Some of you told us that a barrier to doing cooperative care is that you don’t know what it is. And that’s a fair statement!!

Cooperative care is a term popularly used to describe any training that helps animals learn to cooperate with veterinary care or grooming.

We can teach behaviours that help make exams, injections, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, nail trims, etc much easier, safer and more comfortable for the animal and the people! The behaviours we teach are fun, easy and tailored to your animal.

Cooperative care training also helps animals that are scared of handling and procedures. Again, this adds safety and ease but also helps your animal get a more accurate exam or procedure done.

One of the biggest things that cooperative care does is create more trust in humans and that has huge benefits for both vet care/grooming and the human-animal bond.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but if your dog isn’t able to sleep we might need to talk.

Not getting enough sleep is a health and wellbeing issue for dogs. Puppies and adolescent dogs often need support to be able to rest throughout the day.

Providing adequate and appropriate exercise and enrichment help support healthy rest habits. Behaviour modification and sometimes medication might be needed for dogs that can’t self regulate despite exercise and environmental support.

If your dog doesn’t sleep well, a vet consult is the best place to start and then behavioural support can be provided.

Do you have a dog or a puppy that displays resource or food guarding?

In 2025, I will be offering a 4 week guided program for dogs/puppies that guard food, chews, and other items. It’s also a great program for preventing issues in dogs/pups that may be showing some worries about their things or food.

If you’d like to learn more and see if this would be suitable for your dog, comment below and I’ll reach out!

Welcome!

I am excited to introduce Revolution Animal Behaviour Consulting and Training. I am a Fear Free Certified Animal Trainer and animal welfare advocate with a Bachelor of Science from the University of Alberta. My education includes advanced study in comparative psychology, animal behaviour, and animal welfare. I have also completed several animal care certificates for a variety of animal species. Currently, I am working on my graduate degree en route to certification as a behaviourist.

In addition to my education, I have contributed to many research projects in animal behaviour and learning as a student and as a research assistant. I have been an invited speaker at the Alberta SPCA animal welfare conference, published articles on pet care in national magazines, and have been president/training director of Alberta Schutzhund Club (a group that practices and promotes positive training in tracking, obedience, and protection) for the last 4 years. I hold several animal organization memberships including the German Shepherd Schutzhund Club of Canada, Alberta SPCA, the Animal Behavior Society, and a student member of the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behaviour (AVSAB).

My particular interests are in dog reactivity and anxiety, and building a strong foundation for puppies in order to prevent future behaviour problems. I am also interested in parrot and small animal behaviour. In addition to my graduate education, I regularly attend conferences, seminars, and classes with my own dogs to continue improving my teaching skills and methods. I stay up-to-date on the latest animal behaviour science research and apply this knowledge to work with clients. My training strategies emphasize strengthening the human-animal bond and resolving behaviour issues through positive, humane training techniques. I integrate my education and experience to implement effective behaviour modification, and to help others understand their animal’s needs.
