Private Canine Behaviour Coaching
Private Behaviour Coaching for dogs and their people
Support your dog’s behaviour - without guesswork, frustration, or constant setbacks.
Is your dog’s behaviour stressful, confusing, and exhausting?
You love your dog, but day-to-day life feels harder than it should. You’re constantly trying new strategies, working hard, and hoping this will be the thing that finally helps — only to feel like progress never quite sticks.
If it feels like one step forward and two steps back, you’re not alone. And it doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong.
A deeper, more effective approach to behaviour change
Private Canine Behaviour Coaching is a 6 or 12-week coaching journey designed to help you understand what’s really driving your dog’s behaviour — so you can create change that lasts, not just temporary improvements.
This isn’t about quick fixes, rigid methods, or surface-level obedience.
It’s about addressing the emotional, physical, and environmental factors that influence behaviour, and building skills that genuinely translate into everyday life. It’s about an innovative coaching model providing you with personalized guidance and support every single day.
Many of the guardians we work with arrive feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to turn next — even after trying multiple approaches.
This program exists for exactly those situations.
Who this program is for
This program is designed for dog guardians who want meaningful, sustainable behaviour support, not short-term control. It’s perfect for folks who value working together closely and collaboratively - both inside and outside of session.
It’s suitable for dogs experiencing challenges such as:
Reactivity towards dogs, people, or environments
Anxiety, fear-based behaviour, or shutdown responses
Over-arousal or frustration-based behaviours
Struggles with handling, routines, or everyday situations
Behaviour that feels unpredictable, stressful, or hard to live with
If you’re looking for a quick workaround or a one-size-fits-all solution, this won’t be the right fit.
If you want clarity, understanding, and a structured plan that evolves with your dog — it likely will be.

Why this approach works
Behaviour doesn’t exist in isolation.
Real change happens when we:
Support the dog physically as well as mentally
Reduce stress and overwhelm
Understand the emotional drivers behind behaviour
Provide clear, consistent guidance over time
Ensure that you receive just as much support as we’re giving your dog
This program provides the structure, accountability, and reassurance most guardians are missing when trying to navigate behaviour challenges alone.
Limited availability by design
To ensure every client receives a high level of personal support, availability is intentionally limited.
When spaces are filled, new clients are placed in a waiting list.

We offer in-person behaviour coaching in Edmonton, Alberta and remote coaching worldwide.
If you live in Edmonton and your dog struggles with big behaviours around new humans, we will likely start our work together remotely to build skills up for your dog first before connecting in-person. We will talk all about this and game plan together on our call.

How your dog moves can tell us a lot about how they are feeling in their bodies and it is essential that we ensure your dog is feeling their best physically before beginning a training program, both from an ethical and efficacy standpoint.
Unmanaged pain/discomfort (whether it’s from gut issues, allergies, or musculoskeltal concerns) can have huge impacts on behaviour. Up to 82% of behavioural cases may some sort of underlying pain component and indicators of discomfort are often subtle and easily-missed, even in vet appointments.
As a Dynamic Dog Practitioner, Liz is qualified to conduct formal gait and movement analysis and prepare formal reports for vet use. By exploring how your dog moves and performs all activities of daily living, we can often uncover some sneaky signs of discomfort that you can then work with your vet to resolve.
-
We very much understand this feeling and have so much respect for the amount of care and love you’ve shown your dog to get to this point.
In our work together, we dig deeper than just surface-level training to try and address ALL the factors that impact training success. By staying in daily contact, we can easily pivot, troubleshoot, and tweak anything that isn’t working for you and your dog.
-
We know that the bulk of the work and the change happens when you and your dog are training together on the things we work on in our session. It’s no good having to wait a couple weeks between sessions to ask questions, adjust, or move forward if you’re ready to go!
This program includes unlimited WhatsApp text, voice memo, and video review support. We review every message on a 24 hour cycle and respond - so you never have to wait longer than a day to get your questions answered so you can continue to make progress with your dog.
