Drop-In Training & Social
Currently only available in Campbell River
During this one-hour session, you and your dog will take part in a trainer-guided training and social experience designed to help dogs learn and practice real-world skills around other dogs.
We don’t just walk – we teach new on-leash skills, then practice them in a calm, structured environment with other dogs nearby. Sessions include short training activities, real-life practice, and plenty of guidance along the way.
Our trainer is present throughout to demonstrate skills, offer coaching, and support you and your dog as needed.

Benefits
Please note:
This is a group training and social session, designed to help dogs learn and practise skills in a calm, structured environment.
Because it’s a group setting, it may not be the best fit for dogs who are currently dealing with more intense challenges, such as extreme leash reactivity (tends to lunge, bark or snap at other dogs while on leash), high stress around other dogs, or aggressive behaviour.
If your dog needs more individual support, we strongly recommend starting with private training with Aviva. One-on-one sessions allow us to tailor the approach to your dog’s specific needs, work at their pace, and set them up for success – including building towards joining group sessions like this in the future.
Every dog is different, and needing a more personalised approach is not a setback. It’s often the fastest and kindest way forward.
If you’re unsure what’s best for your dog, we’re always happy to help you figure it out.
