Our workshops are designed to give you and your dog the opportunity to try a different dog sport or activity without having to commit to a 6 week class.
Or, a way to spend time fully immersed in one of your favourite dog sports or activities.
We also have sessions designed to address specific training exercises or behaviour topics.
Most of our sessions offer both working spots (1 person + 1 dog) or observer spots (1 person, no dog).
Upcoming Events
Does your dog jump on everyone they meet? Counter surf? Bark for attention? Drag you through the front door and then around the neighbourhood on every walk? These are only some of the topics that will be covered in this 3 hour Q&A session on how to improve your dog’s basic manners. Participants will have the opportunity to send in questions/topics they would like to have covered at the time of registration.
Please note: complex behaviour topics such as separation anxiety, reactivity towards humans and/or other dogs, resource guarding etc. will NOT be covered during this session
This session is for humans only
