About Me: About Me

Our mission is to help educate as many owners to foster the best possible relationship with their dog and create accessible options for reactive dog owners.

Focus K9 believes that owning a dog is an amazing & rewarding experience, but a responsibility, not a luxury. Training your pet properly will lead you to a stronger relationship and more freedom with your canine. We firmly believe in the owner/pet relationship being one of mutual understanding and respect. Our mission is to fully immerse you in the training process. With our holistic approach, we find that owners end up learning as much, if not more, than their pets. 

Our Mission

Training Philosophy

We believe in versatility & being a canine educator.

Focus K9's methods and techniques adhere to the industry’s LIMA approach of Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive training. Our mission is to foster the best possible relationship between dogs and their owners while incorporating it into different lifestyles suitable to the owner and dog's skill level.

Everything to do with your dogs behaviour and lifestyle works simultaneously together and training your dog can be a journey. 

We want you to feel supported every step of they way!
