The Dog School is located at 4333 W 10th Ave (Unit 1) right near the UBC Gates!
We're a purpose-built, 900 square foot dog training studio designed specifically for puppies and dogs. Our classes are run indoors in our facility that is not shared with other programs so we can ensure cleanliness and optimum puppy safety.
All classes are taught by Dr. Sarah Shapiro-Ward (CPDT-KA, KPA-CTP) and Katrina Per-Carruthers (BA Psychology, CASI-CBST pending), co-founders of The Dog School. Between them they bring over 15 years of professional experience and a genuine passion for helping owners throughout their dog's life from puppyhood, through the teenage phase and into adulthood.
Everything we do is 100% force-free. Positive reinforcement methods grounded in behavioural science. No intimidation, no aversive tools, no shortcuts that create problems down the road. Want to know more about what makes us special? Learn more ABOUT US
