Every behaviour has a story.

Understanding the why behind behaviour is often the first step toward meaningful change.

Not every barking, lunging, reactive, or “difficult” dog is just a training issue.

Sometimes the behaviour we see is the breaking point — not the whole story.

That’s why I’ve loved doing webinars with Dr. Sagi Denenberg.

These conversations go beyond “fixing behaviour” and focus on understanding the why behind it.

✦ The best outcomes happen when we work as a team.
✦ Guardians. Trainers. Vets. Behaviour consultants. Veterinary behaviourists.

This is the direction I continue to move in with my work:
deeper education, collaboration, and understanding — because our dogs deserve more than surface-level answers or surface-level training.

Think you know why pets do what they do? Join us May 13 at 7 p.m. for a free webinar with Dr. Lisa Radosta, a board-certified veterinary behaviourist and internationally recognized expert in dog and cat behaviour.

In Wait…That’s Not True?! Behavior Myths Busted, Dr. Radosta will unpack some of the most common myths about pet behaviour and explain what may actually be behind the habits and reactions we see every day. You’ll come away with new insights to help you better understand your dog or cat. 🐾

Quick heads up — tickets for the Dog Business & Behaviour Summit close tonight at midnight.

If you’ve been thinking about it, this is one of those “I actually need this” weekends.

Friday (Business) → fixes the stuff that quietly drains you

• A website that actually converts (instead of just existing)
• Clear, simple ways to use AI so you’re not drowning in admin
• Systems so you’re not reinventing the wheel with every client

Saturday (Behaviour) → gives you answers you’ve been missing

• What’s really driving aggression — and what to do about it
• How to prevent and handle resource guarding without escalating things
• Safer ways to work through complex cases
• How to talk to clients when things are hard (and keep them on board)

If you’ve ever thought:
“I wish I felt more clear/confident/organized…” — this is that.

👉 One day or both
💻 In-person or virtual
🎥 Recordings included

Use code CITYDOGS for 12% off before midnight.

This is the kind of weekend that changes how you work (and makes everything feel a whole lot easier).

I’m proud to share that I’ve passed the IAABC CDBC certification exam with a score of 97%.

This process goes far beyond training techniques—it demands a deep understanding of behaviour, critical thinking, and a commitment to ethical, evidence-based work.

In an unregulated industry, raising the standard matters—not just for professionals, but for the dogs and people we support every day.

I wouldn’t be here without the dogs who challenge and teach me, the clients who trust me with their homes and lives, and the colleagues who continue to push this industry forward.
