Dog training is not just about getting your dog to behave a certain way, but it is also a way to bond and have fun with your dog - My method of training is motivational and based on positive reinforcement, using treats, praise and reward - if food treats are used as the reward, weaning of the treats is an important part of the program. PROGRAMS/SERVICES OFFERED (prices listed below)

1- Private in

-home coaching sessions: I help coach you how to manage problem behaviours and help you teach your dog manners in the comfort of your own home, around your schedule.

Today is National Pet Bird day. We always see pictures of dogs and cats, do any of you have pet birds??

Aurora, do you remember the first cockatiel we had? This bird was AWESOME!

I'd have a bird again, but I think Foxy would probably try to eat it every chance she had! 🤷‍♀️

Dog training is such a diverse profession in that there is no one method and no governing agency that says what is right or wrong. Some swear by punishment and corrective collars (i.e choke, prong, halti), some don't.

What people must keep in mind is that dog training needs to be, not only safe and comfortable for the person, but also for the dog. If you're not comfortable with the methods used by your trainer, whether with your dog or with others' dogs, then search for a different trainer. If your dog is stressed and not enjoying the training, then they're not learning, they're simply shutting down. A trainer that uses positive methods will pick up on those discomforts and work to make changes to relieve that stress...not force the dog to deal with it and punish them until they surrender.

Here at Pawsitive Gems, we use positive reinforcement and games to work with our dogs. We want to build confidence and trust between you and your dog!

I am sharing this letter that was released by the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists because I have seen the training videos; I have seen the discomfort and stress exhibited by the dogs; I have felt uncomfortable and upset with some of the videos. I think it is important to remember that training is a process that takes time and quick fixes are usually just a bandaid that will eventually fall off to possibly reveal a much more severe issue ❤️

Do your research before hiring a trainer and follow your heart! It is your fur baby we are talking about!

Halloween is only 2 months away! For some, this is the best time of year, but for some dogs and their family, this is a stressful time: the constant foot traffic in front of the house, the never-ending knocks on the door, all the people in costumes.

Some choose to not give out any candy, some will take the dog to a family member where the hustle and bustle of Halloween is not as intense, some will lock their dog in a room for the evening.

What if I told you that THERE IS something you can do - Yes, even if your dog is older - to help reduce the anxieties surrounding Halloween!?

**You could get a FREE in-person training session with me!**

Hey everybody! Does your dog do any of the following?

- Jumping up/scratching/whining at you while you're preparing their food
- Getting extremely excited when the leash comes out that you can't get it on without getting into a "wrestling match"
- Looking to bolt the instant the door opens?
- Jumping up on the bed/couch the instant you or someone else gets on (or tries to get on?)
- Constantly at your feet when you're in the kitchen or eating?

If you answered yes to ANY of these, send me a PM to find out how you can get a free in-person session - This will be on a First Come First Serve basis, so don't wait!! *some conditions may apply -

If your answer was NO to all of these, but there is another issue you're dealing with, be sure to set my business page as a favourite so that you get notifications - I'll have more opportunities for free sessions coming soon!

**Of course, you're encouraged to contact me anytime to help ensure that unwanted behaviours don't get worse!

Anybody who has had training with me knows I love using long training leashes (aka long lines).

Using long lines enables you to practice recalls, yard boundaries, leash manners and much more, all while ensuring your dog can never get too far!

I know it is difficult to find them in town, so here is a link to many different types on Amazon! For the smaller dogs, 30 feet is sufficient, but you could go up to 50ft. For the larger dogs, 50 ft is also great, but you may choose to go a little longer!
