Great trainers, practical lessons. Their puppy socializing classes make all the difference with getting young puppies... Err.. socialized. You know, like the name says.
I have brought two pups to the socialization classes with Baby Dog. They are awesome! Very knowledgeable and professional, always managing what’s going on with the dogs and genuinely seem to love what they do!
Exceedingly knowledgable trainer. Tara always came up with multiple options two promote desirable behaviour and correct unwanted ones.
I have been taking my puppy Daisy to baby dog training classes for a couple months and they are amazing! I have learned so much, and Daisy is much better trained since we started! Daisy recently had an accident and we were not able to go to classes for a while, and the trainers at baby dog made some great suggestions to prevent her from getting too bored, and extended our time to attend the training classes. If you have a puppy, I highly recommend baby dog training and socialization classes!
Engaging. I found BabyDog Aviva and Ruth to be very Engaging. Their approach in classes to both puppy and puppy owner was very attractive and pleasing in a way that holds your attention. Their stories, smiles and positive reinforcement worked for me and worked even better with my puppy. I loved how BabyDog shared their knowledge of canine behaviour, demonstrated patience in the learning process, and especially how they shared their love and joy in helping every BabyDog client become a wonderful puppy parent. Aviva and Ruth worked with my family and my puppy Cookie for over a year, and we have a dog that we are proud to take anywhere.
We have taken both our puppies to BabyDog with fantastic results. Our training has never gone this well before. BabyDog is always focused on positive reinforcements and finding a training method the is kind and working well for our puppies.
My pup is about to age out of the puppy socialization class. She has learned so much. I am proud of how much she has accomplished through this program. It has made her much easier to live with. Thank you Baby Dog. We have also attended the Sunday dog walk. Hopefully, we will get to kore of these to keep the connection.
Babydog was a huge help both for training and socializing my pup. They gave me a big headstart on training Chilkoot. Most trainers won't start working with pets until they're 6 months or more. By then mine had a good foundation. I would definitely recommend.
I had the opportunity to see Emma in action at her socialization class for shy/tiny dogs last Saturday. I brought along a timid foster dog and couldn’t believe how calmly and skilfully she managed a class of 10 dogs and their owners. She was quickly able to organize the pups into appropriate small groups and guide us through introduction exercises. I learned so much as a participant, and while observing the other groups too. Emma set each dog up for success by ensuring everyone had a safe space to move through the instructions at their own pace. I’m thrilled with the progress my dog made in just one hour! We’ll definitely attend the class as often as possible, and I’d recommend Emma to anyone looking for a dog trainer.
I took our puppy Yodel to the socialization classes for almost 4 months. I found it extremely helpful and I learned a lot about how puppies interact and what different body language signals mean. Avila is very knowledgeable about dog behaviours.
One of our dogs has been anxious and reactive around other dogs. Even though he is a sweet little guy, walking him was something none of us could look forward to anymore. I was fortunate to meet Danika in another setting, and she mentioned she specializes in working with reactive dogs. We arranged some sessions and found that not only is she a super skilful and compassionate trainer, she's an all around fun and generous human being. In the first session, we learned tools and principles that began to help immediately. By the second session, our dog was comfortable being in fairly close proximity to hers. After a few more sessions we were able to enjoy our walks again, even actively seeking out dogs as conditioning opportunities. We're so happy and impressed!!
Amazing people and great help. My dog has gotten so far with them helping. I highly suggest tomey k9 to anyone.
Aviva and BabyDog have a wonderful combination of technical training ability and a true love of dogs. This shows in everything they do-- private training, group classes, walks, and communicating with the pet's owners. I recommend them any time I can.
My boyfriend and I had many training sessions with Danika Postle! The training we got was so positive and our puppy I’m pretty sure loves her more than us ! In all honesty the best dog training experience I’ve had is with her and this company and I recommend to anyone I know with a puppy :)
It only took one lesson to see improvement in my dog. She has completely turned around in 4 lessons, and now we have the tools to keep growing on our own. The other dog owners in our neighborhood are constantly complimenting Beans on how far she’s come!
Danika is very professional, and encouraging in ensuring you get the value for the training. She was able to address behavioral issues with my puppy and was able to provide effective solutions. More importantly, she provided tips on how to train humans and little humans on proper dog handling.
