Helping you and your dog learn together through practical, stress-free training that makes sense on both ends of the leash
BabyDog and their team of trainers offer the most knowledgable and skilled dog training sessions or puppy classes in Victoria/Greater Victoria! In my experience, they always amazed me with their expertise at helping humans and dog develop a better connection. Highly recommend!
A wonderful place for young pups to have safe and supervised playtime. While educating owners about appropriate play.
The trainers at Baby Dog Canada are knowledgeable and kind and have been instrumental in helping me raise a happy, well socialised dog. I highly recommend them to anyone with a new puppy or a dog who needs a refresher in some of their skills.
Amazing people and great help. My dog has gotten so far with them helping. I highly suggest tomey k9 to anyone.
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.
Great place knowledgeable and caring trainers
BabyDog was recommended to me by a friend and now I am in a position to recommend them to my friends and family. I contacted BabyDog for private sessions to help me improve my puppy’s impulse control. My Jack Russell Terrier had a terrible habit of picking things up and eating them - everything. Even dangerous things. I was at the point where I felt I could not keep him safe and I was considering rehoming him. The Baby Dog trainer and I worked slowly and methodically building a strong foundation of impulse control commands such as no, leave it, drop it, sit/stay, and place. We added one or two new skills every week. As my pup improved we worked on walking skills and recall. Everything finally came together and now my pup lives safely and happily, as a member of our family, and loves training every day. I am so pleased with my investment in my dog and my partnership with BabyDog. Their training methodology is science-based, gentle, kind, and it has proven itself effective for my dog. I found the trainer to be knowledgeable, skilled, patient, and kind. She was an excellent communicator for both handler and puppy. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with her, gaining confidence in my ability to teach my pup and his capacity to learn. My dog and I are now a team, training every day, and continuing to solidify the skills we have learned. I am a BabyDog customer for life.
Babydog was a huge help both for training and socializing my pup. They gave me a big headstart on training Chilkoot. Most trainers won't start working with pets until they're 6 months or more. By then mine had a good foundation. I would definitely recommend.
