About
Private training and board and train are set up to be tailored to your needs and goals as apposed to group classes where some dogs have a difficult time learning in that environment. I do the training and you learn to maintain it. In addition, my doggie daycare incorporates lessons in self-control by waiting at doors, sitting politely, and playing politely. Dogs are special gifts in our lives. I am passionate about reward-based training method which is completely humane and proven effective. I am grateful to be able to do what I love and empower people to transform their relationship with their dogs through trust and understanding.

I am so happy Laura is taking care of my dogs, They love her. When I come home from work they are so tired from all the exercise they get. You could not find a better person to care for your dog. She has been taking care of my dogs for a couple of weeks now, She picks them up three times a week for doggy day care and the other two days she walks them. They are waiting at the door for her now. Excellent, Excellent, Excellent

Laura with Laughing Tail is truly looking out for your family and dogs success for a long and happy life with a your four legged companion. Her calm demeanor and follow up after the training is done, is true dedication to what she stands for. Laura gives the tools to continue the training long after is part of the picture. We started out with a crazy puppy and now have a beautifully behaved puppy that everyone loves to be around. She has taught us how to be consistent with love and treats. Thank you Laura for what you have brought to our family. Anyone is lucky to have Laura train there puppy/dog.

Laura truly loves dogs and it shows in everything from her dedication to helping rescued dogs to helping pet owners with their canine companions. She understands why enrichment is so important to a dog's well being and I've certainly learned a lot from her about that, which has helped my dog, Dexter, tremendously. He gets bored and needs a lot of mental stimulation. When I watched a video about how she trained her own active dog, Tula, in some enrichment behaviors, it took how I thought about enrichment to a whole new level. You can see that video here, if you're interested: http://thelaughingtail.com/videos When I have training questions about my dog, I have 3 people I consider experts in different dog training specialties - Laura at The Laughing Tail is 1 of those 3 people. I wish we lived in Vancouver so I could take my Dexter to her doggie day care. She provides so much more than just a place for your dog to hang out. It's more like a really great pre-school than it is dog sitting.

We were really happy with Laura's job of watching our goats and chickens. It was a relief to know they were well taken care of as they are pets to us. We even received pictures! We're very thankful to know we now have someone we can trust to watch the animals while we are away from home. Great job!

We contacted Laura soon after we adopted a new "rescue" dog. Our new little girl was timid, shy, and terrified of new experiences. Trying to take her for a walk was challenging, as she startled at every movement and noise and was fearful of other dogs and strangers. Although we are experienced dog owners, we knew we needed special help for this challenging situation. We first hired Laura for private training consultation in our home and then started day care in her home, when our dog seemed ready for it. Laura's skills and confidence were so impressive and her gentle patience and use of positive training helped transform our pup from a cowering girl in the corner to a curious, playful, enthusiastic companion. We are so grateful to Laura and recommend her services without reservation!
