Off Leash Training

Our Off Leash Training Program is 7 private training sessions where we will teach you and your dog the art of communication through low-level remote collar training. We will teach a reliable recall (coming when called), loose leash walking, sit, down, stay, place, and address unwanted behaviours. Remote collar (or ecollar) training is the safest, fastest and most effective way to train a reliable off leash recall, as well as teaching a variety of other skills and addressing those unwanted behaviours. No other training tool can provide that!

Want to learn more about how we use the remote collar? Check out our video explaining how we use it here.
