Force-free, science-based, humane, and most importantly, fun dog training. We welcome all sizes and shapes of dogs - and people too. We focus on positive ways of training your dog so that you both learn and have a good time.

We primarily use "clicker training" in our classes, and subscribe to progressive reinforcement training.

Because our classes are run with a focus on flexibility and a low-stress experience, we keep classes small and offer a modular-based system.

We offer a variety of options:
- Basic Manners
- Performance Foundations
- Trick Classes
- Useful Dog Classes
- Small Dog Classes
... and more!!

Please visit our website or give us a call to learn more about our classes, seminars, and private lessons.

Clever Canine offers professional and knowledgeable dog training & behaviour services for puppies and dogs throughout the Greater Victoria area. Our expert advice will help you find a solution to all your dog and puppy challenges.

Clever Canine provides many training options to fit the needs of you, your family and your dog:
• Classes are available for puppies, adolescents and adults. The whole family can spend an hour each week training your dog and socializing with other dog-lovers.
• Private coaching, problem solving and behaviour consultations take place in your own home. If your schedule is crazy or if you have a serious problem with your dog then let Clever Canine make a housecall!
Our goal is to educate and teach both dogs and their people. Understanding how dogs think and learn is the foundation of all of Clever Canine’s programs and leads to a companion you can live with and enjoy. Clever Canine is committed to using positive reinforcement and reward in place of the traditional coercion and use of force. By using our no-force, reward-based methods you will get your dog socialized and trained, and have fun doing it!

Woofers One to One Training is aimed at people whose busy lives don't allow them to commit to a fixed schedule of dog training classes. Training can take place at your home or elsewhere to suit you, depending on the behaviour that we need to teach/resolve.

Woofers also offers several different ways to work with clients and their dogs.

Many common behaviour problems are the result of a lack of communication between the dog and owner. Many behaviours that owners find unacceptable are completely natural to a dog.

Woofers' aim is to help you and your dog to learn to live in harmony.

Woofers uses humane, reward based training that is fun for you and your dog. This means that I don't use choke collars, prong collars, or shock collars. Modern, enlightened dog trainers use methods based on science and the belief that a dog is a sentient being who does not deserve to be intimidated or hurt to teach him/her to become a well behaved member of the family.

I am a certified dog trainer and pet first aider and a full member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers.
