Best Dog trainer in Canada

s	shadohm on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Catherine is very knowledgeable and great to be around. We did puppy training with her and we're off to great start. Great tips and advice for us to ensure that we're raising a polite, gentle, well mannered little boy, and with her help, he's becoming all of those things.
S	Steve and Dawna Day on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I contacted Catherine to help with recall and mat training for my 11 month old golden lab/retriever. I received the tools and information I needed to help with both of these issues but more importantly my attitude and expectations changed after spending time with Catherine and am now able to enjoy spending time with my dog while embracing his personality. I recommend Take the Lead Dog Training to anyone who wants a positive training experience for their dog.
L	Leanne Johnson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I adopted Cooper from a shelter in Abbotsford who is a very reactive dog. Catherine's one to one classes taught me how to develop trust in my dog's abilities and techniques for distraction and removal from situations that become difficult fast! Cooper will never be totally calm around new people but I am learning more about how to read his particular body language and allow him to have absolute faith that I am his number one advocate. Dog ownership is a lifetime commitment just like raising children. I would absolutely recommend Catherine's training should you also be the owner of a reactive dog.
N	Nancy Baillie on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was so happy that I found Catherine to train both my puppy and me (first time I have had a dog). She is so gentle and positive in all the training and my puppy loved her. She taught me to help my puppy be confident, happy, and well trained (last part still in progress). I loved that there was no making the puppy feel bad and instead using pleasant ways of reinforcing behavior. Thank you, Catherine. Kaylay and I will see you again. Nancy Baillie
F	Fang Junyu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ At the very beginning, I just looked for a trainer who is able to make my puppy behave well. During the lessons, I found that Catherine brought me a big surprise more than what I expected. Catherine is a really nice and patient dog trainer that I've ever met. We learnt many happy methods from her to train my puppy. And my puppy loves her so much! :D I will definitely choose her again if possible!
B	Brogan Whatley on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I called Catherine when I needed help with one of my dogs Myk and his leash manners. It was getting to the point where I was dreading going out for walks because I knew he was going to react if we saw another dog. Myk was a very slow learner but Catherine gave us the tools and patience we needed to get him to work on his confidence during walks. Catherine was amazing throughout the whole process. Highly recommend!
S	Shelley Kotowick on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I contacted Catherine to help me with my reactive mini Aussie. Luna is a very intelligent dog and had done well with basic training and trick training but had huge anxiety issues when there was any change in her environment (ie. people entering the house or other dogs in general). Catherine worked with me, using several different methods, to find what worked to help with Luna's anxiety and get her through a stressful situation much more calmly. I still have a ways to go with Luna but I now feel like I have a lot more techniques to use and a great support system with Catherine! Her methods are all based on positive reinforcement and she is a patient, experienced trainer who also has a great sense of humour!
C	Courtney Miller on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We worked with Catherine for puppy class, life skills and 1:1 training once reactivity issues started to show with our covid pup. Working with Catherine over the first 2 years of our dog's life has been tremendous in helping us to understand and manage our dog's behaviour. She is a huge believer in teaching you humane methods and shows you how to be a better advocate for your dog. We have recommended Catherine to all our friends with new dogs - do not hesitate to work with her if you have a reactive dog or have a new puppy!
