Kids & Dogs
One of the most important issues for new owners is for their dogs to coexist peacefully with their children. Although it may not seem like a particularly pressing issue when your dog is a puppy, certain issues may follow them into adulthood that will need to be addressed and it is best to simply prevent them.

Separation Anxiety
Separation anxiety is stress that is caused when a dog is left alone at home or even when their owner leaves a room. The most common signs of dogs exhibiting this behaviour are barking, howling, accidents or destruction in the home. This workshop addresses ways to resolve this issue and help your dog feel more comfortable on this own.

Recall Training
Teaching your dog to come when called is of vital importance for both their safety as well as creating a less anxious atmosphere when on walks. All owners should strive to trust their dogs and consistent recall is a big part of this though it is not the simplest to teach and many find themselves needing assistance. This workshop is exactly for those types of cases.

Cooperation Between Your Dog and Other Dogs
Just like kids, our dogs are known to misbehave sometimes. Repeat conflicts with other dogs however are a serious issue especially when they are unpredictable. When in parks, or on the street or even in the home, we all want to foster a sense of cooperation between our dog and other dogs. As this cannot be accomplished quite so easily in all cases and this workshop seeks to help resolve this.

Chaos at the Front Door
Barking, over exuberance or even dashing out are all examples of very common behaviours that dogs exhibit at the door. We all want a calm household and that includes a dog that knows the proper way to greet visitors. With training and management this can be achieved.
