Our philosophy
At Canis Major, we don’t like to use the term “obedience training” because we believe your dog should willingly do what you ask without fearing repercussions. To accomplish this we use force-free methods that are based on scientific research. Together, we will strive to praise your dog when they do something right, instead of punishing them when something goes wrong.
“Training is not a luxury, but a key component of good pet care. […] It’s about more than teaching a dog to do a nice trick. Training is about teaching a dog (or any other animal) to live in our world safely.”– Ken Ramirez
What people are saying
“My wife and I only have amazing things to say about Krystal. She is very kind and patient. She is very good at what she does and u can see that she loves it. We are so happy to have chosen Krystal to train our dog ICE and we recommend her services to everyone. You will be extremely happy.”
-Google Review
“My English bulldog, Otis, and I both thoroughly enjoyed our puppy classes with Krystal. She had greatly planned and organized sessions catering to our needs. Krystal sent documents to review after each session allowing us to continue to practice what was taught at home. As a first time dog owner, Krystal’s puppy classes helped put me at ease and also gave me the opportunity to talk to an expert about anything and everything concerning Otis. I highly recommend Canis Major to all those looking for guidance in those first few months.”
-Andrea
“We loved the puppy classes for our little dog. They are very complete and also the tips that are given are effective and respect the integrity of the animal. I absolutely recommend it!
The play period at the end of the group class is also very useful to allow the dogs to socialize and have fun in complete safety!”
