Our dogs love going to day school at Canine and Company. They come home happy and tired. Great staff very helpful. Amazing Trainers for dogs and helping train the handler as well.

I cannot say enough good things about Erika and Canines & Company. I was referred to Erika and her online training program from one of her previous students. I was unsure of what to expect doing training via video, text and voice notes, but it has been amazing. My rescue mutt Red and I are able to work at our own pace, while checking in with Erika to make sure we are on the right track. It’s particularly helpful because I can send a quick video and she replies back quickly with notes to improve or to let us know we are doing it right. With Red being older and not knowing his past life, being able to work at our own pace and move to the next level when we are ready instead of weekly, like a traditional in-person class, it takes the pressure off and I feel like we are making improvements in the right way. Plus the one-on-one approach means we are working on building a bond with obedience but also addressing his specific issues. On top of that, the approach of “firm, but friendly” resonates so much and is working. As I said, I can’t say enough about the process, approach and Erika specifically, it’s been fun and helpful.

We have trained 3 corgis over the past 17 years with Canines and Company, and can't say enough good things about Erika (including genuinely caring about and helping us train our first very challenging corgi). Now we are back in training with an 8 month corgi and have had the benefit of learning with the rest of the team: Gordon, Tanya, and Renata. Like Erika, these trainers are knowledgeable, supportive and kind and make us all feel like we and our dogs are A students. The day school with Sam has also been fantastic, as she continues the training and socialization with our pup. We feel lucky to be part of Canines and Company.

Canines and company has been so helpful for me to balance fitting a challenging breed dog (KBD) into our busy family. We welcomed a puppy into our family with a baby and toddler. Canines and company has given me a system to manage the madness. With their advice and methods I am able to look after everyone without feeling stressed. Not only do they provide a comprehensive way to teach your dog obedience but they give advice on how to manage the dog in your house. The instructors truly care about the success of each person/dog relationship. After just one lesson I already saw a difference. Now that my rambunctious, energetic, high prey drive, bite-y, and feisty puppy is 7 months old I can see he is in his way to becoming a well mannered and dependable dog. If you want to be able to go places and do things with your dog, if you wang to have them work for you (and enjoy it!) then Canines and Company is the place.

"If you seek a happy dog but not a well trained dog you often get neither. If you seek a well trained dog but not a happy one you often get both" If you want a happy dog, Canines and Company is where you want to go to accomplish that! Erika has such a deep understanding of the differences in personalities and is able to help all handlers understand their dogs and build a beautiful relationship on trust and understanding. She is kind, patient and direct so you dont misunderstand direction. She corrects without becoming harsh and her only goal is everyone's success which is clear in every interaction one has with her! All the other trainer who assist in the school are also knowledgeable, with years if not decades of experience, and have assisted us with any new questions with kindness, understanding, patience and good humor. Erika will train you, the human, to communicate clearly and effectively with your dog so they understand the boundaries and expectations.

Canines & Company has been an absolute blessing in my life. I only just started taking my dog, Isla there over a month ago and it has changed both of our lives. I can't recommend it enough and after having some pretty discouraging experiences with other trainers in town I am so happy to have found such a wonderful place. Gordon taught the puppy fundamentals class that I was in and did an amazing job. His approach is easy to follow and very thorough. In addition, he constantly motivated me to keep working hard and was very inspiring. I am looking forward to taking more classes in the new year and accomplishing goals. Thank you guys so much!

I adopted my "Yukon Special" Max in 2013 when he was about 9 months old, and started training with Erika at Canines & Co shortly after. I'd had a lot of dogs, but never really trained them to do much. Well, what an eye-opener! So much to learn, a lot of it for me (train the trainer!), how to stand, how to treat properly, how to play, and how to work. Max is 7 years old now, and a joy to continue training, largely in part to a solid, strong foundation that we learned together at Canines & Company. Max & I were also there when Erika brought PULLER to Canada and the Yukon in 2014, and it is a game-changer in terms of focus and help in training. Try PULLER if you haven't!!

I've worked with Canines & Company for over a year now. I've been lucky enough to work with every trainer in one way or another. All of the trainers are incredible. My dog is a Rottweiler/German Shepherd/other cross. He is an especially difficult pup, with aggressive tendencies in his blood. Canines & Co (especially Erika) have gone completely above and beyond what I could ever have asked for to help me in any way possible. Including classes, answering questions after class, answering questions during their personal time, private lessons, doggie day school, taking my pup a few extra days when I was incredibly busy, amazing seminars, and so so so much more! They give a lot to their students. The way they structure their classes and the progression in levels is great. I would reccomend Canines & Co to anyone in a heartbeat! This is truly an amazing school. We are so lucky to have them here! The play skills and PULLERS are by far the best part!!!!!
