WORKSHOP: Nail Clipping
Does your dog hate nail clipping? Do YOU hate nail clipping?
Or, are you simply unsure how to go about it?
In this workshop, you will learn how to teach your dog to love nail clipping!
NOTE: This workshop takes place in two parts, with a week of homework in between!
Our goal is to get to clip a nail before the workshop is over - and your dog enjoying it! - but your progress will depend on how much bad experiences your dog has had in the past:

If your dog is reactive to other dogs or people, but you would still like to attend, you can bring a friend's dog to learn on, or we have a very limited number of loaner dogs available for an extra fee.
Please contact the office to inquire and/or reserve a dog before you pay for the loaner dog option!
Limited to 4 dog & handler teams, with a maximum of two adults (no children) per dog.

Today I was paid the ultimate compliment by Lisbeth Plant, owner of Cowichan Canine. She said I had helped my puppy Daphne (now 6 months old) develop into a really nice young dog. I agree! But of course I could not have done it without the wonderful folks at Cowichan Canine: professional, caring, knowledgeable and a bonus - all with a great sense of humour! Lisbeth, Stephanie, Andrea, Glenda and Steph all continue to help me guide Daphne and I am so grateful for their help, knowledge and kindness and for occasionally talking me down from a proverbial cliff! How lucky we are here in the Cowichan valley to have access to a full spectrum of resources to help guide and develop our dogs into the best they can be! Let the learning (and fun) continue!

Karen is an awesome teacher. She is caring, gentle and patient. She gave me a little extra time tohelp me because I am hard of hearing and have great difficulty hearing in class. Because of her, Monkey flourished under her care. Thank you, Karen, for all your help!
