Beyond Dog Training We LOVE helping dogs and their people understand each other better. We are recommended by many local veterinarians.

We work with puppies to prevent behavioural issues from developing and adult dogs who need guidance with current issues.

👖 Your puppy won’t stop biting your pants…and your arms!

This painful problem has a solution.

Puppies need a lot of rest.

Overtired puppies bite everything from fingers, to toes, to pants.

They also have an insatiable need for grabbing mulch, leaves, and attacking shrubs.

When your puppy wakes up from a nap, be intentional with the way you spend time with them and how long you keep them awake for.

Short training sessions are as simple as teaching your puppy how to navigate the stairs in your home or yard or introducing them to the idea of wearing a leash and collar. Sprinkle in some play. Make sure that they have had a food, water, and a potty break at the beginning and end of your session, and it’s time for another nap in their crate — before they turn into a land shark 🦈.

You can do this! Have fun.

If Barbie’s owner has visitors over for 30 minutes, Barbie will bark for at least 25 of them.

It’s loud and frustrating and then there’s the terrible feeling of knowing your dog is feeling so much stress and you’re not sure how to help her.

Greeting visitors at your door is one of the trickiest part of dog ownership.

When you’re simultaneously trying to say hello to your guests and get your dog to stop barking at them, it often feels very stressful (not to mention embarrassing.)

Our in-home sessions begin by setting dogs and owners up for a successful guest greeting.

No more jumping up. No more non-stop barking. No more chaos.

If you would like to be able to hear your visitors when they come over, schedule your free call now.

Struggling with your dog’s separation anxiety?

I get a lot of calls from pet parents who feel like prisoners in their own homes.

It’s a terrible feeling knowing that your dog is extremely stressed out when you leave them alone. Many owners will literally stop leaving home in order to stop their fur baby from suffering.

While you can work from home and have your groceries ordered to your door, this strategy is not sustainable.

Imagine not being able to take a walk around the block or attend a family member’s wedding. I’ve helped owners who have lived through both of these things.

Chrissy’s pet parents need to leave home for important medical appointments. They devised a plan of sneaking out through their garage door, but they knew they weren’t fooling their puppy because they could hear her crying.

No one wants their dog to suffer, and no one wants to be an inconsiderate neighbour.

In-home training sessions will help your dog over her separation anxiety and help you be able to leave home without worrying.

You’ll enjoy:
☀️weekly sessions
☀️homework that you and your dog will both enjoy doing
☀️email support between sessions to make sure you’re on track

You deserve peace of mind when you leave home.

Chrissy’s owner trained all of her previous dogs with hand signals.

She needed help to train her mini doxie - she’s blind in one eye and her vet can’t say for sure what she can see out of the other eye.

Her owner needed a new strategy.

Dogs are so incredibly adaptable. Rather than worrying about what she can’t do (see), we can help Chrissy by focusing on what she has:
👃🏿an incredible sense of smell (extra powerful because she’s a mini doxie!)
🐾 Chrissy can feel, so she can learn how to be guided on leash with gentle pressure and release, just like a 🐴
👂Chrissy can hear us, so we can use verbal praise (eg. Good come; good sit; etc.)

One of the things Chrissy’s owner was struggling with was teaching Chrissy how to walk nicely on the leash. Not only was Chrissy pulling her everywhere on her walks, she would growl at her owner when her owner wanted to go home.

Her owner is doing a great job learning how to walk Chrissy in a way that’s fun for both of them.

If you have a dog who is blind and aren’t sure how to communicate with them so you can enjoy your walks together, schedule your free call now.

Help! My dog pulls on the leash and I’m afraid I’m going to lose my balance and fall down!

Anyone can lose their balance and fall down or be tripped if their dog wraps them up in the leash.

As we age, these falls become more worrisome.

I’ve had owners call me for help after suffering from broken collarbones, wrists, and hips after their dog pulled them over.

In-home sessions help owners learn how to walk with their dogs happily at their side.

You won’t have to worry about your dog causing you to lose your balance anymore.

You’ll enjoy:
☀️weekly sessions
☀️homework that you and your dog will both enjoy doing
☀️email support between sessions to make sure you’re on track

You deserve to get outside and get moving with your dog.

Me: It’s time for fetch and tug. Where are my mittens? Oooh! They’re on the heat vent. They’ll be so warm. Yayyyyy….ohhhhh! Hi Boulder ❤️

Me putting on old mittens with holes for fetch and tug in the snow, reminding myself to put both the old pair and the new pair on separate heat vents from now on — he can’t be in two places at the same time 😆

This may be the most important thing you read about dogs today ⬇️

Dog training is fun!

A lot of owners are worried that dog training will be a drag — it shouldn’t be.

Time spent with your dog is an awesome gift. You should be enjoying every second.

Dog training shouldn’t feel tedious or boring.

If you’re feeling that way, here are three tips to help shake things up and start enjoying your life with your dog again:

⚽️ Play with your dog — playing with your dog should feel fun and freeing. You’re probably already training them while you’re playing and you don’t even realize it. Every time you ask them to drop the toy, you’re training. If your dog won’t drop it and is jumping all over you, schedule your free call now ☎️

🥘 Mix things up — Whatever your goal is with your dog it can be worked on during play. You may play fetch for five minutes, during which your dog is learning not to jump up on you, not to grab the toy out of your hand, etc. After that, you may practice teaching them to walk on a nice loose leash in your backyard. During your next play session, you may play tug and teach your dog how to lay down, and then do a few recall reps. No two training sessions have to look alike. You’ll have more fun and so will your dog.

🛟 Agility for fun — learning a new skill alongside your dog is a really fun way to enjoy your time together. You don’t need expensive agility equipment to have a good time. My clients have used household items like brooms to create little jumps for their dogs.

The older we get the less playing we do. When you mix play with training the result is more joy in your daily life with your dog.

When you’re having more fun, you’ll be more relaxed and so will your dog. Before you know it your dog is well trained and you have a beautiful life together.

Happy Howloween 🌕🐺🎃

Give yourself permission to do what is right for yourself and your dog this evening.

Remember, our goal is always to set our dogs up for success not failure.

Not all dogs are social butterflies and that’s okay.

Many dogs will prefer to relax in their crate vs greeting trick or treaters at your front door.

You can even block your stairs to prevent people from knocking on your door all evening.

Have a safe and spooky Howloween 🎃

If you’re tired of your dog doing these 3 things while you’re trying to cook dinner or make kid’s lunches, placework can help.

1. Counter surfing - otherwise known as stealing food from the countertops (and tables)
2. Jumping on your kids while they’re on the sofa
3. Barking out the window at every little (and big) sound

Placework teaches your dog how to switch off and relax. Not only will it stop those nuisance behaviours, it will help your dog feel less anxious and stressed.

In-home training sessions will help you begin this path to whole home harmony.

You’ll enjoy:
☀️weekly sessions
☀️homework that you and your dog will both enjoy doing
☀️email support between sessions to make sure you’re on track

You deserve to have your household go from chaos to calm.
