New to dog training? Feeling unsure where to start?

Let’s take the confusion out and put the connection in, right from your own home.

If you just brought home a new pup (or adult rescue!) and find yourself Googling questions and receiving inconsistent answers, I can help.

No fancy equipment. No judgment. Just practical, step-by-step help that makes sense — and works.
I can introduce you to dog body language so you know what your dog is trying to tell you, help you fine-tune your routine and to teach you how to have an enriching and fulfilling life with your dog.

Learn how to:
Teach calm, confident behaviour
Prevent future problems
Build a bond based on trust and understanding
Training doesn’t need to be confusing. I’ll guide you every step of the way and set you up for success.

A little behind the scenes of what it is like to run a dog training business solo.

This week, I received some negative reviews on Google from people who have used my services, as well as from those who inquired but didn't receive a response within an acceptable timeframe. They had identified my business as a "red flag" for animal care. I created this blog to share some insight into what it's like to run a dog business solo. As many of you know, I spent two decades working with technology, and now my heart is with the animals, not emails. Some may see it as a weakness. The thing is, I can do both and have for over a decade, I am just not going to do it at the speed of Amazon Prime.

This blog is an insight the daily life and responsibilities of Carey at

Happy Mother’s Day to All the Pet Moms!

Today, we celebrate the women whose love knows no bounds—not just for their human families, but for their furry, feathered, and four-legged companions too.

To the ones who rise early for walks, brave the rain for potty breaks, trim tiny nails, scoop p**p, train with patience, cuddle through storms, and advocate fiercely for animals.

Being a pet mom means being a protector, a playmate, a teacher, a healer. It’s showing up, day after day, with compassion and care for a creature who depends on you.

I am blessed to be surrounded by animal-loving hearts who make the world kinder.

Here’s to the connection we share with animals; it is pure, healing, and full of grace.

Happiest of Mother’s Day for my farm momma, Sweetpea the momma goat, Momma Judy the potbellied pig, all my hens who are creating a next generation of healthy, fun-loving chicks, and my two queen bees that mother thousands of bee children with love and care.

Happy Thanksgiving!

This Thanksgiving, I’m reminded of the many things I’m grateful for—especially the loyal, loving, and joyful dogs that make our lives better every single day. Dogs teach us the true meaning of unconditional love, patience, and living in the moment. Whether they greet us with wagging tails after a long day or keep us laughing with their quirky antics, dogs bring warmth and happiness into our homes.

May your Thanksgiving be filled with gratitude, joy, and plenty of puppy cuddles!

With love and appreciation,

Carey from

🧡 Honouring National Day for Truth and Reconciliation 🧡

Today, we pause to reflect and honour the resilience of Indigenous Peoples across Canada. As a First Nations dog trainer and hobby farmer, this day holds deep meaning for me and many others, as we acknowledge the painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools on Indigenous communities.

The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day, is an opportunity to remember the children who never returned home and to recognize the survivors of these institutions. It’s a day for learning, listening, and coming together to create a path forward based on truth and healing.

How Can We Acknowledge This Day?

Wear Orange: Wearing an orange shirt symbolizes our collective recognition of the harms caused by residential schools and our commitment to ongoing reconciliation.

Learn and Listen: Take time to educate yourself about the true history of residential schools, the stories of survivors, and the lasting impacts on Indigenous communities.

Support Indigenous Voices: Whether it’s through local businesses, artists, or organizations, supporting Indigenous creators and leaders helps amplify our voices.

Reflect and Engage: Today is not just about remembering; it's about actively engaging in conversations that promote healing and understanding.

Together, we can create a future grounded in respect and reconciliation. Let’s honour this day with open hearts and a commitment to listening, learning, and supporting Indigenous communities.
