Training family dogs is our specialty. We routinely educate ourselves through workshops and seminars. Click HERE to view some neat photos of us learning about animal behaviour while attending the Association of Pet Dog Trainers conference in San Fransisco.
At Shannoncourt we use science based, positive reinforcement training methods that get results. We teach people and dogs how to be on the same team. We do not use choke chains or other outdated, forceful methods. Our classes are fun for people and dogs.
We accept all dog breeds in our training programs.
Our classes and private lessons are held inside during the winter months and on rain days. When the weather permits, our classes are held in Central Bark on-site fully fenced dog park).
