Professional, positive dog training on Vancouver Island

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.

Thank you Baby dog for your amazing puppy socialization classes!!! It’s a great way to introduce your puppy to other dogs in a controlled setting with out breaking the bank. The bonus for you is that your pup goes home exhausted giving you a few hours of freedom even if it’s only for one night! We are looking forward to the next step of Malibu’s training program which we will be starting next week! Malibu gives you ladies two paws up!!! :)

Aviva came to our place to help us train our Yorkie, she and her team are very knowledgeable and helpful, she gave us very useful tips to handle our 3 years old dog. When we went for a long trip she help us find a great place to take care of him

I highly recommend Dave and Tomey K9 Services! I knew my 6 y.o. Yorkiepoo Benny wanted to please, but I didn't know where to begin to help him rein in all of his energy around people and reactivity around other dogs. Dave taught me how to use redirection and positive reinforcement to help Benny become more obedient and calm. Benny now looks to me to see how he should react when another dog or distraction is coming our way, and I know how to help him through what used to be anxiety provoking situations. I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Thanks Dave!

Our puppy has attended puppy socialization and obedience. We've loved all of it. We've learned so much about positive training and it has absolutely made training our pup a joyful experience.

BabyDog is an amazing company. We have a rescue chihuahua mix who was fearful, shy, and had trouble walking on leash. We attended socialization classes (the shy puppy class at Royal Oak Bosley's), basic training, and intermediate training. We are truly raising a dog we can take anywhere! Aviva and Ruth personalize classes when needed and possible, and really engage with the dogs and their families. Our dog's needs were met and so were ours. I cannot recommend BabyDog highly enough! Their training classes are well worth the price, and their flexible drop-in model is fantastic. I could never thank Aviva and Ruth enough for how much they have helped us connect and learn with our dog :)

I have been taking my puppy Daisy to baby dog training classes for a couple months and they are amazing! I have learned so much, and Daisy is much better trained since we started! Daisy recently had an accident and we were not able to go to classes for a while, and the trainers at baby dog made some great suggestions to prevent her from getting too bored, and extended our time to attend the training classes. If you have a puppy, I highly recommend baby dog training and socialization classes!

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.
