Introduction
Background:​ As an individual with a certification in dog training, 8 ½ years of experience in said training, as well as being an A.K.C and C.G.C evaluator with a specialization in behavior modification I have a unique perspective on how puppies/dogs can and will be and go on to be in terms of being fulfilled and successful in multiple aspects of their lives. While not trying to reinvent the wheel, my way of training is rather unique in the way that the behavior of the puppies/dogs is shaped. Whilst using treats as a means for reward after successfully completing a command has been the traditional route for far longer than one can imagine, I have noticed that affection as a means for reward breeds long term fulfillment, and success for both the puppy/dog and owner, therefore, I have implemented this reward system in my way of training, negating the over-treating of a puppy/dog which in-turn negates the creation of separation anxiety and other bad habits that can and will develop from over-treating. By implementing affection as the means for reward, the puppy/dog understands that he or she will be rewarded with affection and they will execute any command more successfully.

Montreal takes his time to teach me how to appropriately handle my dog. We focus on leash training and recall and even listening to commands to go to crate. On my 3/5 session and has been worth it to feel my comfortable with my German Shepherd

After a long time of searching for a dog trainer that would help us train our dog we came across K9 Montreal and so far we have had the best experience! Our trainer is very patient and has taken the time to learn our dog and what he needs to work on. We have seen Amazing progress with our dog’s behavior and we can’t thank K9 Montreal enough! Definitely recommend if you are looking for a dog trainer that cares about your dog and is great at what they do.

Montreal was responsive and very informative on how to help work on some behavioral issues (toward my cat) with my puppy. He was professional, timely, and extremely helpful. He traveled to my home and was respectful of my property. He took time to explain what needs to be addressed (as well as showed us) and what to do to see the changes we want!

Details: 0 - 6 months old • Small (16 - 25 lbs) • Private lessons • Aggressive behavior modification • Barking • Biting • My home, venue, etc.
