I teach dog owners how to discover their dog's SUPER POWERS and create an ethical canine relationship

I provide customized in person private dog training to teach owners how to go above and beyond with their dog training goals. I offer in person services to residents located within a 30 minute drive of Midland Ontario. If you live out of our service area, we may be able to accommodate you virtual

ly or on weekends with a travel free that will be based on distance. All new clients will start with a free phone call to go over your goals & discover what your customized program will look like. This is an opportunity to get to know one another, ask questions and discuss pricing and your ability to commit to the training process. Modern dog training is different than the way we have raised and trained dog in the past. The dog owners that have success in reaching their goals are dedicated and diligently working on the training process and understand it takes time to get long lasting results. If you’re looking for a quick fix or shortcut you will not be able to get them using ethical training methods. To get long lasting results that support a relationship based on real respect you will need to commit to the training process which involves patience. Many serious behaviour problems that include aggression or anxiety can take months or even years to resolve. Minor and common issues or goals can often be reached in 2-3 in person appointments if you follow the directions and protocols in your training plan.

Have you ever had satellite TV?

You have over 200+ channels but you spent hours just flipping through them and still end up feeling bored.

This is exactly what having an overflowing toy bin feels like for your dog.

There is too much choice available at anytime they want so it loses value.

To keep your dog toys more interesting than your chair legs, try rotating the toys that are in the bin each day.

You can also remove the bin completely and "surprise" your dog with one of their regular toys by only bringing it out for a few hours a day then removing it.

If you "charge up" old boring toys by interacting with your dog they will also hold more value and will be more interested in using them.

Your new dog isn't your other dog.

Not accepting this can be a huge block in allowing a true bond with your new dog.

I understand that it can be frustrating because your new dog will likely pose new challenges that your old dog didn't.

I understand that sometimes we have an expectation of what "our dog" should behave like and how we should experience them and when these expectations aren't fulfilled it can be very disappointing and frustrating,

However, your new dog is an unique individual and has their own unique challenges that require you to do things differently.

Accept this and commit to learning new skills and going with the new flow.

Let go of the old flow and idea that your other or old dog is not your new dog or you will never reach any of your goals with them.

Dogs could be considered more evolved than us

Yes, your butt licking, p**p rolling sidekick may be able to teach you a thing or two about what is really important in life.

You just need to tune into the wisdom they bring.

Dogs as a species are incredible as their goal is to always find balance and keep the peace.

Those who work with behaviour are familiar with what is known as calming signals - this is a secret language that dogs use to diffuse conflict and tension in social situations.

They don't hold grudges like we do.

Dogs have a truly inspiring ability to let things go and forgive that we should strive to match.

If your dog could give you advise it would be, shake it off, forgive and get ready for a new adventure!

Note to my senior dog:

I don't mind taking an extra walk or two each day for you because you can't keep up like you used to with the other dogs.

I don't mind slowing down on my walks to see, touch and experience new things that I never knew were there because I'm always going so fast.

I don't mind making special trips with you into indoor spaces when its raining hard or too hot or cold to make sure you're comfortable and safe.

The experiences you have given me as you age aren't inconveniences by any means.

You are not a burden.

You have given me many opportunities to see the and experience a world with a dog in a different way.

I am so grateful that you're still here with me and keep showing me new ways to appreciate the world.

Merci my senior soul sister xo

There are differences between a dog behaviour trainer and a dog trainer.

Most of my cases are behaviour modification focused vs skill building focused and this is the area I have more experience and expertise. I do however, have experience and success in basic skill building and obedience to suit the average pet dog owners needs.

A bulk of the clients that contact me want to stop unwanted or unruly behaviour and in many cases are looking to get results instantly without sacrificing too much time or making big life changes.

The average dog owner sees other dog owners who have well behaved dogs and watch videos of other dog owners in group classes or doing down stays and believe that having basic manners training skills is the way to change their unwanted behaviour.

The truth is, it's not. Many dogs who have basic training will bite people. Many dogs who can show off tricks can suffer from serious anxiety most days.

My goal as a canine behaviour trainer is to make long lasting results so I don't have to come back.

I'm not here to teach you a quick fix or to band-aid a problem you're facing with your dog and my behaviour modification cases often do not focus on obedience cues.

I'm here to create a training plan & help you navigate the life changes you'll need to implement to get those results which is very hard for the average person to commit to.

If you're ready to change your dogs emotions or reduce anxiety or aggression so you can improve both of your quality of life and build a closer bond - DM me today!

Did you know that puppies need 18 hours of sleep each day?

Our canine friends under 20 weeks of age require a lot of rest to be able to grow.

That means out of 24 hours, they need to rest for 18 hours.

We had to share our cute new client Rocky with you as he is a sleep master!

If you just brought home a new puppy DM me to get your foundation booked in before adolescence begins!

I will teach you how to utilize the most important time to create a confident adult canine.

I was reminded over the last few days that soull families can come in unexpected forms!

Sometimes, our dogs are the ones who show us the unconditional love we need and desire.

Sometimes our friends can take this magical spot too!

For me, I keep finding love in the most unexpected places ❀️

Thank you to all my true friends and fur family for being in my life!

I am forever grateful for your ongoing support πŸ™

Dogs aren't born knowing how to act around children

In fact, younger children are very similar to to drunk adults for nervous dogs!

They make unpredictable movements and sounds and will miss subtle stress or fear cues or not care.

If you have a dog that is nervous around kids I would also bet they're not going to be pleased with you or your friends when you're intoxicated either.

If your dog is forced to have experiences where they don't feel safe and their stress signals are ignored over and over that means there is a high risk of them having to make their feelings more clear.

A warning growl might now become a bite!

I start all new clients off with a behaviour assessment where we determine your dog's personal tolerances and stressors so these type of situations can be more predictable.

This way you can set your dog up for success and manage situations that you know will make them feel stressed out or scared.

Did you know a huge motivator for becoming a dog trainer is to educate people about puppies and early development stages?!

I spent a few years working with aggression specialists and some very intense behaviours.

When I took a deep dive into canine behaviour issues I was surprised to find how many issues could be avoided with putting more focus on early canine development.

If you have a new puppy or are planning to bring a new puppy into your home it's best to start them off on the right paw so to speak.

I have programs for puppies that include behavioursl preventives, how to best utilize socialization periods and building life skills that are tailor made for your new best furrrend!

Our puppy programs start for dogs as early at 8 weeks!

Get a leg up on your dogs future before less than idea behaviours behin to manifest!

Incredible transformations that warm my heart ❀️

This is Dovey, a young Doberman rescue who had had many experiences in previous homes that made her unsure of humans' intentions.

When I observed her, I could tell she wanted to connect so badly with her new humans but wasn't confident or trusting enough due to her past to get there.

After implementing some protocols that made Dovey feel in control of her personal space, real magic started to happen!

Dovey is now seeking out human affection regularly and has learned to trust touch and human interactions.

We are feeling so grateful to have assisted in helping this girl and her guardians learn how to build trust which is the foundation for a beautiful healthy relationship that Docey deserves.

Running two programs to resch those goals can be a challenge.

We are here to help!

My heart is so full πŸ’“ 🐺

Meet Bella and Gay, truly an unstoppable force that we started working with earlier this summer.

Bella is Gay's right-pawed lady and together has truly made a quantum leap in their progress for their service dog goals over the summer.

Every time I came to work with them, I was so proud with how much progress they had made together.

These two are a dream team!

Bella's focus while walking with Gay has dramatically improved, and she can't take her on her walker, as well as alongside her wheelchair with ease now.

I was beyond flattered to assist these two and can't wait to see how they flourish even more in the future so they can enjoy many more lovely days and experiences together.

(Thank you for this opportunity!)

If you are searching for assistance with your service dog goals, please reach out so we can let you know how we can assist you, too!

Do you feel like the price of dog training is too high?

Are you a trainer who feels guilty for charging your clients rates that are congruent with the value you bring?

Hiring a qualified and experienced dog trainer has the power to truly transform the relationship you and your family have with your dog.

Which can mean decreasing stress in your daily life, helping you feel empowered instead of embarrassed about your dog's behaviour, and increasing your own as well as your dog's quality of life overall by creating more space for relaxation and decompression.

This can be life altering.

What a good dog trainer does these days is more than just "dog training"

If you're a dog owner looking for a deal theres a lot of people in social media groups or at the dog park who have "had dogs all their lives" and are thrilled to give you free advice.

If you're a dog trainer who charges low rates please understand you're undermining the importance of this industry and making it impossible for the public to see the value in what you do if you do not.

You get what you pay for.

You and your dog deserve a good dog trainer!

I am currently accepting new clients - DM me to find out how working with me can change your life forever!

The death of the guru – a new era of self empowerment in dog training

We have recently entered a new era of learning and self development where the majority of people are no longer searching outside of themselves to find the answers they seek.

Due to the exposure of corruptions and abuse of power of many of our systems and structures we based our culture and beliefs on like religion and celebrities, this has forced people to no longer feel drawn to worship something outside of themselves.

We are evolving as a collective and are now looking inwards for inspiration, strength and intuition to guide us to the answers we seek.

Another huge driving force and factor that plays into this change of mindset is the internet and it’s accessibility.

We’re living during a new paradigm where most of the world is online. This has created endless opportunities to learn about virtually anything you like, anytime you like. People have more options to perfect their craft without having to pay an industry guru thousands of dollars to learn their β€œsecrets”

This directly effects the dog world for both owner, and trainer.

People are now self empowered and driven to seek out a trainer who will help them find the missing puzzle pieces they’re seeking to create a whole picture. We are no longer worshipping and following every word and piece of advice given by trainers that we wish to learn more from.

Our crafts are now more customized to reflect who we are and the natural and unique talents we can bring to the table, instead of replicating what we believed in the past to be β€œperfection”, or β€œthe only way”

This has created more choice for trainers, and dog owners overall.
I have to say – I am all for this!

As a trainer, I do not like when clients or other trainers are obsessed or worship me. I find it unhealthy and makes me feel uncomfortable and want to disconnect.

The truth is, I have found more growth and success by learning to truly worship & respect myself.

And you can too- you just need to believe in yourself and make space for you super powers to blossom!
