Civil Canine Dog Training
Our Services
Take your training into your own hands. One on one lessons fit to your individual training goals.
Comfortable in home boarding for your dog, allowing your time away to be stress free.
Through training at our home-based training facility, your dog will receive all the focus and consistency they need for their training transformation.
Our Philosophy
At Civil Canine, your goals are our goals. We understand that there is no cookie cutter method for every dog, and each individual has their own needs and motivations. We believe in putting the happiness & welfare of the dogs we work with first and foremost. It's important to us to help our clients build the best relationship possible with their four legged friends while making your life with your dog the best it can be.
Our approach is through positive-first balanced training, teaching your dog our expectations motivationally in a low-stress manner, and ethically using training tools such as prong collars and e-collars when necessary to help you reach your goals.

Reviews
"Highly recommend! Best investment towards my dogs! I have a rescue from Mexico and he did not adjust well with other dogs and was a fence guarder. Tried various obedience and private classes with little success over the last 2 years. After 6 weeks with Zoe, my rescue doesn't fence-guard and he is more confident being around other dogs. I also have a 6 month old border collie/lab/hound puppy to be my rescue's companion but she was just full of endless energy for him as well for me, and getting into a whole lot of trouble. After 2 weeks with Zoe, the puppy is now making better choices and showing more restraint while still enjoying being a puppy. My rescue and the puppy are happily playing together and enjoying each other's company. Invest in good training and you will be rewarded with a happy healthy lifestyle for you and your dog.

“I can’t recommend Zoe highly enough! We sent our very nervous cavapoo to her for the 6-week board & train, and she did a fantastic job fostering confidence in our pup. Zoe gave us a thorough run down on how to bring our dog home with success, and has been a great resource whenever we have questions. Training with Civil Canine is an investment that is 100% worthwhile for the long term benefits of a confident and calm pet.”

"My wife and I have boarded our 2 year old American Staffy, Oreo, twice now with Civil Canine and have started some 1 on 1 on-leash training. Zoe has been incredibly professional and shows a genuine enthusiasm, love, and care for the dogs she helps board and train. We feel very safe leaving Oreo with her and we have also experienced some amazing progress from the two lessons we have completed so far. ... We've seen some dramatic changes in Oreo's behaviour not just on-leash outdoors but also at home. Zoe has an excellent understanding of how dogs think and learn, which has helped us better understand Oreo and set clear expectations with her.
