Mary has been training and competing with dogs for over twenty years and has studied under renowned experts such as Stacy Peardot Goudy, Dr. Sophia Yin, Sue Ailsby and Denise Fenzi. She uses positive methods as recommended by the most current research in the field of animal training, she treats both dogs and handlers with respect, and she tailors her teaching to accommodate the needs of each dog/handler team.
At Five Star Dog Training, located in beautiful Kamloops, British Columbia, we offer practical dog training through Puppy Parties, Basic Skills and Manners, advanced Obedience, and beginner through masters Agility Classes. Whether you are trying to raise a sensible family pet, a trick-performing pooch to entertain your friends or a solid performance (agility or obedience) dog, we have classes to suit your needs.
We have worked with all types and ages of dogs and we can help you improve your relationship with your furry friend. While there are many methods of dog training out there, our preferred approach is based on positive and scientific methods. We suggest you read a little about some of the common myths surrounding dog training.
