When Hounds Fly (Dundas West)

Puppy Drop In. A great class. The instructor helped up to recognize puppy body language. Our instructor was very adept at paying attention to all the different dynamics between the dogs and was able to interpret the dog behaviour for the dog owners.

I went to the Puppy Drop-In Class with my 4-month old puppy, Rosie. She went from being scared in a group setting with other dogs to coming out of her shell and interacting with people and dogs by the end of the session. The instructor was very kind, and knew exactly what Rosie needed to begin to feel safe in a new environment. I was very happy with the class and we will be back in the near future.

Great classes for dog guardians hoping to learn the foundations for happy and well-trained pups.

Every trainer that we’ve worked with has been positive and able to get us on the right track within each of their classes. Hoping to do some advanced classes after the puppy ones!

Millie loves the small dog social! Being an extra small (4 lbs!) dog makes it harder sometimes to find safe playtime with other dogs especially during the winter. The supervised play gives her the opportunity to play with other dogs closer to her size. Lots of breaks and treats if she gets overwhelmed. Stephanie was awesome at helping make sure Millie was able to play safely with the other dogs.

Hu is a great instructor, and takes the time to understand and help you with your training

The trainer I worked with was very knowledgeable, patient and clear with her guidance around training methods. She helped me better understand my dog’s behaviour, which made it easy to pick up on training methods. While a little expensive, I felt it was an important investment from which I’ll be able to pull knowledge/suggestions from for a long time.

A great place for puppies and humans alike. It is a super fun, supportive environment, and the lessons are a great mix of hands on training and puppy tips that set everyone on the right track. My dog Cleo and I are leaning so much and loving it!

The booking process for this puppy school requires a PhD. I have never encountered something so confusing and frustrating. There's no 'back' button, you click 'book now' and it takes you to another page where you have to relocate the class and time you thought you were booking. Honestly, it's enough to make you give up altogether.

I'm taking my 19-month old rescue through foundational skills right now. She's had other training, but one on one, and I wanted to solidify what she has learned, plus cover a few more bases in a group setting so she would have to deal with some distractions too. We've now done four classes with Luca and they have been excellent - really clear and helpful and I've walked away understanding the logic and science behind the training (and common missteps). Highly recommend!
