Puppy Training
Raising the Dog You’ve Always Wanted.

MY APPROACH: THE R.O.O.T.S.™ DIFFERENCE
What you'll learn:
- Relationship: Building a "secure attachment" so your puppy looks to you for guidance during scary moments (like their first Toronto streetcar!).
- Observation: Decoding the "zoomies" and nips—often "naughtiness" is just a puppy telling me they need a nap.
- Origins: Honouring breed instincts—giving your puppy appropriate outlets for their natural drives.
- Temperament: Moving at your puppy’s specific pace, never overwhelming a sensitive soul.
- Surroundings: Managing the environment proactively so your puppy can't "fail."
IMPORTANT NOTE
I do not work with dog-to-dog or dog-to-human aggression cases.
If your dog has a bite history, I am happy to refer you to a qualified specialist.
