Emma was our trainer and she did a fantastic job with our nervous rescue pup! We saw incredible changes in her behaviour over several sessions with her. Definitely recommended
The best investment I could possibly make for me and my puppy, thanks Emma!
Maisy & I really enjoyed & learned a lot from our puppy classes. Definitely recommend!!
Had a great time training our puppy with BabyDog. We have seen fantastic results and the training truly got my partner and I on the same page. We will continue using BabyDog and have booked private sessions to further her training.
I was so impressed and happy with the work Danika did with my dog Higgins and I. Higgins is two and had a bad habit of jumping on people when he was excited - not aggressively, but given he is 80 lbs, he could hurt someone badly. Danika provided 4 private lessons and stayed very focused on the problem of jumping. She was knowlegeable, professional but also very fun to work with. Higs never never wanted her to leave! Most importantly, I now know what approach to take to make sure he stays under control.
I wish I could give more stars!!! Meg is the absolute best. Hands down one of the most incredible experiences we have ever had with a dog trainer. Our puppy Rosie absolutely loves her and actually listens! Meg not only taught our dog many useful things but she gave us so much knowledge that we never would have known before. You can tell she actually is passionate about what she does, genuinely cares and wants to see you and your dog thrive together! Meg, thank you for everything. Best dog trainer in Victoria hands down!!!!!
Would highly recommend both the puppy socialization and basic obedience class. Our trainer Meg was with us all throughout. She is so knowledgeable, thorough, and just brought a wonderful energy to every class. Bailor and I are going to miss our Sunday afternoons with her!
Aviva was very knowledgeable, personable and flexible.
