Life Changer Session – A single, intensive, three‑hour in‑home workshop that tackles your dog’s most pressing challenges. Jon or Nancy work directly with every household member to create a consistent message that the dog can understand and follow. The result is a dramatic shift in behavior that lasts – not just for a few weeks, but for life.

Unlimited Training Pass – For owners who want ongoing guidance, our annual pass ($1,200) or monthly subscription ($125) gives you unlimited follow‑up sessions and free Pack Walks. This flexible option lets you reinforce skills, address new issues, and keep your dog’s confidence high.

Pack Walks – Structured group walks that train your dog to walk calmly among others. Ideal for households that struggle with reactivity or lack of leash control. Walks are led by Jon or Nancy and are available to members on the Unlimited Pass, or for $60 per walk.

Puppy Program – For puppies in their first 16 weeks, our kitchen‑based training lays a solid foundation for good manners, impulse control, and a secure attachment.

Reactivity Program – Targeted training that removes the frustration at doors, fences, and walks. We use real‑world stimuli to help your dog stay calm and responsive.

Baby Ready Program – A pre‑ and post‑birth training plan that prepares your family for a new baby, ensuring your dog remains relaxed and well‑behaved during the transition.

BetterDog App – Your personalized training hub. After each session you receive a custom manual in the app, with video recordings, step‑by‑step instructions, and reminders to keep progress on track. The app also hosts a library of training resources, FAQs, and a community forum.

BetterDog is your local partner for transformative, science‑based dog training that happens where your pet lives – inside your kitchen, at your front door, and on your neighborhood walk.
We bring the classroom into your home, using real‑world scenarios that build lasting behavior changes. Each Life Changer Session is a three‑hour, one‑household experience led by Jon or Nancy – seasoned trainers who speak both English and French and use emotional marking rather than shock collars or treat‑crutches.
With our custom manuals delivered the same day via the BetterDog App, you and every member of your household receive a clear, step‑by‑step guide tailored to your dog’s unique needs. Follow‑up support is provided for 30 days by phone, email, and text, ensuring the momentum stays strong long after the session ends. We’re committed to making training accessible, effective, and joyful for both dogs and owners, and our 5.0 Google rating from 126 reviews speaks to the real, measurable results we deliver across the Ottawa‑Gatineau region.
