Some of the services we provide

Puppy 1-2-1 Training
Our puppy training is designed for you and your puppy! We cover important life skills, such as focus, calmness and disengagement. We train the foundations for loose lead walking and recall and how to cope with all the distractions life has to offer! Building a happy, calm dog and an unbeatable relationship with you.
I come to you or offer online training via zoom. Throughout the training you have my constant support- like having a coach in your pocket to help you through the many things that pop up throughout puppyhood!

Scent-Work and Gun-dog for fun
Scent-work is an amazing activity for our furry friends! It not only promotes calmness and boosts confidence, but it's also a great bonding experience for both the dog and the owner. This activity can be done anywhere, making it a perfect option for dogs that find the world a bit scary. Plus, learning scent detection is a fun and enjoyable experience for everyone involved!
Gun-dog for fun taps into those natural breed instincts, such as retrieving and gives your dog another enjoyable outlet for those natural behaviours they so enjoy.

Man-trailing-recreational search and rescue for pet dogs
Man-trailing is such an exciting, enjoyable and addictive activity teaching your dog to search for a specific person using the scent in the environment and a scent article.
It is such a great mental workout for our dogs as they are using their nose. It is low impact. It is working one dog at a time and on a long line.
Dogs get such a buzz out of finding that trail layer! And they are often wiped out and resting the rest of the day!
