Cori was so great to work with. We did the puppy day training program and saw huge changes in our pup’s behavior and learned a lot. I would highly recommend anyone looking for support with their dog to hire Cori! More...

Working with Cori was fantastic! Highly recommend her. She helped with me to understand my dogs & how to meet each dog’s diverse needs. The tips and techniques she offered have been very useful and her leashes are life changing! I can walk the dogs with confidence and without frustration or pain in my hands. Thanks Cori!! More...

We have a shepherd X who deals with anxiety. He was very reactive to other dogs and sometime people that were running or wearing hoodies. With Cori's help we are able to walk our dog and have control even if he still has some reactive behaviour. Cori gave us the foundation to keep moving forward and helping our fur baby to succeed. Thank you so much. Her infectious voice and personality made her the best fit for our family. More...

Cori was great. We have 2 very different dogs and she was able to tailor her training to each one. We took away a lot of tips and tricks and while our high energy anxious Aussie isn’t magically calm, which would be unrealistic for his breed, he and we now have tools and made amazing progress over a short period of time. Highly recommend!

My daughter and I fell in love with Oakley (a husky/akita cross puppy) and we one day made a split second decision to bring her home. We didn't realize she was 5 months old and didn't have any socialization. We had no idea how to get Oakley to become a family pet from a wild pup. After a few sessions with Cori, we now have a family pet that will come to all of us and Oakley is able to socialize with other people and dogs. We are so thankful for Cori and we recommend her to everyone :) More...

Cori was absolutely amazing to work with. My boyfriend and I were struggling with pulling on walks, getting very excited when he saw other dogs. After one lesson there was a noticeable difference. We now have a beautifully behaved 95lbs boy thanks to cori. More...

Cori contacted us the same day I reached out to make an appointment to discuss our needs.
Our rescue dog Finn needed help with leash manners, socializing and recall.
Funn liked and engaged easily with Cori immediately. Cori's years of experience were evident in the confident way she coached better habits and behaviors.
Finn is far better on leash, we will continue what we have learned. The new confidence we have socializing Finn with other dogs has made a world of difference.
What a great experience for our family, thanks Cori,

I got my first dog (a beagle) last year and he is incredibly stubborn! I was struggling with him being unpredictably aggressive, and just understanding the correct way to train him. I tried puppy classes and several other trainers before finding Cori. It seemed like the information from training, puppy classes, and my vet were all contradicting and I had no clue what was “right”. Cori met with and worked with me and my puppy and I saw improvements right away! Everything she said made so much sense, and gave me the confidence to be able to handle my little guy better. His aggression is significantly better (might be gone completely but not 100% sure yet), he’s an amazing walker, sleeps in his crate (and loves it), is calmer, and happier overall (and so am I haha). I’m so grateful to Cori and everything she did and taught me! Would highly recommend her to anyone. More...

Cori was absolutely wonderful. She is down to earth, friendly and a joy to work with. She helped me feel more confident with my new puppy Norbu and always provides support or help as needed.
Cori is knowledgeable and has all the tools to help make you suceessful. She is amazing with the puppies and dogs.
I am so happy with working with her and look forward to pack walks and additional training with her. If you are looking for someone to help you with a puppy or even older dog or anything, she is definitely the one to have train and help.

What do you love most about your job?
Helping dogs and their owners build a better relationship through understanding, stronger skills and clear communication. Seeing a family that once struggled with aggression, reactivity and not being able to walk their dog, to now being able to go on that walk without incident is the r most rewarding part of my job.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have always been an entrepreneur and when I moved back to Canada from Belize where I studied under international trainer Katia Marin, I knew I wanted to continue helping dogs, and provide owners with the right training tools and communication skills to be successful with training their dog.
