Feeling stuck with training or unwanted behaviors and unsure what to do next? Overwhelmed by all the advice out there? You’re not alone and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

Hello and welcome! I’m Nikki, a certified, professional dog behavior consultant (CDBC, CBCC-KA, FFCP), dog mom to three rescue pups, and the owner of Airdrie Puppy Pals. With up-to-date education and over ten years of experience, I’m here to help guide you with positive, effective, dog training and behavior solutions.

What is Private Training?

Private training is tailored to your dog and your goals. I can help with puppy basics like house training, chewing, and crate comfort, as well as building everyday skills such as polite greetings, walking calmly on leash, and coming when called. If you’re looking for support with reactivity, fear, separation stress, or anxiety, I offer clear, step-by-step guidance to help you and your dog meet your behavior modification goals. From improving focus and communication to navigating more complex behavior concerns, we’ll work together to create practical, positive, realistic solutions that fit your daily life.
