Welcome to Canine Valley! :)
Our centre dedicated to evolving the human-dog relationship! Canine Valley, evolving the human dog relationship.

Our specialty is connection and building bonds that last a lifetime. Dog training is always in a constant state of evolution, work on empathy building and influence. Work on fundamentals and create a deeper bond with you pup. Our techniques are based on the use of dog psychology, that's where the magic happens. Our goal is to help owners see the world through a dog’s eyes to facilitate efficient c

ommunication with their dogs. We train dogs of all kinds for all reasons. Puppy training, reactivity, obedience, agility, nose work, our core is service and therapy dog training. We do solely foundation work. Work on what matters most, the goal is having not only a great dog for yourself, but your family, friends and community. At Canine Valley we believe that aggression and other unwanted canine behaviors arise due to the unbalanced state of a dog. This condition arises when the dog is not comfortable and it does not trust it’s human to be a good pack leader. We teach dog owners to consistently and calmly introduce and maintain rules and boundaries that will allow them to be seen as a leader through their dog’s eyes. The Canine Valley rescue and rehabilitation program is our way to giving back to the community. If you would like to learn more about our rescues please give us a call. Food donations are always welcomed. We look forward to meeting you!

🌟 Three Weeks of Abundance! 🌟

Time is flying, and the Abundance Litter is already 3 weeks old! 🐾 These little Tamaskan wonders are growing stronger every day, and their personalities are starting to shine.

At this stage, their eyes are wide open, they’re wobbly but determined as they take their first steps, and their little voices are getting louder as they explore the world around them. 🐶💕

Every cuddle, every step, and every moment brings them closer to their future as service dogs, where they’ll make a life-changing impact on someone’s life. Watching them grow is both humbling and inspiring.

💌 Stay tuned for more updates, milestones, and plenty of puppy cuteness as the Abundance Litter continues their incredible journey.

Caring for newborn puppies is a delicate job, and Journey is doing an incredible job as a mom. Today, we’re working together during bath time—a moment that not only helps keep the puppies clean but also strengthens the bond between us.This exercise teaches Journey that she’s not alone. As her human ally, I’m here to support her in her role as a dedicated mom. It’s all about teamwork, trust, and building a foundation of cooperation as we raise these future service dogs. 💕🌟 Why Cleanliness Matters:For newborn puppies, cleanliness is critical to their health and safety. Puppies are born with underdeveloped immune systems, so keeping them clean reduces the risk of infections and illnesses. A clean environment, combined with regular grooming by the mom (and a little help from us), ensures they grow strong and healthy.🌟 Why It’s Important for Mom:Journey is naturally instinctive about cleaning her pups, but the demands of a full litter can be overwhelming. By helping her during these moments, we’re easing her workload, reducing her stress, and reinforcing the trust and partnership that are vital for raising service dogs.🌿 Scientific Insight: Puppies rely on their mom for thermoregulation, which makes keeping them clean even more important to prevent bacteria or irritants from affecting their skin. Bathing also mimics the stimulation they’d naturally receive from their mom’s grooming, encouraging proper circulation and comfort.💌 Watching Journey allow me to assist her is a reminder of the incredible bond between humans and dogs. These little moments lay the groundwork for trust and teamwork that will serve the pups well in their future service roles.📹 Follow along as the Abundance Litter grows into the heroes they’re meant to be!

“Tamaskans are incredibly affectionate when raised with trust and care. By meeting their needs first, they naturally grow to be devoted and ready to serve. Witnessing their loyalty and love is truly special! 🐾❤️

🚨 🚨 🚨 FIREWORKS ALERT 🎃💥🎆

Get ready right now for your pups. Don’t wait until tonight.

Tighten your collars, shorten your leashes, get your walks in before sun sets.

This is the worst day for doggos in Squamish. Fireworks will be going off everywhere. Play some firework sounds in your home on a speaker, keep it low and slowly while giving treats to your dog, try a little sound desensitization, keep increasing the volume if you’re pup is ok with it. If your pup isn’t ok, then you know they’ll most likely be scared tonight.

Follow the tips on the picture. Stay safe!💖🐾

Welcome to Canine Valley

We are thrilled you found us! :)

We started working with dogs a long time ago, it’s been an incredible journey, we have had the most difficult of dogs and the easiest, to tell you the truth, the most difficult dog we’ve ever had was probably the smartest and the one we learned from the most!

In our modern age, learning how to be with dogs can be challenging! We don’t always raise them from puppies, sometimes our hearts go out and we bring a rescue in, or a dog that doesn’t match our lifestyle and more often than not, we try to squeeze them in our lifestyle and feel bad when things aren’t fitting.

Fortunately, we are excellent at what we do, our team is the best that it’s ever been and we stay on top of new techniques, new information on how we can train better, how we can improve our communication with our dogs and their owners.
