Empowering Guardians & Dogs Through Positive, Fear-Free Training
Located in Restigouche County, New Brunswick, "Pawsibilities with Dogs" coaches you with an emphasis on positive reinforcement, fear-free teaching so you can expect a fun & engaging learning experience for yourselves & your dogs.
A LITTLE ABOUT ME:
First & foremost, like you, I am a dog owner & dog lover!
Meet 'Brunswick' & 'Jersey', my fabulous American Field Labs, and the two who introduced me to the wonderful world of positive reinforcement dog training. A world with clear communication, fabulous positive consequences, and the absence of 'uh-uh', 'no', 'stop that', and all the physical punishment that often goes with those corrections.
Whether working with my own 'boys', an SPCA foster, a friend's, or a client's dog, our training days are full of fun, rewards, confidence and lots of successes!
I know that when you learn to train this way, your dog will truly enjoy training with you!
We'd be happy to help you define both your training goals and the training plan needed to get you there.
I'll be your instructor & coach, you'll be the dog trainer.
Yes...We'll coach you, to train your dog!
Our mission is "COACHING YOU TO BUILD THE COMMUNICATION, BEHAVIOR & RELATIONSHIP YOU WANT WITH YOUR DOG"!
I have both a Certification as a Professional Dog Trainer, and an Associate Dog Trainer diploma.
I am also a Certified Behavior Adjust Training Instructor, through Grisha Stewart Academy.
I am ‘Fear-Free’ Certified, and have completed ‘Canine First Aid’.
I am a member of the Canadian Association of Professional Dog Trainers.
I am a former member of the Board of Directors as the the Shelter Liaison of the Restigouche County SPCA.
Of course, we continue our studies & education, always keeping current on the science of dog training!

We can leave a blanket on the floor at night, and she will stay there until we start moving in the morning, and no more chewing. Her progress is amazing. She has definitely come a long way. I just really wanted to take the time to thank you for meeting with us [ ]. You really helped with easing my mind. And all the techniques has helped her tremendously.
