How I Can Help You
Kristen and Lucy Mae
Lucy Mae had a deep fear of the car and flat out refused to go anywhere near our vehicle. Matthias was amazing! In no time at all, Lucy Mae was jumping in and out of our car with no issues. Matthias is approachable, positive and easy to work with. Best of all Lucy Mae loves working with him and he has made positive and impactful changes in her behaviour. I can wholeheartedly recommend Matthias to anyone who needs help with their dog.
Adele and Bodhi
Matthias has a unique gift and passion for understanding dogs as well as their trainers, and how to translate that understanding into practices that will support a healthy relationships between pets and their humans. He was a huge support in helping us to better work with our puppy in effective and humane ways and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dog trainer.
Laurie and Ollie
We were fortunate to book several private lessons with Matthias to help with training our Golden Retriever puppy, Ollie. Matthias was so helpful and provided us with foundational skills and approaches that were fun, positive and effective. He tailored the training sessions to meet our needs and he was available to answer questions that arose and to provide materials online. Matthias is an excellent listener and is very personable, not to mention a superb dog trainer.
