WORKSHOP: Confidence Building
Is your dog:
- worried about new places or new things?
- easily stressed?
- sensitive to noises?
- "not interested" in training?
- shutting down?
- generally nervous or timid?
BUT NOT reactive to dogs or people?
Then this workshop is for you!
We have developed a series of specific exercises that will be tailored to your dog's level of confidence (or lack thereof!) in each case, in order to:
- BOOST CONFIDENCE!
- INCREASE ENTHUSIASM!
- STRENGTEN YOUR BOND!

Without this documentation, your dog cannot enter the premises and your fee will be forfeit.

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.

We have taken two dogs through Puppy Playgroup & Foundation. We are so pleased with how socialized our dogs are and well behaved. The methods that the trainers use at Cowichan Canine are amazing and we have to admit when we first started we didn’t think it would work with Siberian Huskies, not only did it work but one graduated with honours and the other was pretty darn close! Far exceeded our expectations of when we started the course. The Foundation class with Stephanie was absolutely brilliant and the dogs adored her. She was a wizard in convincing our very stubborn girl to actually want to play to learn! We wished they offered an advanced Foundation class to keep us coming back! We have signed up for the beginners scent detection so we are very excited to start a new chapter with our girls J
