there’s conflicting interests, and even when there isn’t. We all want the safety and control of having a dog that listens when you need them to.
In this course you’ll learn how to start these skills on leash, while teaching them the value in your requests, and creating clarity in the behaviour you want from your dog. You’ll learn how to proactively manage off leash interactions, and better understand your dogs competing motivators. Distractions will soon be no match for your rockin’ recall!

*All dogs will be on a long line for the duration of this class, for safety and bylaw purposes, but we’ll cover how to practice these behaviours off leash in an enclosed safe area, or in public areas with the use of a longline.

More detailed Class outline will be sent upon registration

5 weeks | Class starts April 9th @ 5pm | Cost: $160 ($10 off for current pack members)
First class will be at our facility and additional locations will be utilized for practicing out in the real world.

Next in our spring group class line up is.. Advanced Structured Steps(NEW!)

This class is a continuation of our Structured Steps class, dogs must have taken a SS prior to moving on to this class. We up the challenges for both dog and owner, continue controlled and comfortable exposure for our more reserved or reactive participants, and we’ll build on our advocating drills to improve confidence at both ends of the leash when faced with approaching on/off leash dogs.
Each week will be at a new location(maybe even your neighbourhood!) to continue our generalization and reinforce that the structured walk applies “everywhere”

More detailed class outline will be sent upon registration.

Starts Saturday April 9th, 2022 @ 3pm | 5 Weeks | $160 ($10 off for current pack members)

Spring Training is right around the corner!
We are bringing back our group class line up and starting with our tried and true class..
Structured Steps!

This class is all about the walk and making it more enjoyable for both ends of the leash.
During this course you will learn our signature pressure/release model for loose leash walking utilizing the tool best suited to your dogs needs, you’ll learn how to keep their attention, how to read and respond to your dogs behaviour when coming up on potential triggers, but most importantly you’ll walk away from this class without a sore shoulder and empowered to strut your stuff peacefully throughout your neighbourhood.

*Full Class Outline will be emailed upon registration

Looking to add a well bred dog to your family?!
Not sure you can handle the puppy stage?

Check out these awesome dogs, some have co ownership requirements, meaning they are breeding quality dogs and will be called upon a couple times to continue their lineage.
But you have a breeder support every step of the way.
Who knows maybe you’ll even get to enjoy a pup from them in the future.

Or maybe a senior is more your speed, the older dogs really need a great place to land and live out their lives in the lap of luxury. Lower energy than younger counterparts making for easier integration.
