Professional, positive dog training on Vancouver Island

We had Dave over to our condo five times to help get our two dogs under control when someone comes to the door. We have a 5 year old Papillon and a 1 1/2 year old Yorkie. I immediately felt comfortable with Dave and appreciated his gentleness with Finn and Chewy. He always arrived exactly on time which made it easier for me to ready them for his arrival. They now sit quietly in their “place” while we eat as well as when someone comes to the door. I would highly recommend Dave to anyone having difficulties with their dogs.

Thank you Baby dog for your amazing puppy socialization classes!!! It’s a great way to introduce your puppy to other dogs in a controlled setting with out breaking the bank. The bonus for you is that your pup goes home exhausted giving you a few hours of freedom even if it’s only for one night! We are looking forward to the next step of Malibu’s training program which we will be starting next week! Malibu gives you ladies two paws up!!! :)

We attended Puppy Training with our 5 month old Shih Tzu/Maltess puppy, Drake Danika was our trainer & we are absolutely thrilled with the training she provided for us & our puppy. It was a delight working with Danika and we look forward to future training sessions with her once our puppy has mastered what we learned in 'Puppy School'. Danika was professional, knowledgeable, courteous, patient & was gentle with our puppy. We are pleased we used her services. Thank you so much.

Emma was our trainer and she did a fantastic job with our nervous rescue pup! We saw incredible changes in her behaviour over several sessions with her. Definitely recommended

Meg was an excellent trainer. She presents very well, and is extremely passionate with people and dogs. She has a natural affinity to the dogs, and it’s obvious she loves her job. We’re looking forward to taking another class with Meg or Baby dog trainers.

We got our German Shepherd Niro when he was 12 weeks old and since he was our first puppy, we enrolled him in group training classes right away! Mainly working with Aviva and Ruth, they have taught us everything we need to know in order to raise a happy, smart, obedient dog by using positive training methods. Their puppy socialization classes have taught him how to play with dogs of all sizes safely and he has made many puppy friends through it. We would highly recommend them if you have a new puppy!

Danika is an amazing instructor. She takes the time to engage with each dog and owner and is very professional and knowledgeable. My puppy walked into the first class, shy and never normally approaching strangers, and ran up to Danika and stayed by her side, like she had known her for years! That is her magic! Danika makes everyone feel like they are heard and the star student of the class! I highly recommend Babydog lessons. We are so grateful and we have learned so much. We will be back for more lessons. Thank you so much Danika, From Heather Ann and Lucy Belle

When I was being challenged by training my large teenage Golden, I asked Aviva to help me get back on track. We had taken him to puppy socialization previously and knew Aviva would be the trainer that could help us because of her experience and the gentle but firm way she has with dogs. I learned what I needed to do in order to have Monte pay attention and listen to me. We have a much calmer dog now that he respects me as a leader. Thank you, Aviva, you gave me practical and simple things to do so I could be successful with him and consistency and practice have really paid off. Our lives have changed for the better!
