Dog Training with Eileen!

Wag’n It uses the latest science-backed training methods to strengthen the bond between dogs and their owners, fostering healthier relationships. Research shows that reward-based training is highly effective in addressing unwanted behaviours while also creating a happier, more balanced connection with your dog.

Looking for lasting results? You’re in the right place! Training should be a fun, rewarding experience for both you and your dog.

Choosing the Right Trainer

Whether you’re teaching your dog basic obedience or diving into advanced training or dog sports, a skilled trainer can make all the difference—especially for new dog owners. But even with years of experience, a professional trainer can help you troubleshoot issues and refine your skills. Plus, group classes offer the added bonus of socializing your pup!

So, how do you find the right trainer?

Dog training is an unregulated industry, meaning anyone can set up shop, regardless of their qualifications. It’s important to carefully evaluate potential trainers before committing your time, money, and trust to them. Don’t settle for the nearest option—take the time to research and ensure the trainer is a good fit for both you and your dog.
