Expert-Led Training: Proven Methods, Real Transformations

Whether your dog is having problems in the ring or struggling in daily life, the key to addressing problematic behaviour can be understanding and improving the dog’s emotional state. That's where counterconditioning and desensitization (CC&DS) come in. CC&DS can help dogs get into a better “headspace” – and that can mean more engagement and focus when it really counts.

Are you overwhelmed trying to come up with or at a loss for new ideas to stimulate your furry friend’s little mind? Is the weather too hot or miserable outside but your dog has too much energy to stay inside? Well, it's time to unleash their inner Einstein with our class on teaching cognitive skills to dogs! We'll show you how to train your pup to read, yes READ! They'll be reading War and Peace in no time. Okay, maybe not War and Peace, but we'll definitely start with some basic words and build from there.

3 WEEK CLASS - Does your dog seem to “ignore” cues you know you taught? Do they respond beautifully at home but fall apart in new places? Or do they latch onto one part of a training setup and miss everything else?

This course is different from most foundation classes. Rather than focusing on obstacles or traditional flatwork, this class teaches the critical foundation skills (the “glue”) that will help your dog succeed as a learner in agility classes, seminars, and high-energy training environments.
