Introduction
Background:​ As an individual with a certification in dog training, 8 ½ years of experience in said training, as well as being an A.K.C and C.G.C evaluator with a specialization in behavior modification I have a unique perspective on how puppies/dogs can and will be and go on to be in terms of being fulfilled and successful in multiple aspects of their lives. While not trying to reinvent the wheel, my way of training is rather unique in the way that the behavior of the puppies/dogs is shaped. Whilst using treats as a means for reward after successfully completing a command has been the traditional route for far longer than one can imagine, I have noticed that affection as a means for reward breeds long term fulfillment, and success for both the puppy/dog and owner, therefore, I have implemented this reward system in my way of training, negating the over-treating of a puppy/dog which in-turn negates the creation of separation anxiety and other bad habits that can and will develop from over-treating. By implementing affection as the means for reward, the puppy/dog understands that he or she will be rewarded with affection and they will execute any command more successfully.

I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience we had at K9 Montreal! From the moment we contacted him, the trainer was professional, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about helping our dogs. Took the time to understand our dog's unique personality and needs, offering personalized training techniques that were both effective and compassionate. The progress we've seen in just a few weeks is incredible. Our dog is more responsive, well-behaved, and confident. Montreal used a balanced approach, focusing on positive reinforcement, which really helped build trust with our dog. We were also provided with clear instructions and helpful follow-up resources to ensure we were on the right track. I highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch dog training services. Whether you have a puppy or an adult dog with specific behavioral issues, they know how to get results. Truly a game-changer for our dog and our family!

Montreal came out to do an initial evaluation and was very informative and took time to explain why we have the behavior problems we have with our dogs. We will be doing his behavior sessions and look forward to continuing to work with him.

We adopted our dog in November and had some reactivity issues we needed to address. This was the best decision. He’s improved immensely and now we feel confident taking him to patios and walks without fear of leash reactivity. We are very satisfied.
