Effective, positive reinforcement training for pets of all kinds.

“Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more  effective and permanent then the one derived from fear of punishment.”

Testimonials

“I recently had the pleasure of enrolling in the seminar "And Baby Makes 4" in anticipation of the arrival of our newborn twins. The course exceeded all expectations thanks to the expertise of Cindy. I grew up with dogs and know the fundamentals of dog training. This course taught specific insights about newborns and every aspect of the course left us feeling confident and excited about integrating our two dogs into our growing family. Cindy demonstrated a solid understanding of both dog behaviour and the dynamics of introducing new members to the family pack. If you're expecting a new addition to your family and want to ensure a seamless transition for your dog(s), look no further than Cindy. Her expertise, professionalism, and genuine passion make her the ideal choice for preparing your dog(s) for this exciting chapter.” - Madyson

“Cindy is an exceptional trainer, knowledgeable, kind, intuitive and honest. We met Cindy about 7 years ago when seeking out support with our dog Walter. Walter has struggled with fear, anxiety and reactivity since we adopted him from a rescue at 6 months of age. We started out with a trainer where we lived prior whose background was in positive behavior reinforcement. As a teacher of children, I immediately saw the parallels and on moving to the Golden area, was concerned I would no longer have this sort of support, given such a small community. I was grateful to find Cindy. She has surpassed our hopes for support. She has not only helped give Walter the confidence he needs to work through his issues, she has built our confidence in working with him. While Cindy is beyond exceptional with dogs, her ability to teach and support us in working with Walter has made all the difference. He is now going on 11 years of age. It brings us such joy to see his fun, energetic and loving personality shine through. What a change in him over the years. We still have challenges but have learned to help Walter and help ourselves manage them. Thank you Cindy for having been such an immense support to us and our Walter over the years.” - Michele & Denise
