Our Training Philosophy and Services

We provide a positive and motivational approach utilizing a “play and praise” reward system. We don’t use any food bribery such as cookies and/or treats to encourage the dog with obedience, nor do we apply any form of aggression to discipline the dog.

The reason we chose not to use food bribery to motivate our dogs is because we prefer using psychology and intelligence as this method promotes long-lasting reliable results.
We specialize in dog behavioral problems and offer private dog training in Vancouver that is flexible in time and tailored to the convenience of the client’s schedule of availability.
We serve in Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, Richmond, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Surrey, and Delta.

At A-Z Canine Training, we help you understand the causes of your dog’s behaviour problems. The home environment and your own emotional reactions such as shouting and punishment simply accelerates the dog’s anxiety and therefore blunts the learning curve. We’ll guide you step by step throughout the process to help you solve the behavioural or obedience issues in your dog or pup.

Our puppy training in Vancouver includes impressive training sessions that focus on certain areas of behaviours in your puppy. It helps the owners understand how to bring balance to their home, prevent damage, and help puppies become productive and loving family members. We also offer aggression prevention training that modifies your dog’s aggressive behaviour and eliminates aggression in your home, to other people, or to other dogs.

What Client Says

Susan Henderson

 

 

Since completing the obedience lessons for Blondie, we’ve been able to safely enjoy walks together with much better control and responsiveness. Before the training, managing our dog had become difficult and stressful at times, but through Tony’s guidance, support, and consistency, we gained more confidence handling our ‘big puppy’ in everyday situations. We truly appreciated the time, patience, and diligence throughout the training process and were very happy with the progress that was made.
