Loki is a senior bunny that needs medication twice a day. This makes it particularly challenging to go away on holidays, even for an overnighter!

When implementing treatment plans for pets (whether working on behaviour or disease) building a trusting relationship is critical. This makes providing veterinary care incredibly easy for both myself and the patient.

For Loki, this means sharing some sprigs of parsley ❤️.

Testimonial Tuesday 🇨🇦🦜

The name of my cockatiel is Buddy and he came to live with me as a young Lutino male at the end of 2023. I’ve never had any children, however quite a few cockatiels who were like my kids. Right from the start Buddy had tons of energy and was trying to be the alpha with me and this never happened before with any of my birds. I was at the point of returning him to the pet store when I found Rebecca to help me understand how to work with my amazing Buddy and his Aries personality. I can’t say enough about Rebecca and her training sessions and all the wealth of information she provides. I HIGHLY recommend her…enjoying the wonderful connection with Buddha more and more each day❤️

When I adopted Sesame, he did have a few issues. My main issue is that he is dog reactive. When working with Rebecca, she provided me with positive & fear free techniques. After each session, she sends you a detailed report with a plan and a lot of information to continue with your training. Rebecca is very patient, compassionate & knowledgeable. I would highly recommend working with her!

Weigh-ins should be done regularly (I suggest weekly) and not just when they're at the vet.

Mike must have been a surgeon in his past life, so delicately tearing his bag to not spill the goods.

Foraging baggies, another one of my favorites. You can get them in packs of 100 +, fill them with whatever bird safe items you have stashed away along with food. Twist the bag shut and tie it off with paper rope.

In this bag we have paper cups with , shredded paper and blocks of wood.

We had the pleasure of working with Rebecca for in-home training with our 1.5-year-old Jack Russell, Nellie, and we couldn’t be happier! Rebecca was amazing—professional, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what she does. She focused on basic commands using positive behavior-reward techniques, and Nellie responded so well. It was clear from the start that Rebecca truly knows what she’s doing and does it with love. She also gave us practical tools and guidance to continue the training on our own. Nellie absolutely adored her! Highly recommend!
