There is still space in our Sept 26 start Teenage Meltdown classes and Stranger Things is filling fast!

Saturday Mornings at Eastminster United Church at 310 Danforth.

Teenage Meltdown is for those over the top dogs 5 months and up that are: overaroused, frustrated and seem to have lost their brain cells...they kind of have done. We focus on problem solving skills and practical exercises to get you through the hardest parts of adolescence. 6 weekly group classes AND five weekly zoom sessions

Stranger Things is for dogs that worry about people or are reactive/fearful in general. Live decoys to work on desensitization, individual advice and extensive body language coaching to help you and your dog learn to move through those fears and develop confidence and coping skills. 6 weekly group sessions AND five weekly zoom sessions.
These are not your average dog training classes!

Had a client I worked with almost ten years ago message me to tell me she said goodbye to her dog, Molly Whuppie, this week and to thank me for helping her keep Molly when they were struggling with her stranger aggression and prey drive.

Molly had an owner who knew that slow was fast with fear based issues and Molly lived with kittens and her kids for many years.

Very few clients think to let their dog pros (trainers, walkers and groomers and so on) know years on when their pups pass and we so appreciate when they do.

These are dogs and people we got close to, even if only for a short time. To know we made a difference is so rewarding and to have a chance to say that their pup's were good dogs and will be missed is a blessing.

Run free Molly Whuppie and i hope you get all the cheesy eggs you want wherever you are.

Are you interested in learning more about dogs and body language? Comfortable with dogs and able to follow directions?

We are looking for some volunteer decoys for the Stranger Things class starting on the 19th in the East York/Riverdale/Danforth area.

You don't have to commit to any number of sessions, variety is good for this class. Stranger Things is a class for dogs reactive to or fearful of people.

The gig involves helping with class setup and takedown but
for the most part it is standing, walking or adding other movement to the environment while the dog is a safe distance away.

The rest of the time you can learn to see what the dogs are doing and why and have the opportunity to learn a lot about behaviour.

If you are interested or even want to volunteer and see what the class is about before signing your own dog up contact me at [email protected] or via FB Messenger and we can chat!

Register now for the Sept 19 class! 11 hours of learning for you and your dog.

Teenage Meltdown is a class built around learning to manage the big feelings and common behaviours of Teenage dogs and prevent them continuing into adulthood. Puppies and Dogs 5 months and up are welcome, because yes, some dogs are kind of eternal teenagers. 😁

6 in person group classes.
5 one hour zoom sessions.

If you have a dog who is struggling with overexcitment, impulsivity, lack of focus and big feelings this class is for you.
Counter surfing? Covered.
Won't drop something or is resource guarding? Covered.
Problems with other dogs at the dog park? Covered.

Many things that pet parents struggle with during their young dog's developmental stages to adulthood are predictable and manageable if you know what to do and why they are happening. This is what this class is for.

It is a class that is challenging to the human and to the dog so come prepared to learn, have fun and work hard!
