Online Training
Live online dog training lessons are appropriate for the same issues as in-person, in-home dog training, and can be chosen for convenience or to save money. It is particularly suitable during an epidemic, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, when in-person consultations are not an option.
You get the same expert training advice with our in-person training
Just like with an in-person, in-home lesson, we go through the same steps:
- Behaviour Questionnaire and analysis
- Behaviour Modification goals and priorities
- Educational materials
- Homework
Instead of practical demonstration with your dog, your instru.ctor will demonstrate with her own dog, and then supervise your copying the exercise with your own dog.
After the lessons, you will receive written instructions and educational materials as and when appropriate. At the conclusion and if appropraite, your veterinarian may receive a letter of information, outlining what we have been working on, or we may decide together that communication or consultation with your veterinarian at other times during our work together would be appropriate.
Advantages
- No tech savvy needed (all you need is a computer/ laptop/ tablet with camera and microphone).
- Honours social distancing.
- If your dog is worried about strangers, he won't be during online training.
- We can see behaviours that may not occur when there is a stranger in the house.
- You don't have to travel.
- Stay in your PJs!
- No face masks needed!

I enjoyed working with Bev and Laurie. The small classes and individual attention really make a big difference. There were a couple of moments in Foundations when you said "Click!" (and I did - yeah me...) at precisely the right moment for me to 'get it'. As a result, we went from Vita pulling like a fiend to polite walking in literally 2 classes. And getting the mechanics of Leave It/Take It down on my part (thank you again), helped me sort that one out in 3 or 4 sessions at home. We have, as you know, moved on to agility; Vita is having fun and is getting more confident and spirited with each class.

Buster and I had a great time in Foundation. I was already recommending you to clients, but will do so even more passionately now. Buster and I will likely show up in a beginners' agility class soon.
