Dogzies provides a unique approach which sets us apart where dogs can learn and play, without domination, while respecting fellow animals and people. Day School dogs will interact with other dogs in a structured environment where they will be physically and mentally exercised through a balanced, daily, routine of socialization and behaviour training throughout Kelowna (indoors & outdoors).  Day School is a healthy alternative to crating dogs during the work day and prevents destructive behaviour, anxiety, boredom, and loneliness.

Do you want your dog to be reliable in extreme situations?

Off leash training using an ecollar/pager will assist the client in obtaining maximum results with no physical force to the dog.  It provides the dog with freedom from a leash and teaches them to learn appropriate behaviours in a gentle manner.  This tool will give the client the confidence and trust required to take their dog anywhere.  Dogzies requires that all dogs have a 100% recall, and Pager Training is an effective tool for encouraging recall.

The Dogzies Pager Training program features:

• 100% recall

Elimination of:

• bolting
• aggression
• excessive barking
• chasing cars/livestock

Pre-Requisites:
