Specialized Dog Training for Trauma and Behavior
Hey there, I'm Robin, on a mission after a life-changing dog bite. I help large and giant size dogs overcome issues like aggression, fear, and reactivity.
My focus? Dogs dealing with trauma – let's rewrite their stories together.

“If I'm being very honest, had we not had Robin's intervention, I don't know that we would still have our girl today."

“We have a comfort in our house that we didn't have before starting. You really did transform our ability to live together."
In Home Dog Training in London Ontario
I practice a specialized method for reactivity, and other serious behavior issues: Behavior Adjustment Training or BAT.
It is empowering, humane, relationship focused, and particularly helpful for dogs living with the effects of trauma.
My programs are exclusively private lessons, in person or virtually.
This is not traditional dog training. Here is what I offer:
-
A deeper understanding of your pup
-
Basic manners lessons focused on real life skills
-
Practical handling skills designed for big dogs
-
Expert methods for fear, frustration, and reactivity
-
A trauma-informed approach backed by science
-
A transformed relationship with your canine

"Even after just the first session with Robin, my stress level went from 11 to 3."
Positive Dog Training for Large & Giant Breeds
I've spent my life around large and giant breed canines so I understand their unique challenges and needs.
I grew up around GSDs and in my adult life I fell in love with the Mastiff type - the breed group that I am most familiar with.
My current pup is a Boerboel / Ridgeback living with the effects of brain trauma.
My previous rescue was an English Mastiff mix who came to us with severe aggression.
Add to all that my formal education and I am uniquely qualified to help the biggest of canines with the biggest of feelings.
Big-dog training can be humane. I can show you how. Right here in London Ontario.
The methods I employ do not require painful devices, harsh punishments, or any of that alpha/dominance stuff.
Do you like the sound of that? Set up an intro call with me to find out how I can help.
We do not currently offer puppy or k9 obedience classes in London Ontario as we favor the value that we can provide in the context of the private instruction. Group classes can make a great learning and socialization experience and are a fun way to practice obedience with lots of distractions and we may offer them in the future.
