With a maximum of 3 dogs per class, these packages are for owners who want to have fun working with their dogs on obedience skills and manners.
Perfect for dogs who are energetic and not always great listeners outside of the home! Work on getting your dogs attention focused on you.
Lisa will speak with each participant prior to accepting payment in order to ensure this is the best type of class for the dog and owner(s). Participants who join part way through a series (i.e. if there is an opening) will be offered a pro-rated fee.
In all of my classes I teach handlers how teach their dogs using rewards of food, play and affection. In addition, I will teach you how to train any skill that you want to work on in the future by breaking the learning into layers of success.
My mission at Kinder K9 is to keep dogs out of shelters as a result of behavior challenges that statistically lead more often to abandonment or surrender into the shelter system. I believe that by supporting as many households as possible from before the puppy arrives and through the first couple of years, I can have the greatest positive impact on this challenging societal problem. My training methods are grounded in positive reinforcement for educating both dogs and their humans!

We loved working with Lisa! She explained everything very clearly, personalized lessons and tips for us and our puppy, and helped us through the new puppy worries. Lisa got us and our little Herbie feeling confident and able to take on the world! Or at least Midland :)

Lisa is amazing. She is engaged, patient and worked at my level. She taught me new ways to improve my pup's behaviour. My favourite line that I use all the time is... "Make good choices". She helped me understand my dog's behaviour and I saw definite improvement. Highly recommend.
