OUR METHODS

Red Maple K9's Private Training Programs are designed to give your dog the best possible training experience. From working on puppy foundations to resolving complex behavioral issues, our program covers it all. During the lesson, our trainer will assess your dog’s current skills and develop a customized training plan tailored to their unique needs. We use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage your dog’s good behaviour and gently correct any unwanted habits

From puppy foundations to bite cases and service dogs, we've seen and worked with them all. We realized that 50% of dog training is training your dog, the other 50% is all about training the owners. This is why we structure our lessons to get hands on with the dogs and learn about their personalities, but also to spend time guiding the owners to be able to replicate the training at home on their own.

Our private lessons aren’t just about correcting behaviours; they’re about fostering a deeper understanding and connection between you and your dog. Through our specialized approach, we empower you with the tools and knowledge to lead confidently, making every interaction with your dog a positive and rewarding experience.

When you book a Private Dog Training Lesson with us, we make the process simple and straightforward. We’ll work with you to schedule a time that fits your schedule so you can focus on your training without worrying about interfering with your daily routine.
