My Training Philosophy

My approach to training and behaviour modification is a holistic one, looking at all aspects of a dog's life. We take into account each dog’s physical and mental health as well as their unique personality and needs, to ensure sustainable results and harmonious relationships. 

I take pride in employing modern, force-free training methods that prioritize positive reinforcement and fully align with the principles of LIMA (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) and the Humane Hierarchy. We do not use aversives such as e-collars, prong, and choke collars, nor do we employ outdated training practices. Instead, we focus on the science of learning to create lasting results and strong bonds between our clients and their canine companions.

Christine was wonderful in helping Ren when she joined our family as her 3rd home as a 6 month old puppy. The classes allowed Christine to learn about Ren and how we could best provide what Ren needed to become a more confident and social dog and the steps to take building needed skills. Ren loves the treats as motivation for sure! Thank you Christine.
