Buyer Beware! It's an Unregulated Industry!
In an unregulated industry,
who are you going to trust with your dog?
At Cowichan Canine we provide modern, science-based training for dogs by accredited instructors. This means positive reinforcement methods only, using rewards like food, treats and play. We do not use aversive methods or harsh corrections or subscribe to outmoded and discredited concepts such as dominance theory.
Established in 2009 and with over 3,000 clients to date, we have a purpose-built training facility in Cobble Hill, BC, and offer a range of services.
Our classes help puppies and young dogs get the best possible start in life, as well as dogs of all ages gain a foundation of good manners in our Puppy Start Right and our Pet Manners classes. You can further develop the bond with your dog via a variety of fun, enrichment activities such as for example our supervised play groups, Canine Good Neighbour/Advanced Pet Manners, Agility, and Scent Detection.
We offer small, personalized classes, workshops and seminars, and private training and behaviour modification consultations with a certified behaviour consultant.
We are accredited by the BC SPCA's AnimalKind programme.
We are active in the community and support the following not-for-profit organizations and activities:
Cowichan Canine Dog Bite Prevention Education
PACTA BC (Professional Animal Care and Training Association of BC)
The Anglican Church of St John the Baptist, Cobble Hill

I found COWICHAN CANINE by accident. It was the best accident I ever had. CC above all has made me a better and more aware pet owner. They have opened my eyes farther than I thought I could see. I am grateful for my new knowledge and grateful That my puppy/dog will have the best education to guide him through his life happily. Thank you Lisbeth Jody Glenda Stephanie and especially Nancy for immediately catching my errors.
