About Us

CARESS_LogoBringing home a new family member of the four legged variety can be fun, rewarding and a real challenge. We can help your puppy or older dog become a polite and well-behaved member of your family and community.

We are strong proponents of positive reinforcement training methods that bring lasting results in a manner that is fun and positive for both dog and owner.  No choke chains, Martingale collars, shock collars or pinch collars are ever used as part of training philosophy. 

Our trainers are qualified, experienced and knowledgeable holding Certifed Professional Dog Trainers - Knowledged Assessed (CPDT-KA).  We teach at Community Centres across Vancouver as well as Private Training in Vancouver and in other locations in the lower mainland.

All our Community Centre training classes are held in small group setting so you and your dog can get the most out of your training.  We offer specialized Private training for those who prefer a one-on-one training scenario or for those who want training for special behavioural issues.  

We invite you to consider us when making your training decisions.  Training your dog will make life easier for you, your family, guests, and your veterinarian.  Our classes are inviting and making learning comfortable and fun for both you and your dog.
