DOG SERVICES

Group Adventures (2 hours minimum)

We explore local parks, trails and beaches in small groups whereby safety and individual attention are a priority.  These outings are designed for dogs that are well socialized with other dogs, people and life in general, and the goal for each dog is to enjoy a fair amount of off leash fun and play time. We incorporate obedience and agility exercises in our excursions and we work hard to establish and encourage proper pack rules and manners. We believe that keeping order and balance guarantees that every member of the pack will have fun and come home happy and tired.

Please note that the above-mentioned time goes 100% towards fun in the outdoors and does not include pick-up/drop-off or driving time.  One other thing to mention; we are not clock watchers, so often times we extend our outings just because the weather is spectacular, the smells are delicious and the company is fantastic! On average, your dog will be out of the house between 3-4 hours.

BONUS FEATURE:  We take photos during most group walks and will e-mail them to you; this way you can become part of your dog's adventures.  Ask our existing clients, they love this feature!


$35 per adventure

Meet the Pack 


Training 

We can greatly assist you with learning to understand why your dog displays certain behaviour, the meaning of it, and help you in working with your dog to achieve wanted results.  Some of the most common areas we get called in for are:

-        Your dog has poor leash manners which make daily walks unpleasant and not enjoyable
-        Your dog doesn't listen to you
-        Your dog doesn't come when called

-        Your dog gets very excited when meeting people and jumps uncontrollably     
-        Your dog barks excessively in certain situations or when left alone
-        Your dog suffers from separation anxiety and/or is destructive when left alone
-        Your dog is fearful and/or aggressive towards certain people, objects or in particular situations
-        Your dog has taken over your house and life and you don't know how to create balance

Our first meeting consists of an in-home consultation & assessment.  A detailed questionnaire that is emailed to you beforehand serves as discussion material to establish short and long term goals specifically geared towards managing your individual situation. In addition, you will be provided with written material covering basic canine body language and pack leadership principles which we invite you to study on your own time.
We train people how to use positive re-enforcement methods by conditioning their dog's wanted behaviour which will result into creating a confident, well mannered and reliable animal companion. 


$90 - In-home Consultation & Assessment (please allow up to 2 hours)
$75 - per 1 training session ( 1.5 hrs )

Training Walks (only offered to people who have previously enrolled in private training with us)

Training walks focus on continual practice of previously learned vital commands & manners while being exercised at the same time.  Training walks generally cover the following practice areas:

-        Walking on loose leash without pulling
-       
 Watch -  dog makes eye contact on command
-        
Sit, stay & come, practiced on a long lead.     


After each training walk, we will provide follow-up through conversation or e-mail and will inform you about your dog's progression including possible tips for you to implement into your daily routine.
