SEMINARS
Why Dogs React
Does your dog choose fight over flight? Does your dog cower when people approach? This workshop is to help you better understand your dog’s behaviour and give you the skills to better manage it. While it can present in many forms, reactivity is a common behaviour issue. Simply put, reactivity can be defined as an overreaction to external stimuli. Dogs may be reactive to people, dogs, other animals, noises, motion, or any combination of the above. Reactive dogs may be fearful, frustrated, aggressive, and/ or over-excited.

The Art of Dog Language
Dogs communicate primarily non-verbally, and as humans we either miss or misinterpret these signals. This seminar will teach you the subtle ways dogs communicate with each other and with you. Understanding this language will help you with every aspect of dog guardianship. Join us for this human-only learning event.

And Baby Makes 4
Help your pet know what to expect when expecting as well! With a baby comes big lifestyle changes, and as your routine is drastically altered, so will your pet’s. Certified trainers, Cindy Peacock and Jessie Brown, will teach you how to prepare your pets before baby arrives and show you how to successfully introduce them to your child. If you are expecting a child or even plan on having kids within your dog’s lifetime, this is the seminar for you.
