Barking & Jumping Up
Barking and jumping up are two of the most common concerns owners have about their dogs – and we offer specialised and focused help for just these two issues, but general leash manners are also included in this course.
Lisbeth Plant, owner and founder of Cowichan Canine, leads this class and will show you how to handle various types of barking, including demand barking, attention-seeking barking, and barking when the doorbell rings.
You will learn to understand why your barks, jumps up on people and pulls on leash and develop the skills and knowledge to redirect your dog towards more desirable behaviours.
Please note your dog must be friendly to other dogs and people.
To ensure lots of personal attention these classes are semi-private. Therefore, classes are limited to two dogs and their handlers. We start this class as soon as we have two people signed up.

I have taken my Pembroke Welsh Corgi through Puppy Classes, The Foundation Programme, Starters Agility and we are now in Advanced Agility. The overall results have been excellent. Reba is now competing at Agility Trials and will soon move from Starters there to Advanced. Lisbeth, Bev, and Karen helped immensely along the way, but Reba's Agility success is solely due to Jody. She is amazing in so many ways - knowledgeable, patient, able to adapt her communication to different clients at different levels beautifully, and so much more. She is encouraging and Reba runs to see her when we attend class. A big Paws Up to Jody and CC.

Hello Cowichan Canine,
We thought you might enjoy an update on Sigrid. We went to the Port Alberni Sanction Match. We are so thankful we did Puppy Start Right and are in Foundations 1. The training really pulled together in this environment.
Sigrid experienced crating, grooming, strange people touching and examining, strange dogs, a new place with strange acoustics, angry dogs, scared dogs, new commands, and a show lead.
Her socialization has given her confidence in spades! She handled it all like a champ and she truly enjoyed herself as we were hoping she would. We could not have done this without the foundations training to settle and also to pay attention in a distracting environment. It was helpful for her to be used to coexisting next to other focused dogs without greeting.
Thank you so much for all she is learning.
