Community Services by Cowichan Canine
We are active in the community and support the following not-for-profit organizations and activities:
We sponsor dogs awaiting adoption at the Cowichan & District SPCA by giving them free spots in class if they have a volunteer to train with them, as well as a one-hour free post-adoption private consultation (voucher from Cowichan & District SPCA required as proof of adoption).
We sponsor our local 4H dog club to train at Cowichan Canine under Glenda.

My big triumph was on the beach two weeks ago. Arwyn gets to be off leash at the beach (she's been on the long line on forest hikes for months now) and there was a deer eating seaweed... the dogs, of course, blasted off after the deer up the steep bank... I called... AND THEY CAME BACK!!
A miracle.
Well, the miracle of training.

We brought our dog to Cowichan Canine to help us better support his socialization and were very happy with actionable advice and info we received through the Behavioural Evaluation and subsequent private lessons. We saw swift and lasting results! Thanks so much!
