Yogadog Dog Training has a unique approach to dog training. It combines a variety of training methods, traditional and new age, to find programs that work for all kinds of dogs and people. The five programs that Yogadog offers are loosely and humorously based on practices of Yoga. All the courses are aimed at improving the bond that the dog owner has with his or her pet and establishing better communication. The classes begin with a short canine massage or meditation to help the canines and the students balance their energy before starting training. Warm ups are taught on mats, where dogs and humans are encouraged to let go of stress and really connect. It is not so much about teaching the dogs to obey, as it is about teaching the owners how to communicate better with their dogs. What better way to teach dogs new tricks than through positive reinforcement and team work!
Classes run at three locations, North Burnaby at Pup Culture (6939 Hastings Street), South Burnaby at We Care Dog Daycare (7844 Edmonds Street) and New Westminster at the Bosleys in Columbia Village (1015 Columbia Street). Outdoor agility and Canine Cardio Bootcamps are seasonal and will pick up again in the New Year!
