We’ll be your guide in raising a calm, happy dog

At Raising Canine Dog Training, we know that life with a dog isn’t always smooth sailing. On one hand, you want a well-behaved, confident dog who is a joy to live with. On the other hand, barking, pulling on leash, or overwhelming energy gets in the way. That’s why we’re here — to help with scientifically proven, kind and effective dog training methods in Calgary NW.

Since 2005, we’ve proudly helped Calgary families build better relationships with their dogs, of all breeds and ages, by using positive reinforcement training & force free methods. Whether you’re starting with a new puppy, or helping your reactive dog, or even if you simply want a calmer companion, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

“We are forever grateful”

“Working with Raising Canine has been an absolute game-changer for us and our dog, Max. We were at our wit’s end, struggling with Max’s over-excited and unruly behaviour whenever we went out for a walk. It was a constant source of stress and ruined what should have been fun. From the moment we met Justine & Velvet, we felt reassured and understood. Their expertise and patient guidance gave us the tools and confidence to address Max’s behaviour effectively. Through positive reinforcement techniques and training sessions, we witnessed remarkable progress and we are forever grateful that we can all now enjoy life again.”
