We were able to work directly, and with the innovation of videoing every session, we have access via YouTube to everything we covered during the sessions. These videos will be extremely helpful to review, whenever we need it! We definitely recommend Pooch Partners! Thanks!

Shelly's positive approach to dog training has helped us build trust and encourage our dog to engage, while making it enjoyable for both me and our dog.

Best most effective trainer I have ever known.

Shelly is an incredible dog trainer who truly changed the way we approach training. She introduced us to games-based training, and it was a total game-changer! Instead of focusing on obedience through correction, she showed us how to build a better relationship with our dog through play, engagement, and fun. Highly recommend working with her if you're looking for positive, thoughtful, and effective training.

I am grateful for the support we received from Shelley! She is incredibly knowledgeable and helped my family and I navigate some challenging fear-based behaviours after my puppy was attacked by another dog. Her approach was compassionate, clear, and effective — I felt reassured at every step. She made basic training fun and engaging for both me and my pup. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for guidance in training their dog.

Highly recommend Shelly at Pooch Partners!She uses only positive reinforcement, and the results have been incredible. Especially with our dog’s high prey drive. Shelly is patient, knowledgeable, and makes training enjoyable for both dogs and guardians. A huge bonus: she records every session, so you can review and keep practicing at home. If you want kind, effective training that works, give her a call! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We had an initial Zoom consultation where Shelley clearly and simply explained the cues we needed to get started and showed me videos of how to do them. Great instructions. We trained a little every day building on the cues until we were ready for the real thing. Shelley was great to work with. I find it hard to take things in and learn the cues at the same time, but she was clear and patient, and we had a wonderful positive lesson. She answered all my questions and concerns and designed our session to work with areas I thought would be a problem for us. Shelly is so fit, she was able to run ahead of us and video all of our session, with instructions, so I can look back and learn. Perfect for me with my awful memory. I’m so excited we have this new sport we can do together. Thank you Shelley.

100% recommend pooch partners for all your dog training needs. Shelly designed a fabulous custom course for us and it’s filling in all the gaps of our previous group training, and reminded me how much fun training is for your relationship with your dog. Thank you so much Shelly!
